    About this ebook

    The title says it all: this book will help you permanently banish your back pain. In two volumes, it shows you how to feel better.

    Volume 1: The Causes, makes it easy for you to understand your back pain. Using simple, clear language it explains the structure of your spine, and demystifies many common pain-provoking conditions.

    Volume 2: The Cures, offers a unique quiz that will help you to classify your injury into one of four types. In this way you will learn how to cure your pain, not someone else’s. Then the advice flows thick and fast. You will learn clever techniques that will help you to use your spine more efficiently, and discover how to think, eat, relax, and sleep away your pain. You’ll also find useful information on exercises, x-rays, medication and muscles, plus some tips on how to choose a spinal health practitioner. Of course, all of the advice will be tailored to your specific problem.

    Because the cure uses well-proven techniques, your relief won’t just last a few days or weeks. You will feel better forever.

    Author

    John Perrier

    John Perrier was born in Brisbane, Australia in 1967. Perrier has published five books across a variety of genres and subjects.His first book, published in 1999, was a self-help tome entitled 'Back Pain: How to get Rid of It Forever'. This book was an instant success in Australia, selling out its original print run. This book spawned an offshoot publication entitled 'Using Your Brain to Get Rid of Your Pain', which is a simple, commonsense guide on how to manage stress, reduce pain and think more healthily.Perrier has also penned three novels. The first, in the historical fiction genre, is 'Captain Rum - A Wondrous Adventure''. It chronicles the fantastic tale of Fintan McAdam, who set sail solo from London in 1821.The second novel is science fiction comedy for the young (and young at heart): 'A Few Quiet Beers with God'. Set in 2034, it follows the comedic mishaps of a young Australian named Dave who becomes entangled in a global power struggle.Perrier's third novel is a humorous travel biopic entitled 'Campervan Kama Sutra', a hilarious account of his family holiday across outback Australia with three kids. If you have half as much fun reading this as he had writing it then you are in for a treat!When he is not writing, Perrier likes to play basketball, cheer on his beloved Carlton Blues AFL side, potter in his herb garden, bush walk, play with his kids and listen to blues music. Occasionally he does two or three of these simultaneously.

      Professional Reviews for Back Pain

      REVIEW ONE

      This book is a comprehensive account of back pain offering a clear insight into this often complex topic. It offers the reader a genuine guide to managing this condition without the spurious miracle cure. His breezy, conversational style takes the reader through a number of the most important related issues including posture, exercise, diet and stress. He then deftly reviews current treatments and fads, exploding a few myths on the way.

      The end result? One of the most informative surveys of back pain to date. This is a must read for anyone who wants to be in control of one of the most out of control topics in current health care.

      REVIEW TWO

      Laughter is the best medicine. In this book there’s a regular dose of humour that will not only maintain your interest, but will undoubtedly help to lighten your back pain.

      This book contains quality information that is thoroughly explained, including a unique self-assessment quiz that assists readers to evaluate their own spinal pain. The author, using current research to support his methods, then guides the reader on how to successfully resolve their own problems in a step-by-step, logical manner. An excellent read.

      John Miller, B. Phty, MAPA

      Physiotherapist with special interest in back pain, Secretary of the PhysioWorks group.

      REVIEW THREE

      John Perrier has written the best self-help back book I have ever read. It's based on a mix of John's own methods for managing and preventing your own pain, and the most recent scientific data. I recommend it without reservation.

      Keith Charlton, Dr of Chiropractic, MACA

      Former Governor of Australian Spinal Research Foundation, President Australian Chiropractors Association (Qld) and Honorary Fellow of the Division of Science & Technology at Griffith University

      REVIEW FOUR

      Many of my patients are looking for the answer to managing chronic back pain. This book talks about self-treatment in a plain-English style, encouraging the reader to learn more about the way their body needs help to work effectively. Popular myths are dispelled and replaced with a treatment approach based on well-explained research and the knowledge of an experienced practitioner.

      In short, this text adopts a sensible, realistic and ‘do-able’ approach to self-management of chronic back pain.
