A Novel Back Pain Reliever

Give this unusual pain reliever a try and see if it works.

What I'm about to share with you might look pretty odd at first, and that's because i t's designed to thoroughly mess up the pain signals. This seemingly crazy technique, detailed in the book "The Pain Train - Time to Get Off" is part of a program that's helped over 85% of people eliminate or dramatically reduce their pain.

Anything that "mixes up" pain signals has got to be at least a bit confusing, and I think you'll agree that this crazy-looking technique achieves that very successfully. But don't be fooled, this technique is getting rapid recognition from doctors all over the world. Here's a short taste.

Although you might have several areas of pain, or even just one area that is quite big, I want you to make a choice to focus on an area that is a maximum of one centimeter (or one inch - it doesn't matter), and only that area. Give that pain a rating out of 10 for how strong it is.

Now, while you're still focussed on just that spot, start tapping or pinching on your head, face, arms and chest (you can even include your legs and feet if that's convenient), and at the same time imagine that you're eating your favorite food, that you're sucking on a lemon, that you're licking sugar. You are giving yourself physical sensations as well as other sensory input, at the same time as you're focusing on that one spot.

Keep that up for a few minutes, then with your focus still on that exact spot, take a really deep breath through your nose, and powerfully blow through your mouth until your lungs feel really empty.

Now check that pain again in that precise spot. Most people will find that it's no longer the same, and that it has decreased, changed, moved, or gone altogether. You will probably get that pain back, but over a few days or weeks, you'll find it comes back less and less, until it doesn't return at all, ever.

Long-term back pain is possibly the most misunderstood problem that you could have, and that's why your doctor or physiotherapist hasn't been able to help you. Except for one lone Australian researcher, whose work you're about to be introduced to, most doctors are chasing "red herrings".

About The Author C A Sutherland is an Australian clinician who trains health professionals and clients to eliminate back pain.

If you have back or neck pain that isn't responding to treatment, this new method is worth checking out.
