Format:Paperback
I read the reviews of others before deciding to buy this book. I have just had my first attack of sciatica following previous back pains. I visited an osteopath who explained all the relevant features of my condition but it was difficult to understand fully the implications of what she was telling me. This book filled in the gaps and allowed me to drastically improve my condition by self-help exercises and improving my posture. Yes, the book is simplistic in it's approach and detail but that adds to it's effectiveness. On page 6 he descibes 3 halves as equaling a whole but I can forgive his error and the repetitiveness and rhetoric.... I hope what I have learnt from this book will prevent future recurrences and I believe it was money well spent.

This book is a pleasure to read--uses understandable terms--which makes it easy and even fun to read and gain useful facts. One of the above reviews is critical of the simple, easy-to-understand way the book communicates with the reader. Some authors try to impress you with their "extensive vocabulary" rather than really try to inform the reader. The book reveals the causes of sciatica, the various natural, alternative and medical remedies available--and how to avoid flare-ups. The book is well worth the money. I personally have found welcome relief from my sciatica pain following just one of the tips covered in this easy-to-read book.

Format:Paperback
With the millions of people out there that suffer from low back pain and sciatica-information is scarce! This book breaks the surface and let's you know how to do things that will help your pain.Not clinical or very in depth BUT it is written to help you solve your pain in terms we all can understand.It makes you feel that you are not alone in your pain and at the same time you wonder why more information and help isn't available for this common malady. I liked the book for what it tries to do-HELP WITH BACK PAIN RELIEF

Too simple, sometimes inaccurate and changes focus.
This book simply "skims" the issue of sciatica. It barely touches on extraspinal causes of radiculpathy which medical science is beginning to address. Read more

This book has changed my life for the better. Sceptical at first, I tried some of the natural and alternative remedies outlined in the book. Read more

Covers a lot of ground, but not in detail.
Found that the book covered many many different treatment types including alternative therapy methods, most of which I have taken - I'd rate it pretty good in explaining most of... Read more
