Imagine an orchestra in your brain. It plays all kinds of harmonious melodies, then pain comes along and the different sections of the orchestra are reduced to a few pain tunes. All pain is real. And for many people it is a debilitating part of everyday life. It is now known that understanding more about why things hurt can actually help people to overcome their pain. Recent advances in fields such as neurophysiology, brain imaging, immunology, psychology and cellular biology have provided an explanatory platform from which to explore pain. In everyday language accompanied by quirky illustrations, Explain Pain discusses how pain responses are produced by the brain: how responses to injury from the autonomic motor and immune systems in your body contribute to pain, and why pain can persist after tissues have had plenty of time to heal. Explain Pain aims to give clinicians and people in pain the power to challenge pain and to consider new models for viewing what happens during pain. Once they have learnt about the processes involved they can follow a scientific route to recovery. The Authors: Dr Lorimer Moseley is Professor of Clinical Neurosciences and the Inaugural Chair in Physiotherapy at the University of South Australia, Adelaide, where he leads research groups at Body in Mind as well as with Neuroscience Research Australia in Sydney. Dr David Butler is an international freelance educator, author and director of the Neuro Orthopaedic Institute, based in Adelaide, Australia. Both authors continue to publish and present widely.

Some people suffer from chronic, debilitating disorders for which no conventional treatment brings relief. Can marijuana ease their symptoms? Would it be breaking the law to turn to marijuana as a medication? There are few sources of objective, scientifically sound advice for people in this situation. Most books about marijuana and medicine attempt to promote the views of advocates or opponents. To fill the gap between these extremes, authors Alison Mack and Janet Joy have extracted critical findings from a recent Institute of Medicine study on this important issue, interpreting them for a general audience. Marijuana As Medicine? provides patientsâ€"as well as the people who care for themâ€"with a foundation for making decisions about their own health care. This empowering volume examines several key points, including: Whether marijuana can relieve a variety of symptoms, including pain, muscle spasticity, nausea, and appetite loss. The dangers of smoking marijuana, as well as the effects of its active chemical components on the immune system and on psychological health. The potential use of marijuana-based medications on symptoms of AIDS, cancer, multiple sclerosis, and several other specific disorders, in comparison with existing treatments. Marijuana As Medicine? introduces readers to the active compounds in marijuana. These include the principal ingredient in Marinol, a legal medication. The authors also discuss the prospects for developing other drugs derived from marijuana's active ingredients. In addition to providing an up-to-date review of the science behind the medical marijuana debate, Mack and Joy also answer common questions about the legal status of marijuana, explaining the conflict between state and federal law regarding its medical use. Intended primarily as an aid to patients and caregivers, this book objectively presents critical information so that it can be used to make responsible health care decisions. Marijuana As Medicine? will also be a valuable resource for policymakers, health care providers, patient counselors, medical faculty and studentsâ€"in short, anyone who wants to learn more about this important issue.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Your pain is real, and there is a reason for it. It can be cured, but you must first find the underlying cause of it. The problem is not in your head. It’s in your diagnosis. #2 Pain begins when neural pathways from the brain to the body are stimulated or fired. Over time, these pathways can become wired into the brain’s circuitry. The nervous system learns to create chronic pain, even though there is no serious medical condition in the body. #3 The brain, nerves, and pain are all connected. The brain can both create and cure chronic painful conditions. The three major components of the nervous system that create the vicious cycle of pain are the nerves that send pain signals from the body to the brain, the brain itself, where those nerve signals are interpreted, and the nerves that send signals back to the body. #4 Modern medicine is typically unable to solve the problem of MBS. You will learn how to cure yourself in this program.

Back pain is an individual problem, with a multitude of potential reasons and issues that can cause pain, some of which aren’t even related to the back. The most important aspect of overcoming back pain is the WHY. Why do you have pain? If you don’t have the WHY, then you’ll never know what to do to eliminate or correct the problem. In saying this, after over 20 years of clinical experience, I know that the most important step in anyone’s rehabilitation is to turn off the pain, then mobilise the neural system. These two steps alone will improve 90% of people’s issues. From this point, activating your glutes correctly and learning how to correctly activate the core will help strengthen and support the spine. This is essential for quality of life and preventing all types of back pain and back conditions. The final consideration with any muscular skeletal issue is to continue to move and strengthen the body once the pain has gone. This needs to be done by participating in a strength and conditioning program once or twice a week to prevent relapses and ensure that your functional levels don’t become dysfunctional.

Drug overdose, driven largely by overdose related to the use of opioids, is now the leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States. The ongoing opioid crisis lies at the intersection of two public health challenges: reducing the burden of suffering from pain and containing the rising toll of the harms that can arise from the use of opioid medications. Chronic pain and opioid use disorder both represent complex human conditions affecting millions of Americans and causing untold disability and loss of function. In the context of the growing opioid problem, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched an Opioids Action Plan in early 2016. As part of this plan, the FDA asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to convene a committee to update the state of the science on pain research, care, and education and to identify actions the FDA and others can take to respond to the opioid epidemic, with a particular focus on informing FDA's development of a formal method for incorporating individual and societal considerations into its risk-benefit framework for opioid approval and monitoring.
