4.0 out of 5 stars Kate Montgomery's Twelve Steps to Relief, December 30, 1999

This review is from: End Your Carpal Tunnel Pain Without Surgery: A Daily 15-Minute Program to Prevent & Treat Repetitive Strain Injury of the Arm, Wrist, and Hand (Paperback)

After having suffered with debilitating pain in both wrists up to my shoulders for over one month, I found Montgomery's book on our local public library shelf. Eager to find relief from my pain that would take me off painkillers and a way from needless surgery, I read her book and applied her twelve steps. I found some relief immediately and over two days I was tremendously better. I also believe her point that 90% of carpal tunnel surgery is unsuccessful. Her methods work and I would recommend them to all carpal tunnel pain sufferers.

5.0 out of 5 stars ended my pain, February 2, 2001

By 

Pat Ford (Phoenix, AZ United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: End Your Carpal Tunnel Pain Without Surgery: A Daily 15-Minute Program to Prevent & Treat Repetitive Strain Injury of the Arm, Wrist, and Hand (Paperback)

Suffering from wrist pain that would not allow me to pick up anything heavy and sent me wretching with pain when I simply rotated my wrist at a dance class. I suffered for about four months and it seemed to be getting worse not better. Then I researched the web and found a carpal tunnel chat line. Person after person reported surgery that didn't work at all or pain that came back after six months or a year. 3 people used Kate Montgomery's method and all reported success. I purchased the book. I started working the suggested program and had relief in about a week. I was consistant with the program for several weeks. The pain totally went away. I still occasionally do some of the exercises. I have been pain free for over 18 months, now. Please try this before surgery. It worked for me!

I would just like to add my endorsement to the many that you have already received. I have been living with borderline carpel tunnel syndrone for almost 20 years. I have talked to a surgeon, had the test and elected to manage it myself with night time splints and Vitamin B. However, recently, heavy gardening (which I love) had driven me to the point of almost continual numbness and tingling in both hands. Since my income depends on the painting that I do and since my husband and I are about to start building a house, I had begun to consider surgery again when I ran into this book accidently at the library.
Thank goodness for that bit of good luck!
I started the massage immediately and miraculously have been free of the numbness and tingling ever since.....about a month now....I am ordering the sports balm and will pass along word on the book and method to any one who needs it.
