Synopsis

This patient handbook provides an easy-to-follow self-treatment plan to quickly and effectively diagnose, alleviate, treat and manage debilitating back and related pains, even for the long-term sufferer. First in the best-selling " Treat Your Own" Series, written by internationally-acclaimed Physiotherapist Robin Mckenzie OBE CNZM, this book distils the essence of the McKenzie method(R) of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy(R), as taught to medical and other health professionals globally, in an easily accessible format, direct to the sufferer. Now available for the first time in audio, the print version of this charmingly written handbook has been translated into 18 languages and has sold millions of copies worldwide. Numerous international studies have confirmed that the McKenzie Method(R) and the advice contained within 'Treat Your Own Back' allows patients to take control of the own pain and postural management, cure sciatica amongst other complaints, avoid surgery and unnecessary dependence on pharmaceuticals and/or clinicians - thereby reflecting Robin McKenzie's selfless determination to put the patient first and empower self-care.

"If it possible to teach a patient to treat themselves, every patient is deserving of that education and every clinician is obliged to provide it" - Robin McKenzie OBE CNZM

Goodreads review by Bridgey on January 27, 2022

Well, it’s cheaper than physical therapy ! Actually, it’s surprisingly quite fascinating + useful in helping me understand my back issues in layman’s terms. So far, the tips and tricks have also been successful in pain mitigation. If this works, this book is my new bible.......more

Goodreads review by Heidi on April 03, 2008

It really works. The exercises and approach here are very simple, logical and all about common sense practices that gradually get you back to full movement and strength- without pain. I don't want this review to sound like a testimonial, but the information was very useful, and I enjoyed the Austral......more

Goodreads review by Stan on August 14, 2010

For any that have chronic back pain or just a sore back I highly recommend this book!! Easy to read with simple but frequent excercises which really work. I have only been doing these excercises for 3 days and my back which over the last 12 months has been treated by both physiotherapists and chirop......more
