When your back hurts, your life hurts. Chronic back pain makes going about your business very difficult. Turning to your doctor doesn't always help.
Back pain sufferers know better than anyone: Our healthcare system is broken. Surgeons, physical therapists, and physicians offer conflicting advice. Surgery is costly and often ineffective. Health insurance severely limits treatment options. Out of desperation, doctors prescribe opioids that cycle patients towards dependence. Meanwhile, Americans lead high-stress, sedentary lives that perpetuate back pain.
The good news is that America is shifting toward prevention and more natural healing methods and spine surgeon Kamshad Raiszadeh, MD is leading the way. In Take Back Control: A Surgeon s Guide to Healing Your Spine Without Medications or Surgery, he makes a compelling case that, for many back and neck pain sufferers, medically supervised therapeutic exercise is much more effective than current treatments.
Based on what s worked for thousands of patients in his California-based SpineZone Medical Fitness clinics, Dr. Raiszadeh outlines the science-based principles you can use to get stronger without surgery or meds. You'll learn:
Why our fragmented, expensive, and inefficient healthcare system so often fails at treating back pain
How to ensure you get the right care at the right time, for effective pain relief
Why strengthening is the #1 secret for long-term back health...and the surprising reasons that so many people fail to do it right
How even the most debilitated patients can substitute their own body's endorphins for addictive prescription drugs
Insider tips for developing the positive habits and support you need to succeed
Sprinkled with practical tips and real life stories that illustrate Dr. Raiszadeh's lessons, Take Back Control is the perfect read for those who are ready to take responsibility for their own health and reclaim a more joyful, active life.
About the Author
Kamshad Raiszadeh, MD, is a clinical instructor at the University of California, San Diego, founder/director of the Spine Institute of San Diego, and chief medical officer and co-founder of SpineZone Medical Fitness. He is a board-certified, fellowship-trained spine surgeon, member of the Scoliosis Research Society, and expert in minimally invasive surgery with an active surgical practice in San Diego, CA. He believes that we each deserve a life of vitality and full function and that we can create it for ourselves by actively engaging in our recovery from chronic back pain.
Dr. Raiszadeh has an unusual perspective for a spine surgeon. Early on in his career, he realized that for most chronic back and neck pain patients, surgery is rarely the best solution. Convinced that there must be a better way, he and his team set about designing, developing, and perfecting a program that utilizes the best science in back care administered by different spinal specialists to empower patients. The team uses a high-tech, high-touch method to closely monitor patients and guide them through the program.
Over the past 10 years, his group has grown SpineZone into a highly successful, non-operative, multi-specialty clinic that has been shown to decrease or eliminate the need for surgery, injections, and addictive opioids. Besides its emphasis on strengthening weakened core muscles, SpineZone has used education, self-empowerment, and psychological health techniques to help close to 7,000 patients enjoy full and lasting recoveries.
