What Experts Are Saying
This book is an excellent resource for chronic pain patients. The book educates patients about pain in ways that are simple to understand, and then offers a large number of practical suggestions for individuals with pain. Most pain patients are unaware of the large number of things they can do themselves to better manage their pain and as such become overly reliant on doctors and healthcare systems. But our healthcare systems often make individuals with chronic pain worse rather than better, by offering excessive diagnostic testing, unhelpful surgery or injections, or potentially harmful drugs.

Reading Dr. Parks’ insights about an alternative way to view chronic pain has been eye-opening and provides a more optimistic approach in understanding and helping empower my patients. With information about the neuroscience of chronic pain and the adaptation of a more mind-body approach, I have realized that much of my previous treatment may not have been as beneficial as intended. This book should be mandatory reading for all medical students!

If you are on the roller coaster of medical treatments without relief, you need to hear what Dr. Parks has to say. If you are fed up and frustrated with pain and don’t like the life you are living, you need to hear what Dr. Parks has to say. It will not be easy. You will need to reconsider much of what you believe to be true, but the payoff will be well worth it.
