Herniated Disc Cure
Millions of patients are searching for a herniated disc cure. Unfortunately, few ever find it and even more unfortunately, few even need it…Herniated discs are common in the general population. They can cause symptoms, but rarely are they the cause of the ongoing treatment resistant back pain often associated with this relatively normal spine condition. Traditional Herniated Disc CureUnfortunately, surgery can be risky and may leave the postoperative patient in worse condition. Staying clear of the risks of back operations is deemed prudent by many patients, so these often choose a nonsurgical method, such as spinal decompression. Of course both of these treatments can also act as a placebo cure, but the pain is likely to come back in a new location or as some other variety of back pain substitute symptom. Psychosomatic Herniated Disc CureThe reason that some patients are not satisfied with the results of their medical treatments for a herniated disc condition is that the disc injury is coincidental to the pain. That’s right, the disc is herniated, but that is not the actual cause of the discomfort. This describes my exact spinal condition in the earlier years of my back ache journey.I have herniations at spinal levels L4/L5 and L5/S1 that were blamed for my chronic back pain for 18 years. Despite all my attempts to cure the pain, it remained and steadily worsened. After many years, I realized that these symptoms were not generated from the discs at all. Instead, they were an expression of the mindbody process, with the lumbar herniations being completely coincidental. Once I determined the true nature of my pain, I managed to treat it myself using knowledge therapy techniques. Let me tell you something… Reading and learning sure beat surgery any day, especially when they can effectively relieve some types of pain instead of causing scars and possible disability! It would have been a happy ending if my pain stayed away. However, age and ongoing injury brought it all back to me where it has taken up seemingly permanent residence. Now, I have symptoms throughout much of my anatomy and have been diagnosed with a total of 12 herniations. However, it must be noted that many of these disc pathologies are likely to be completely innocent and simply exist without causing me pain. However, a few are troublesome and may be the source of some or all of my present suffering. Recommendation on a Herniated Disc CureRecently, I was discussing disc pain with a friend. She swore that she had read “the majority of my website” and understood all my concepts. Well, I listened to her story and notated her struggles as she detailed what seemed to me to be a classic case of stress-induced symptoms. She noted that her single herniation at L5/S1 was tiny and not affecting any nerve tissue. She asked if her unresolved pain could possibly be psychosomatic. She was furious at the answer (as ambiguous and noncommittal as it was!) and was sure that somehow had I insulted her by doubting the physical nature of her pain. I get this reaction occasionally, but less now than before, since people are finally waking up to the mind’s ability to cause chaos in our physical bodies. Anyway, I do have a point to this story…People love to learn about new things, but they have trouble applying the knowledge to themselves. There is still a sizeable stigma associated with psychological back pain. I find it almost humorous, since it is now a known scientific statistic that many cases of chronic pain have a definitive emotional component. This patient did not want to find a cure. She wanted to find a new back pain treatment. She was content to allow the pain to ravage her time and time again. Some people just can’t be reached or helped. For the rest of you, here is your chance to open your mind to what might just amount to a real cure. Learn it. Use it. There is nothing to lose. If you have longterm pain that has not responded well to medical treatments, I can assure you that there is still hope. Learn more about knowledge therapy and even consider contacting some of the mindbody medical practitioners who have written so much in their literary lessons.
