Back In Control – A Surgeon’s Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain

Dr. David Hanscom is a leading orthopedic spine surgeon at the Swedish Neuroscience Institute in Seattle, WA. Though he believes that surgery and medication have a role, he knows that these standard courses of treatment aren’t what’s needed to treat chronic pain.  Instead he provides the framework so the patient can find his or her solution allowing them to live free of pain, forever. His method, which transforms all kinds of pain, including back, neck, arthritis, fibromyalgia, and migraines, is explained in BACK IN CONTROL A Surgeon’s Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain.

As a leading spine surgeon that performs back + neck surgeries – you operate ONLY on patients that you are certain will find relief through surgery.  You say there are more unnecessary back surgeries being performed by surgeons now more than ever before – even since your first book was published 3 years ago. You say that the medical world is overlooking the fact that in order to relieve pain, the person must get to the root of their pain – anxiety – and the amped up nervous system that accompanies it. Surgery is not always the answer – in fact in most cases, back and neck surgeries create more pain and problems for the patients, because one’s nervous system must be calmed down in order to live pain-free.
