Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This highly engaging title offers a concise, state-of-the-art overview of the management of sciatica and chronic pain. Written by a well-known neurologist, the book explores the multifaceted approach to the management of sciatica and chronic pain from many viewpoints, including the pharmacologic and surgical, as well as less orthodox methods. In discussing the many different aspects of pain – including neural networks, neural transmitters and genetic viewpoints – the book also provides a thorough review of how various factors interact to make us perceive pain. Importantly, the neuroscience and medical jargon that goes with the field is minimized by the author by defining terms as they are introduced and providing a glossary with definitions of key terms. Contributing to the unique nature of this highly instructive book, three patients with sciatica and chronic pain are followed serially throughout the text to illustrate important concepts that are discussed. A wide range of charts, figures and tables help clarify new concepts as well. Practical and illustrative, Sciatica and Chronic Pain: Past, Present and Future will be of great interest to a wide audience, including medical trainees and practicing physicians at all stages of their careers.

Every time I attempted to raise myself to a sitting position, pain shot through my lower back and into my left hip and buttock..." Does this sound familiar to you? That was 6 years ago when I first experienced the shocking sciatica pain. Horror could not begin to describe how I felt that day. For the next 12 weeks I went through hell and back. Through a series of non-surgical treatments, exercises, and stretches, I have been back pain free & have not needed to see a healthcare professional for sciatica since then. I continue to care for my back with stretching, walking and sometimes back strengthening exercises. Oh, and every now and then, I also treat my back to spinal decompression at the chiropractor’s office. The single most important thing I learned through my ordeal with sciatica is that there is no way any doctor can tell every patient everything he or she needs to know and, unfortunately, most patients don’t know what questions to ask. This is why I wrote "Sciatica No More." I am hoping that this book will help people learn about their conditions, learn of the many treatment options, learn to live within the limitations of their bodies and learn to live free from sciatica pain.

This excruciating pain extending from a person's lower back and sometimes as far down as their foot can be life changing. Many people are affected by Sciatica and feel as if nothing but surgery can help them. In my experience as a board certified Doctor of Physical Therapy, I have seen that there is a lot of misinformation out there regarding this condition. Therefore, my goal with this publication is to educate people who are suffering from Sciatica and help them get their normal lives back. Most often, people can be helped tremendously with conservative treatments however they are unsure of what to do to accomplish this. The treatments that I have included are clinically proven in the research community and in my own personal clinical experience. I describe these treatments in detail and show their appropriate progressions. I also list my free supplemental videos for the exercises talked about on my YouTube Channel: Physical Therapy 101. The videos not only show the exercises but show how to correctly perform them which is essential to recovery.Sciatica Nerve Pain does not have to be debilitating, it can be treated effectively with conservative management. With correct treatment, people can return to their daily lives without being affected by this condition.
