Chronic pain is a common medical problem shared by roughly 100 million
Americans-close to one third of the U.S. population. In the past few
decades there has been an alarming trend of using prescription opioids
to treat chronic pain. But these opioids-the main prescribed
analgesic-come with hidden costs, and this book reveals the
ramifications of their use and provides a low or no-risk alternative.
Armed with the right information, you can make informed decisions about
your pain care. By appreciating the risks and limitations of
prescription opioids, and by learning to reduce your own pain and
suffering, you will gain control over your health and well-being. Each
copy includes Beth Darnall's new binaural relaxation CD, Enhanced Pain
Management.
