5.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Back Book, January 5, 2001
By 
"michjeri" (Richardson, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ultimate Back Book (Paperback)
I highly recommend this book. The book starts with a detailed account of the anatomy of the spine including parts of discs, and muscles surrounding the central nervous system. Next Ms. Fine proceeds with explainations of exactly what can go wrong. I particurly think that the malfunctions and usual age groups that they happen is helpful. She goes further to arm you with the knowledge of the biases that specific types of doctors may have towards certain procedures/diagnosis. An example is that a surgeon will, most likely, want to operate thus, finding a solution to your pain. The book includes self examinations and exercises. Also there is a history of what doctors have prescribed for back pain in prior years. Finally some advice as to how to live with pain and how to better manage that pain. I think this book becomes far more important in the age that we live. It is now, more than ever, time to take charge of your own health-whether it be diagnosis or progression towards managing pain.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource, October 3, 2010
This review is from: The Ultimate Back Book (Paperback)
Having read many books on back pain (herniated disc in particular), I found this book to be a refreshing change from the narrow focus usually provided in other books on this subject. Most of the other books are written by doctors which, you would assume, would make them superior. However, Judylaine is able to surpass these other books because she can step-back and give an honest assessment of all treatment options available. She can back-up what she ways with the investigation she has done on avaialabe medical studies. In addition, she has a sense of humor which will strike-home with anyone who has waded-through the process of trying to get a straight-story from the medical professionals on the efficacy of various treatment options. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has back pain. I was so lucky to find it at out local library.
