Editorial Reviews

"Cindy Perlin has written a valuable guide to the understanding and treatment of chronic pain. The Truth About Chronic Pain Treatments is itself a valuable treatment- a marvelous compendium that will improve the wellbeing of anyone facing this very common problem. Perlin speaks in plain language with great authority and wisdom."

Larry Dossey, MD

"Exposes how common evaluations and treatments may not be in the best interest of the patient suffering with persistent pain. Institutional bias often favors potentially harmful and expensive interventions whilst ignoring or trivializing those that are essentially safe and may be as or more effective. Ms. Perlin chronicles patients who have been helped and encourages you to investigate alternative treatments so that you too may avoid needless expense and suffering."

Norman Marcus, MD

"Contrary to what most people believe, pain meds are not the solution to chronic pain. Find out why and what to do about it in this authoritative work."

Christiane Northrup, MD

"A comprehensive, impeccably researched debut handbook that focuses on alternative treatments for chronic pain. ...its all-embracing approach makes it suitable for laymen and health care providers alike."
