I don't want to discount the help that some people get from yoga, pilates, and similar regimens, but FAR too many people, including a frightening number of physicians, simply ASSuME that non-opioid, non-surgical, and non-medication treatments are safe.

I've created a new link that is not dependent on his site, so you can still share the Intractable Pain Patients' Handbook for Survival with the following link:
