How to Find Permanent Relief from Chronic and/or Acute Neck Pain, Back Pain, and Sciatica!
Well, it has been just about two weeks since I announced the latest Neck Pain, Back Pain, and Sciatica Relief Challenge and the response has been quite good. People are stretching, walking, and exercising their way to pain relief and a new life! I have quite literally received emails, Skypes, and telephone calls from all over the world…how incredible is that?
The challenge is a take-off on Earl Nightingale’s The Strangest Secret, and if you don’t know what it is or haven’t taken the 32 minutes you need to listen to this amazing recording, I will put the link blelow. It has been a part of my personal library for more that 30 years now, closer to 35, and I still listen to it whenever I get a bit off course…in any of life’s arenas! Earl Nightingale’s 30 Day Challenge has inspired me to do great things in the past because, after all, who can pull themselves up and go all out for 30 days?
And, the most amazing thing of all? Once you have done it once, you will find yourself doing it again and again. You see, you can apply it to virtually every area of your life and get amazing results.
I usually break my 30 day challenges down ever further and challenge myself each and ever day. This mindset, this technique has worked for everyone from 12 steppers in the various addiction programs to Tony Robbins’s students integrating CANI! into their lives:
Constant and Never Ending Improvement! CANI!
The fact is, we all have a sort of socio-cultural ADD/ADHD, in that, with so much going on in our lives and around us, it is often difficult to stay focused on a single task for very long, at least until we find out whether it works or not. Once we know it will pay off, it is usually a no-brainer…but until then it is often difficult to stay focused. Or, in my case, to keep people focused long enough for them to see for themselves that they can change their lives and achieve real and lasting neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief by applying a few sound principles and pain relief strategies.
Over the past 4 months, if you have been following along, you have experienced a profound change in your life.
Not only will you have experienced neck pain, back pain, and/or sciatica relief, you will have experienced a new energy level, new focus, newly found optimism, and an enthusiasm for life you may have thought was gone forever!
The momentum that comes from taking one day and building upon the day before, taking small and gradual steps, integrating one strategy and then another until you begin to experience a new and exciting life is contagious; and, the enthusiasm you experience spills over into virtually every area of your life!
I have lost weight, lost inches, found new energy and vitality, my neck pain (2 compressed vertebrae and one surgery), back pain (13 surgeries and everything from T12 to S1 is fused), and sciatica (see above!) are a thing of the past, and I quite literally have a new life!
All of the changes in my life, all of the improvements came as the result of a single step, a single decision I made to change my life!
The greatest things about my transformation and my neck, back, and sciatic nerve pain relief? I can do the following:
1) Pick up my granddaughters and hold them without having to be seated first!
2) I can walk my dogs and enjoy the outdoors again!
3) I am once again dating my wife, even making it to an Indians game this summer…for the first time in years!
4) I can live for more than a few hours without thinking about when my next pain medication dosage is!
5) I can drive and travel more than a few miles without being in agony because of the back pain and sciatica!
6) I can work in the yard!
7) I can read! Something I had all but given up because of the combination of the pain, particularly in my neck and back, but also because of the pain medication and its effect on my concentration. I can work out again! Something I had all but written off and missed terribly!
9) I can jog…yes jog! The proper shoes are crucial for this and don’t do this too soon!
10) I can be intimate with my wife!!! I am not going to draw you a picture but the combination of the pain and the pain medication was a definite libido killer!
I could go on for pages!
Ultimately, it is up to you, you can either continue as things are and forget about the rest of your life…or you can make a decision and put a plan into action!
I did and my neck pain, back pain, and sciatica are a thing of the past, they are no longer a factor in my life. I now follow a neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief and treatment strategy daily and it works. My life is my own once again, you can have yours…it is up to you!

The Neck Pain, Back Pain, and Sciatica Relief 30 Day Challenge Continues
With a Look at Failed back Surgery Syndrome and Chronic Back Pain
We recently dispelled the notion that degenerative disc disease is a disease, in much the same we have discarded the notion that failed back surgery syndrome is a syndrome. Failed back surgery syndrome is a not a syndrome, it is a reaction to a myriad of factors, a set of behaviors and stresses placed on the body generally and the musculoskeletal system, and the spine, specifically.
Failed back surgery syndrome begins, necessarily, with spine surgery at some level. Back surgery, and I am speaking about neck and back surgery when I refer to back surgery, is the ultimate deadend. There is no coming back from it, pun accidental but I’ll take it. Once you open Pandora’s Box, your body is never the same. Many, myself included, have said time and time again that we will not submit to more back surgery, only to plead for our surgeon to do the deed one more time.
The neck pain, back pain, and/or sciatica drives us to relent, to give in and give up, regardless of the incredible pain we know will be waiting for us upon awakening in the recovery room.
But this does not have to be the case! There is a solution, and it is not a painful one.
We simply have to change our habits and our behaviors in such a way that we deal effectively with the 5 factors I have spoken about at length:
1) Obesity or excess weight
2) Muscle weakness
3) Muscle imbalance
4) Inmproper diet and nutrition
5) Inadequate hydration leading to dehydration
If we deal with the 5 factors listed above and addressed previously, either before surgery or after, we may be able to:
a) Avoiding back surgery altogether by dealing with the 5 factors and thus alleviating and/or eliminating neck pain, back pain, and sciatica
Or
b) Assuring ourselves that we are in good shape going into the surgery, if there is no way out, and thus ensuring our recovery…and perhaps we will not have to repeat the same scenario time and time again!
Ultimately, failed back surgery is about behavior, or lack of behavior, and the failure on our part to deal with the 5 factors leading to the majority of neck pain, back pain, and sciatica. It is also about the failure of the medical community, reactive instead of proactive and preventative in nature. The combination of a lack of education, and a reactive mindset and method of treatment for neck pain, back pain, and sciatica, ensures a continuous
highway into the operating room…and a revolving door at its entrance.
I will deal with this in greater depth in a series of articles at:
The first picture in the video is really pretty close to what I looked like before I started stretching, then walking, and finally exercising! Or at least this is how I felt! John-the-Hutt! That was it, complete with rolls, double chin, the works! The amount of neck pain, back pain, and sciatica caused by this much weight must have been incredible! But the pain relief all started with stretching and walking!
While millions of people visit their medical practitioner daily for one complaint or another related to “back pain,” most complaints are based on lower back pain and sciatica.
UNFORTUNATELY!
Most medical practitioners still prescribe bed rest and, if they provide any sort of stretching or exercise advise at all, it is in the form of a cheap copy run off by an assistant and handed to you on the way out the door!
This was my life just over a year ago! I showed this once before, along with a much less glamorous shot with TuffGuy below!
I really wrestled with showing you the above shot again but I think it is important for you to get a real sense of just how bad a shape I was in because I listened to bad advise from my doctors!*
Bed rest actually exacerbates the pain!
One day, and I really don’t know what happened, I said enough is enough! The pain of my life became worse than the pain in my neck and back!
I got off the pain medication, a horrible ordeal in…but I did it!
I started walking, at first to the end of the driveway and back up to the house…and always with my wife, Connie, and my buddy, TuffGuy!
I started a stretching program and that led to an exercise program!
I stretched, walked, and exercised a bit more each and every day, CANI! Constant and never ending improvement! (Tony Robbins)

NOTE: I am NOT a medical practitioner and my advise is anecdotal. These pain relief strategies have worked for me, however, as you apply these neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief strategies, make sure you take it slow and always refer back to your primary care physician if you notice anything out of the ordinary!
*You may have wonderful doctors and I am NOT a medical practitioner. Many physicians are up to speed when it comes to the latest neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief strategies, unfortunately mine were not! If you feel you are not progressing, get a second opinion at once, it is your life…protect yourself from bad medical advise. Just as in every area of life, there are good and bad specialists, make sure you have a good one…you only have one back and you only have one life!
Chronic Back Pain and Understanding Failed Back Surgery Syndrome
The Risk of Failed Back Surgery is very real! When facing chronic and/or acute neck pain, back pain, and/or sciatica we will do just about anything to achieve pain relief. The fact is, we will do anything for just a little relief, and many agree to back surgery, even more than once, in an attempt to get just a little relief. I know, I’ve been there!
Failed Back Surgery Syndrome is a reality everyone considering back surgery of any kind should consider. The numbers for people experiencing complete neck, back or sciatic nerve pain relief from back surgery aren’t encouraging!
Failed Back Surgery Syndrome can actually be broken down into three parts and, in order to do it justice, that’s what I am going to do with it. Failed back surgery syndrome is a reality for people who have had back surgery that has failed, but it is also a reality for people considering back surgery and for people about to undergo back surgery. Unless considered individually, the full impact of this condition will be lost on those most at risk…those suffering from chronic neck pain, back pain, and/or sciatica having had surgery taht failed and for people about to go “under the knife.”
The 30 Day Neck Pain, Back Pain, and Sciatica Relief Challenge: Walking and Pain Relief Part II
As you begin to plan your neck pain, back pain, and sciatica treatment relief program, whether as part of the 30 day challenge or simply as a way to overcome acute and/or chronic pain, stretching and exercise will come into the picture almost at once.
Stretching and low-impact exercises are generally the pain relief strategies most medical practitioners start you out on. This is mainly because these medically supervised pain relief strategies are conducted in a controlled environment, one they have you visit in order to undergo some sort of physical and/or exercise therapy, sometimes one in the same.
However, if you are beyond the physical therapy stage, either because your insurance has run out or because you have given up on traditional medicine (actually quite common with chronic pain sufferers), you can still walk out your front door and have access to one of the best exercise strategies for your neck pain, back pain, and/or sciatica; and that’s walking!
Walking is a great overall exercise, offering aerobic benefit, core muscle development, and overall muscle tone and strengthening!
The combination of benefits offered by walking, including real and lasting neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief, if instituted and integrated properly, will have a spill-over effect into virtually every area of your life.
The video below addresses some of the finer points you need to know as you begin a walking program designed for neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief.
As noted in the previous video, your shoes and socks are crucial, along with basic foot care. There is an article and a video on footwear and care of the feet, focusing on some of the issues you may face when beginning your neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief program, as well. In addition to footwear, the surface you walk on is crucial and if you must walk on concrete, as many in urban and suburban areas must, then footwear becomes all the more important.
I hope this video helps, I put it in as an add-on because this is such an important topic.
If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to contact me, I am always available for people suffering from neck pain, back pain, and sciatica because I know where you have been. If you have any other questions or concerns, you may find the answers in articles at:
I can work out again! Something I had all but written off and missed terribly!
