Overview

Pain. It can be low, pounding, never-seems-to-go-away pain or stabbing, piercing, want-to-scream-at-the-top-of-your-lungs pain. I've watched chronic pain slowly eat away at a life. Sixty years ago my mother was one of the first to have a new surgical procedure to relieve her pain. It didn't work. Years later her pain finally ended her life shortly after her 40th birthday.What is pain? You know what it is: it's your nervous system telling you that something isn't right and it hurts. Pain is a complex process and it can vary from one person to the next even if they have similar injuries or illnesses. The American Chronic Pain Association simply says that ""It's hard to know how to move forward once chronic pain has entered your life. It helps to think of a person with chronic pain like a car with four flat tires."" It may take more than one type of therapy or treatment to get the car (your life) moving again. ""A thorough collection of things to consider if dealing with chronic pain. Drugs, modern and alternative, OTC and ones to avoid. Treatments new and medieval. Just enough information about each option to let chronic pain sufferers know whether this is an avenue they should pursue."" --Jeff H. ""This book will expand your possibilities for finding an effective source of chronic pain relief. More than just a list, Alan Smith explains each entry in layman's terms while also providing background information, research credentials, advantages and disadvantages, with helpful warnings about possible side effects or addiction."" --Bob Moody, author of The Terror of Indiana: Bent Jones & The Moody-Tolliver Feud ""Chronic pain issues combined with poor meds management can be lethal. Smith's book offers new hope for the not-infrequently damaging and sometimes possibly lethal pain management programs of the past. I am excited by the future possibilities within."" --Molly G. From the 101 Tips Series Loving Healing Press

Author Information

I put my journalism degree to work again doing research and interviews in 2005. My first health book was published in 2007. How To UnBreak Your Health received lots of very positive reviews including Midwest Book Review, Reader Views, Clarion Reviews and Booksville Literary Reviews along with many others. After a few years and more research the updated edition was published, How To UnBreak Your Health, which featured over 300 listings in more than 150 different categories. Once again it was published by Loving Healing Press.A few years later I decided to try my hand at fiction so I wrote an novella, Susan's Search. It was about what happens when your search for a solution to your health problem takes you far from home and disrupts your life. More recently I wrote a book on a single topic, 101 Tips for Better and More Healthy Sleep. This shorter, more focused format seemed to be more in line with the times and what readers were looking for in a health book. It was published in 2023.My latest book, 101 Tips for Chronic Pain Relief, is the book I'd wish I'd written in the beginning. I've watched chronic pain can do a person's life, slowly eating away at them until the body finally gives up and dies. My mother had a new surgical procedure developed in Europe to relieve the pain in her spine many years ago. It didn't work. Nearly ten years later the pain finally ended her life, she'd just turned 40.No one wants to suffer from chronic pain but if it happens to you, the only thing you want is for the pain to end. That's why I wrote this book, to help you find relief from your pain regardless of what it takes. I've also recorded dozens of podcast programs on a wide variety health treatments which are still available at: https: //www.unbreakyourhealth.com/podcasts.html
