Does it help only an aching back or if there is a real physical problem? I have two herniated discs, arthritis and degeneration of bone in lumbar spine, sacroiliac joints and hips. I cannot sit without pain for more than 40min. Looking for answers. I am not interested in surgery just yet, hoping to find a more conservative approach.

Please Act On This Information
Posted: 10-08-04 12:40pm

Hi there. I urge you to visit www.Mattfurey.Com. It contains the answer to your problems. Surgery is not the answer. The book advertised on the site called "combat conditioning" includes an amazing exercise called bridging. This involves supporting you entire weight on only your forehead and feet, stomach facing up. Now I realise this may sound extreme but stay with me. The book also happens to contain the best exercise system on the planet. Please I am begging you to act on this post it will change your life. I know how horrific back pain can be and this system cured me and thousands of others worldwide. Please visit the site. Let me know of your success!!!

This place that someone keeps telling people to go is not for everyone. I went to it and some exercises won't help the pain in the back. I know for I have been dealing with this pain in the lower back since 1997. I am tired of taking pills so that is why I am having the surgery to take care of the detereating discs from the degenerative disease. If someone has tried these exercises from mattfurey.Com, please let me know.

there are things far worse than "taking pills", some are a direct result of surgery. I'm not willing to give up walking yet, so i'll keep my pills. When I can no longer function normally with pillls, then i'll consider surgery. I have never felt high or "good" on any pills, I have been able to feel and function normally like I did years ago before the pain came, even if for only a few hours.

I'm not saying your wrong, just every person's conditions are different and pro's and con's must be considered by you in detail. Why because it's not the surgeon's back being cut.

Try This Device For Recurring Back Problems...
Posted: 01-19-05 16:56pm

...I have chronic back pain from work (ups driver!) and had neither the time nor the money to be constantly running to the doctor or the chiropractor. This is great for muscle tension and misalignments. Work your back every day!

i wonder if just simple strechs and regular physical activity wouldn't do just as much. Since I had the disc replacement surgery about a month ago, I have found that "icy-hot" and streching has been almost miraculous for pain reliefe. I am a 32 year old and I wouldn't hesitate to go through this surgery again. It is really helpful and I have become so much more of a person since this surgery. It is very invasive but worth the pain and suffering for the resulting effects!

Helping People With Back Pain
Posted: 10-28-05 19:41pm

I have suffered pain for more than 20 years, I had an herniated disc and the surgery didn't improve my symptoms because I got an infection in the postoperatory period.

That is why 4 years later i've got an spinal stenosis due to a calcification that was pressing the spinal cord so the second surgery was necessary. After this procedure I had some relief but a few years later it started again as a burning sensation and numbness in my leg.... The neurosurgeon and orthopedics didn't help me so I tried with acupunture and fisiotherapy, finally and looking myself in internet I realize that I was suffering from sympathetic reflex dystropy syndrome and now I am trying with tens and gabapentin, and although I am felling better I still have a lot of symptoms and I am using and orthesis.

Due to this history I realize that one of the best thing that I could do is to help people with chronic pain and in my free time I have made a site that I invite everyone to visit it is still in process but there is a lot of information that you can find there about pain, mechanisms and things you can do to improve your pain and also news about new treatments.

I invite you to visit my site at http://www.Painreliefadvisor.Co m

I Have Had Lower Back Pain As Well
Posted: 10-29-05 20:32pm

Hi I am new to this forum and after reading all of your posts I felt compelled to add my two cents.

I have had lower back pain and sciatica or years. Doing exercises actually helps. I used to be a ski patroller but finally gave it up (too old ha ha ha). Just can't compete with the teens anymore.

I have to sit a lot on the computer and after an all day session I found that 5 minutes of doing strech exercises is just awesome.

Before the ski season arrives (every year) I actually do a series of exercises by following a video program I bought years ago when I had double sided acl (on the last day of skiing - putting in over 45 days that season). I am not sure that the series is still available but I find it awesome. It is called: 8 mins abs, 8 mins stretch, 8 min arms, 8 min legs, 8 min buns (and your buns will be burning). The telephone number, if anyone is interested (mind you, I am not sure whether it still is valid) was 18007217173 by telamericamedia, inc - 2044 spruce street - philadelphia - pa 19103

good luck and enjoy the excercises (no it is not a network marketing company - at least I don't think so, no there is no affilate marketing or anything else attached to this info), just in case you are wondering why I am sharing this.

Create an awesome weekend
