Herniated Disc Articles
When writing the herniated disc articles on this site, it was important to give a complete picture of how
herniated discs
are
diagnosed
and
treated.
However, it is even more important to describe how they affect the average patient who must endure endless suffering from the often incorrect perception of what a disc herniation actually is…
Medical Herniated Disc ArticlesMisinformed Herniated Disc ArticlesOf course, we have not suddenly evolved into weak and failing creatures in a few generations time. Our spines are as strong as ever and possibly even stronger, due to the increased awareness of what it takes to be able bodied and healthy. The problems with our backs have always existed, but the source of pain is not in our spines… It is in our minds.The mind and body work together to create every state of good health and disease which we experience throughout our lives. Of course, there is considerable outside influence in the form of diet, lifestyle, injury, sickness and such… However, the mind and body have always and will always work together to create optimal health and fight adverse conditions which might make us sick or injured. Most back pain articles are full of technical information about spinal degeneration and how the changes in spinal anatomy MUST be the source of pain. Since when? Our collective spines have degenerated throughout history, yet never before have we blamed this normal process for causing pain. Is gray hair painful? Are wrinkles painful? NO… Sure, getting older can cause some aches and pains, but how does that explain the agonizing dorsopathy syndromes I see everyday which occur in mostly 25 to 50 year olds? It makes no sense from a purely physical point of view… To me, just like to the innovators in the field of mind/body medicine, the cause of most treatment resistant long term pain conditions is the psycho-emotional interactions between the mind and the body, not any theorized, but unproven structural abnormality. This thought is reinforced by the countless people who have herniated discs and other so called "back pain sources", but experience no pain at all... My Herniated Disc ArticlesIt is my hope that presenting a COMPLETE picture of what often causes back pain might help some of you to recover. Sure, disc injury can cause pain, there is no denying this fact. However, there is also no denying the amazing healing processes which we enjoy in our bodies. Why would 10 broken bones heal in a matter of weeks and one little herniated disc continue to hurt for years? Now that is illogical… It is even worse that the medical industry which is dedicated to helping back pain patients is the very source of most of the mythology surrounding disc conditions… It is a mockery of good science and ethical medical practice. I am not trying to get you to buy anything or become my patient. I have no selfish motives for providing you this information. I simply had to suffer enough for all of you during my own 18 year battle with unbearable back pain. I can’t stand to see others have to endure what I did… Especially when a real cure is available… You owe it to yourself to explore the alternate explanations for chronic herniated disc pain. Learn the facts and see for yourself…Herniated Disc Articles to Herniated Disc 4/21/09 Revised 7/18/11 |
