Pain can be devastating. It can lead to depression, loss of sleep, tension in the family and a reduction of productive hours on the job. Now, Dr. Richard A. Sternbach, director of the Pain Treatment Center at the Scripps Clinic and Research Foundation, presents a dramatic easy-to-follow program that he has found can help you take control of your pain -- and take control of your life -- while significantly reducing the amount of medication you may need. He targets the specific causes of pain -- sports injuries, back problems, migraines, arthritis and more -- and offers specific techniques to combat them, including:
* A comprehensive conditioning plan
* Prescription analgesics and nonprescription alternatives
* Proven relaxation exercises such as biofeedback
* Positive reinforcement from friends and family
* A psychological training program for changing the way you confront pain
* Plus, a complete chapter on how to manage cancer pain, and an appendix listing the major pain treatment centers across the country.
