I bought this for a friend who recently had back surgery. Apparently, he likes the book as his back pain is diminishing.

Cure Back Pain with Yoga
I had been SUFFERING with constant sciatic pain for over 2 years. I was told that I had a herniated L4 and L5 and would need surgery. Approximately, at the same time, I read an article in the NYTimes describing my condition and Dr. Loren’s treatment . I immediately called his office and made an appointment. After his examination and use of an EMG , he diagnosed me with one of the worst cases of piriformis syndrome he had ever seen. After several months of aggressive physical therapy I had total relief from pain. For 2 years after therapy I diligently did certain yoga stretches prescribed by Dr. Fishman. I have been PAIN FREE since 1992!!! Sight unseen, I would recommend this book. Carolyn Z.

The book is structured with a description of the conditions the yoga pose is intended to help. I had been unsuccessful in finding information about piriformus syndrome and found the book informative with helpful exercises.
I found Yoga being used in some therapeutic programs for my son. I also bought Richard Hittleman’s 28 day program of yoga some time ago when I had decided to try to get back into shape and found it a great way to begin an exercise program.

Cure Back Pain with Yoga
I had chronic back pain for 13 years. Sometimes to the point of not being able to walk. After many years, I could “manage it” to a point but was often limited in what I could do actively. I kept asking my Chiropractor if there was anything I could do on my own to save my back and he always said no.
After being fed up with going to the chiropractor over and over and not getting better, I was convinced that there must be a way I could help myself. I found this book and another one. The first one did not really help. Then “Cure Back Pain with Yoga” arrived in my mailbox.
The next morning, I tried some of the exercises in the book. Then I ran about six miles without any pain whatsoever! I never see the Chiropractor anymore. I now have a great sense of when I have back pain what is the cause and how to fix it – a huge freedom. I run every morning and I have this book to thank for being able to do so.
To anyone with back problems, I recommend this book full heartedly.
