Back RX: A 15-Minute-a-Day Yoga- and Pilates-Based ... (ISBN 1592400450)

This book is excellent:
I am 35 years old and was a very active runner, cyclist, lift weights and practiced yoga. I became immobilized overnight by back pain and an orthopedic surgeon shook his head and told me he didn't know why I was in so much pain. This book emphasizes yoga that can be done lying on the floor, so it can be used very early on. It is very similar to what I was prescribed by my physical therapist--I even took the book to my first appointment and she bookmarked the pages she wanted me to emphasize. Between this book and Back Care Yoga by Schatz I have returned to my normal activities. I even recommend having them spiral bound so you can lay them on the floor next to you. The only thing not in these two books was advice by my physical therapist--twice a day everyday--forever.

really good and effective:
author gives the basics of backpain and causes which we overlook in general. first you should beleive in the process(dont make the pain to take control over you as it is more mind+body related) and follow it sincerely. Only difference what i found is that it takes around 30-min and not 15-min for any of the series a/b/c.Back RX: A 15-Minute-a-Day Yoga- and Pilates-Based Program to End Low Back Pain

aleung:
This is a useful and practical book worth reading by people who suffer from low back pain or prevention of the problem. The advice there tallies with management and exercise prescription from professional practising physiotherapists. The exercises can be performed by people who suffers from low back pain.

a slim book; a big help:
You need to do some for of aerobics every other day and you will need to treat the pain and ice everyday as well but, done right, the exercise series in this book really does make a difference.

No more back pain:
I love this book. I use it all the time. When I do these exercises all the time my low back pain is nonexistent. When I stop, the pain slowly creeps on back. I bought this book for my sister and she said it helped her too.
