I Beat Back Pain So Can You

"This very personalised guide-book to the problems and solutions to chronic back pain is both comprehensive and meticulous in its approach. As a doctor I believe it is medically safe and sound as a valuable resource to those who have failed to benefit from the panoply of treatments for this disabling condition." Dr David Brownridge - Retired GP, Fellow of the BMA "This is an excellent read offering very sound and sensible advise to all "back pain" sufferers. The way Peter has written this book and the positive approach to his long term management is a credit to him and could be applied to many other medical conditions which involve immobility and pain." Magdeline Coomber - Retired Nurse "This book is brilliant, it gives lots of practical and useful information that you just won't find anywhere else." Heidi Barnsley IIHHT - Advanced Sport Therapist "Peter's book is inspirational, motivating, hopeful and reassuring. It encourages self-control, choice and independence. He is mindful of the relationship between conventional medicine and complementary therapies and his recommendations are not whacky off-the-wall ideas but practical and achievable approaches... Working as a nurse for nearly 40 years, I have seen many colleagues impacted by back injury, sometimes terminating careers early, often debilitated for lengths of time or seemingly permanently. If this book goes some way to improving health and well-being and self-worth, then it is worth every moment invested in reading it." Nicky West RGN, DN, Dip Pall Care, Cert MMt - Nurse & Hospice CEO "This book kept me on my toes at a time when depression was kicking in due to the inability to work and when everything was an immense effort. All the advice in this book is very valuable and is a must for anyone with any back problems, it has the ability to make you want to get up and restart your life." Denise Brown - Back pain sufferer "This book represents a victory for common sense and personal discipline to overcome back pain, that is achievable by anyone with little determination. Peter comes to the subject from a deeply personal perspective, he carefully weighs up various therapies and gives his considered advice in practical and achievable steps. The book confronts the difficulties head-on with compassion and clear thinking, it is an excellent read." Mr R L J Douglas-Bate "At last a book that speaks common sense! Written by someone who's walked the path of back pain and was determined to get back literally on his feet. This book is full of great practical advice. If you're serious about not being held back, this book is for you." Sallie Bate - Back pain sufferer "What better way to cure your back problems, than to learn from someone who has done it. 80% of people will suffer from a back problem at some point in their lives... Peter Johnson provides an honest, holistic approach to curing back problems. It looks at fear, exercise, work, diet and more in a practical, no-hype manner. It's a must read if you genuinely want to beat back pain in a natural way." Neil Fellowes - www.totalwellness.club "One of the most easily understood and informative books on back pain I have ever read. This book sets out ways in which you can deal with the problems and ensure that you don't suffer in the same way in the future" Lee Gough - Back pain sufferer "Having someone close to me who suffers periodically with a back problem, it is clear just how debilitating this can be. Peter's story is inspirational and demonstrates how even a severe back problem can be rectified without surgery. This book has made me more aware of my own habits and realise, as a young adult, the importance of taking responsibility for my own actions and lifestyle in order to help prevent back problems in later life." Hannah Marshall - Young adult and relative of a back pain sufferer
