Overview

Free yourself from back pain without surgery!

Most of what you have been told about back pain is completely wrong. Now, for the frst time, Dr. Patrick Roth shares his groundbreaking and highly efective plan to alleviate back pain. His progressive and innovative approach will reveal how:

  • Back pain sometimes has little to do with the back.
  • Pain medications can cause more pain.
  • Weight loss does not improve back pain.
  • you know your body best. That makes you smarter than your doctor.

This back-strengthening program goes far beyond traditional abdominal core work to strategically target your "hidden core," including all the vital front, side, and back muscles that line, stabilize, and support the spine. Dr. Roth empowers your body and mind to remarkably decrease the frequency, intensity, and duration of back pain, giving you true and lasting relief.
