Alternative Medicine for Sciatica
* Sciatica and Dr. Sarno What is Alternative Medicine for Sciatica?Knowledge therapy is the term coined by the originator of this treatment, Dr. John Sarno, of the Rusk Institute of Rehabilitation Medicine/NYU Medical Center in New York City. Dr. Sarno broke free of the traditional back pain industry long ago and has achieved world renowned status using his purely knowledge based treatment for a wide range of health conditions. He began to use this logical and effective treatment to deal with the rising epidemic of back pain patients he encountered everyday and continues to focus on dorsopathy conditions to this very day.Does Alternative Medicine for Sciatica Work?Knowledge therapy dismisses the common mythologies of structurally induced back pain which have proven to be false in many clinical research studies. The patient is taught what IS causing their pain and what IS NOT causing it. More importantly, the patient is educated about why they have pain and how they can go about ending these agonizing symptoms forever using a simple non-medical, non-physical treatment program. Statistics for the effectiveness of knowledge therapy are astounding, with the vast majority of patients able to achieve complete resolution of all pain and neurological symptoms in a matter of weeks. The approach will not work for every patient, but demonstrates far better curative results than any other sciatica treatment, hands down…Alternative Medicine for Sciatica FactsKnowledge therapy IS…* Completely free for those who prefer to go to the library to find appropriate books. Low cost for those who prefer to buy their own books. * Easy to understand and easy to implement. * Highly effective at ending sciatica pain, as well as other ischemic pain conditions which might attack virtually any part of the body. * Risk Free with no side effects or negative implications at all. * A perfect tool for learning to create optimized mind/body health. * Clinically proven to work for millions of patients. Knowledge Therapy IS NOT… * Symptomatic treatment. * Based on old medical mythology. * Overpriced and under effective. * Some new age fad Alternative Medicine for Sciatica SourcesAlthough there are now many sources of knowledge therapy available, I still stand by some of the original books as my all time favorites. You can’t go wrong with any book by Dr. John Sarno or any of the other Tension Myositis Syndrome doctors who have studied under him. Dr. Andrew Weil is a constant voice of reason and information in the field of mind/body medicine. Dr.Candice Pert has written extensively on the subject, as well. Here are my top 3 choices for sciatica patients:#1 “Healing Back Pain” by Dr. John Sarno, is the definitive guide to finding back pain relief. It is simple, straight to the point and a short and easy read. I have read this book hundreds of times over the years and daily when I was fighting my own back pain. #2 “Cure Back Pain Forever” by Sensei Adam Rostocki, is my own best selling self help book which has been described by many patients as the perfect complement to Dr, Sarno’s work. It is written from the patient’s point of view and clarifies many of the techniques which patients struggle with such as journaling, understanding the subconscious and recognizing troublesome emotions. #3 “The Mindbody Prescription” by Dr. John Sarno, gives a wider look at the interactions between the mind and body and helps to clarify many of the points in his earlier works. The list goes on an on, but you can get the most from these three books for free at your local library or by investing less than $30 in paperback editions… Alternative Medicine for Sciatica AdviceKnowledge therapy is the exact treatment I used to cure my own torturous sciatica pain after 18 years of agony. I had tried all the traditional medical approaches, the various complementary healthcare techniques and even some wacky new age cures. Nothing worked and in fact, my pain grew progressively worse and more debilitating year by year. When I found Dr. Sarno and his knowledge based approach, I was hopeful, but guarded. Once I realized I had nothing to lose, I opened my mind to the pure logic of the treatment and found myself cured in a matter of weeks. It took me some time to gain the confidence that this treatment was an actual permanent cure and not just some placebo, so I continued to read the books for a couple of months. By this time, I had already been pain free for weeks and stayed that way. My only regret when it comes to knowledge therapy, is not finding it sooner, before so much of my young adult life was wasted in pain and so much time and money were squandered pursuing ineffective medical treatments around the world…The bottom line on knowledge therapy is simple. It is there if you want it. You can hold on to your diagnosis, continue to suffer and struggle with chronic sciatica pain for the rest of your life. OR, you can simply put down that huge burden and be pain free. Sound too good to be true? Yeah, that’s what I thought also… Well, let me tell you from experience, living pain free is even better in reality than it seems in theory. It is even better than true… It is a dream come to life for me and the millions of others who have chosen this path to health, rather than acquiesce to the suffering of their sciatica conditions… Sciatica Forum The Sciatica Pain Newsletter. 6/29/08 Revised 8/22/08
