Treat Your Own Chronic Pain: The Chronic Pain Bible for Doctors, Psychologists, and Clients
Treat Your Own Chronic The Chronic Pain Bible for Doctors, Psychologists, and Clients
This best possible use of this book will be by health professionals and clients working together, based on updated research. Readers are offered free access to supporting training and therapists are invited to upload their demonstration videos for debrief and discussion in order to support skilful implementation into their practices.
The overwhelming majority of chronic pain, some 94%, is non-malignant pain which is "out of kilter" with any pathology. This includes most back pain, post-surgical or post-injury pain, phantom pain, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis not in an inflammatory phase, and "mystery" pain.
Despite the evidence that no current treatment, being pharmaceutical, physiotherapy, or psychological, significantly relieves pain for the majority of the 1.5 billion sufferers worldwide, disappointingly, almost all current treatments and textbooks recommend strategies that we already know do not work very well, if at all. This includes the unfortunate recommendation of CBT and/or mindfulness which are known to have little or no effect on clients' pain levels. Likewise specific exercise programs are not superior to enjoying an active hobby.
This important book aggregates the most recent research into this type of chronic pain, comprehensively explaining a very new but robustly-validated theory of chronic pain, including an explanation of exactly why existing treatments fail so spectacularly for most people.
Finally you'll learn a completely new treatment approach, SDR Therapy (Sensory Disruption of Reconsolidation), which accurately and precisely addresses the true nature of chronic pain, being conditioned pain signalling, finally giving hope for significant resolution of this awful disorder. This is a book which has the potential to completely change the face of chronic pain treatment world wide.
