Editorial Reviews

This book is an excellent resource for chronic pain patients. 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.

University of Michigan - Daniel Clauw

As a primary care physician responsible for a large number of patients, I was often overwhelmed when confronted with patients who were struggling with chronic pain. My resources were usually limited to an order for labs or imaging, a referral form, and my trusty prescription pad. Reading Dr. Parks' insights about an alternative way to view chronic pain has been eye opening and provided a much more optimistic approach in understanding and helping empower my patients.

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. You will need to reconsider much of what you believe to be true, but the payoff will be well worth it.

Certified Therapeutic Pain Specialist - Mike Terrell

I highly recommend this book. Read it, and you will learn that you can think of pain as a resource, a mislabeled physiological process, and event just pain, it's your choice. You will also begin to see that you already have competence in dealing with pain.

The ACT Matrix - Kevin Polk

Finally, a book that gives realistic hope to pain sufferers and their physicians! This book should change the paradigm for pain treatment.Patients who read it should immediately give a copy to their physician or find a physician with a similar perspective. The book is full of ideas for both patients and physicians to work together to relieve suffering.
