Do You Have Backache? This Book Will Put It Right

Back In Action

This easy-to-absorb reissue makes an excellent, informative companion for the popular, recently published Sarah Key's Back Sufferers' Bible

Sarah Key trained as a physiotherapist in Sydney before going to London in 1975. In 1976, she established the Sarah Key Physiotherapy Centre in the Harley street area of London  before returning to Sydney, where her practice has been based since 1987.

Back in Action offers advice on all aspects of back pain and treatments that are available for it in an easy-to-read question-and-answer format. Clear line illustrations make explanations even easier to understand. Contrary to popular opinion, well-known physiotherapist Sarah Key maintains that most back pain is not caused by disc problems, but simply by joint stiffness. Manual manipulation reactivates the joints and improves flexibility, according to Key, which means that treatment using the hands is the most successful in relieving pain. Key's 'hands-on' method has put thousands of grateful patients back in action.

You Can Treat Your Own Back!

The Back Sufferer's Bible

Straightforward, point by point, self-help manual to enable back pain sufferers to cure their own problems.

The first book showing how, in easily followed steps, you can treat your own back pain. Unlike the author's previous book Back In Action, which gives information on the range of treatments available for different back problems, The Back Sufferer's Handbook places emphasis on the contribution the sufferer can make putting the problem right. 
 
In language that every back pain sufferer will find completely understandable, it describes each spinal disorder and what causes the pain. It gives helpful back exercises with information about what they will achieve and how frequently they should be done. There is also advice on back pain management, the role of medication, the use of bed rest and how to return to work. 
 
This book is essential reading both for the patient confined to bed with acute back pain, and for someone with less severe back problems, but still having to cope with back pain or discomfort on an everyday basis.
