A must-have if you have headaches or migraines, Aug 12 2008

Ce commentaire est de: Overcoming Headaches and Migraines: Clinically Proven Cure for Chronic Pain (Paperback)
Lisa Morrone, PT has become my new best friend. I read and have begun putting into practice the tips and techniques from her book, Overcoming Back and Neck Pain: a Proven Program for Recovery and Prevention and now I've found Overcoming Headaches and Migraines.Millions of us live with chronic and debilitating headaches that last a few hours or even days. Those headaches impact every aspect of our lives and our quality of life diminishes with the onset of every one of those nasty headaches. Millions of sufferers take over-the-counter remedies and many more millions (like me) take prescription drugs. While the remedies help initially, they can, over time, cause side effects and actually become less potent and even bring about rebound headaches. And that's not a good thing.
Overcoming Headaches and Migraines is a great help in that Morrone provides information that will help the sufferer uncover the source of pain, avoid unnecessary medication, help to reduce pain, avoid triggers to the pain and oh so many other issues. Her book is informative, comprehensive and goes beyond others I've read because Morrone provides, through photos and description a how-to of posture, lifting, stretches, and other exercises all to help relieve headaches. There is even a section that describes and shows the reader how they should sleep in order to minimize those night headaches.
Now the difficult part. This book is fantastic. But it requires commitment on the part of the reader. I suggest that the book be read, portions that pertain to the reader be marked and then, having all this information, you MUST follow Morrone's directions. You must keep a record, a daily headache diary, to help you focus in on the type of headache you have.
I have always believed that I suffer from migraines and currently take medication. After reading Overcoming Headaches and Migraines, I'm not so sure. My diagnosis is yet to come, but I have begun the journey to knowledge by starting my diary. I believe that by following Morrone's suggestions, all of them, I will be able to drastically reduce my headaches. The best scenario would be to get rid of them all, but I'm willing to take one step at a time. And that's a good thing.
Armchair Interviews says: A must have for every home reference library.
