Question
I have had back pain since the age of 18 am now 48 and have suffered many rounds of back spasms and sciatica.  Tried everything from Indocin therapy, chiropractic, massage, colchicine injections, accupuncture to Bikram yoga, which recently sent me into a major tail spin of crippling pain.  I stumbled onto the Somatics website and was lucky enough to find Thomas Hanna's book Somatics in our public library.  I read the book and started the lessons 3 weeks ago.  I am amazed at the transformation of pain relief and newly found flexibility.  I am re-reading the book and have devoured all the information availible on the web which includes some incredible information from you Lawrence Gold.  My question is will I have increased benefit from obtaining the information in your Free Yourself from Back Pain publication?  

Answer
In a word, yes.

But keep on with and complete Thomas Hanna's somatic exercises.  If you want, you may purchase those exercise instructions on audio CD.  It's called, "Outgrowing the Myth of Aging"; the advanced version is "Beyond Outgrowing the Myth of Aging."  (preview:  send blank email to [email protected])

Glad to hear of your success.
