Happy Back - Paperback

Happy Back is a self-help, how to book about caring for your neck and back on your own. Neck and back pain books typically focus only on exercises and stretches. Happy Back not only demonstrates effective spinal stretches, but also focuses on the ergonomics of daily living to avoid the accumulation of spinal stresses which may lead to pain. Over 140 pictures show readers do's and don'ts of standing, sitting, driving, working out, computer postures, bending and lifting, and even golf. Happy Back teaches you the simple stretches and exercises which are taught to each patient in Dr. Fuller's chiropractic office. These effective stretches only take a couple minutes a day. The book also offers advice on how to sit, stand, use weights and cardio machines, lift, shovel, rake, and vacuum safely. The advice comes from Dr. Fuller's years of experience, observing thousands of people with neck and back pain, and showing them how to reduce costly, painful episodes of neck and back pain before they occur. Neck, back, arm and leg pain, whether acute or chronic problems, may often be avoided by paying attention to how you use your body during your day to day activities, and by doing consistent daily stretches for your spine. The advice in Happy Back will try to help you save you time, pain, and money. Coupling improved posture and ergonomics with simple stretches and posture awareness may save you years of needless suffering. Let Happy Back and Dr. Fuller be your guide.
