Think How Much $ Business Owners Lose to Back pain Absenses

My dad has had back problems for decades, so this book interested me. You can see the author on the morning show at http://bookbonuses.com/. I'm one of the many people offering a bonus to support the launch of this book, because I know how important this issue truly is to all of us, whether we know it or not. What I like about this book is the fact that it is more than a book with stretches and facts about back pain. Oh, you'll get some helpful hints for sure, but stress and nutrition are also a HUGE part of back pain. Did you know this? I didn't until this book...Half of the work force will miss work due to back pain this year. So think about this... How many worker's comp claims are because of back pain or injuries related to stress? How much do companies lose annually because people are absent due to back pain? How much would it help the economy if businesses (huge corporations on down to small businesses) taught employees to be healthy? This book is written like your best friend is helping you out. It is easy to follow. Even if your back feels great today, order the book and discover how to eat for a healthy back and how to keep stress in check. Be sure to order 3 copies. One for you, one for a loved one, and one for your boss or co-worker.

Live Better and Happier

It is a rare pleasure to find a book that can truly surprise you, but that is exactly what "The Truth About Back Pain" did for me. It was a joy to read and filled with many "aha moments!" The reader is guided through with thoughtfulness and humor delivered in an uncomplicated style that shares practical advice supported by research, patient & personal experiences and experts in health on how to better understand what back pain is telling us and how to be proactive in one's health choices. The process in the book is both logical and thought provoking in how to approach and investigate all healthcare needs, and has a unique blend of information from western and eastern medical practices supported by exceptional insight of more than 40 years of chiropractic and life experience. In addition, there is a healthy diet plan, practical stretches/exercises and great stress reducing techniques that can be immediately implemented. I have already begun this process in my own life with great results. What makes this book so special is the direction it provides in improving one's overall quality of life by sharing an approach that is full of balanced choices and a positive attitude that will make you feel better in mind, body and spirit. Thank you to Dr. Todd Sinett and his father Dr. Sheldon Sinett for providing all of us with a clear roadmap to live better and happier.

A Must Read

I've read many books about back pain and this was the first one that I felt presented compelling options that I haven't explored and am excited to try. I found the book to be extremely well written, witty and easy to follow for a non-medical person. The arguments the authors make are very compelling and insightful. I truly enjoyed this book.

Practical and simple

Often times one starts to read a medical or self-help book only to find that after a few pages your eyeballs rollover and you can't follow the author's advice because it is too technical and over the average reader's head. This book is truly written to offer the average person practical yet simple ways to possibly avoid back pain and the general aches and pains usually connected to aging. It also offers the reader some eye opening alternatives to the established medical community with documented and well constructed arguments for "thinking outside the box". I really enjoyed reading this book. I have already implemented some of the easier to do things and I am committed to trying some of the others. This is a must read for the typical aging adult.
