Free Yourself from Chronic Pain Paperback – April 1, 2008

A very informative book about a procedure, prolotherapy, I had on my fractured left knee not from a fall but from active osteoporosis.

Dr. Alderman is a pioneer in the field of Prolotherapy. She does a great job explaining what it is, how it works, what it feels like, what conditions it treats, and how the body reacts to this innovative treatment. I have had the good fortune of being treated with Prolotherapy for chronic tendinitis by Dr. Alderman. I am one of the people for whom the series of treatments was not effective, due to an underlying disease process of which I was unaware at that time. That being said, I believe in the Prolotherapy and I know other people who have benefitted greatly from it.

The book was clear and easy to read and I now have a much better understanding of Prolotherapy. The chapter on knees was excellent, it clearly explained, how prolotherapy could repair a bad knee. I also enjoyed the short blurb about her mom, I had a good laugh.However, I would have liked the book more, if a chapter on chronic headaches and slipping rib syndrome could have been included. Both common problems. Maybe, both problems could be included in a future book update or in a kindle edition.

I have several clients in the bodywork field who have been interested in this style of therapy . This book is a great quick reading overview to pass on to clients so they can have a more informed decision to live a pain free life .

It is easy to understand what prolotherapy is. The word of the book is easy to read. Prolotherapy is a miracle medicine.

Here's a book not written to other doctors or for future doctors. It's for the public. No greater gift for yourself or to give to others who are experiencing any kind chronic of pain. Your friends will thank you after reading this book. Check it out and give it a shot!

Amazing. Finally some relief. The book is well written and organized. The author is obviously extremely competent and appears to be genuinely interested in solving those issues addressed in the book. Way less expensive than a neurosurgeon or orthopedist.
