each page appeared to be to busy, which made me exhausted, not motivated for whatever of interest on that page. there were not going to be any hidden secrets, so the art work and written contents could have been played with more to see how to catch a readers eye , who had been there and done that. i think with some help on these things the book will be of value to someone with back conditions.
 Must read before treatments or surgery September 12, 2004

I've purchased this book and her New Back in Action book as well. Both are very good; these books should be issued by doctors to every sufferer of back pain. Few if any doctors or chiropractors provide a thorough explanation of what causes back pain. Sarah Key's books are among the most thorough and informative sources on the subject. I only wish I had purchased them years ago. Before you have endless treatments let alone surgery, I recommend reading this book to 1) fully understand the mechanics of the back, 2) educate yourself on the causes of back pain and 3) learn some helpful exercises that may help you reduce or eliminate your back pain on your own.
Out of the Wilderness September 8, 2004
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
After years in the wilderness I found Sarah Key and the Back Sufferers' Bible. I have been to hell and back with my back pain ....spent the last 2 years with a string of neurosurgeons, PTs, and Chiropractors and none has taught me more or helped me more than this book. Sarah explains how the back works (with great diagrams) and how it goes wrong and concrete steps to help yourself. I had a spinal fusion 10 months ago and have had a tough recovery. None of the exercises my PTs gave me provided the relief that Sarah's did. Following her protocol I had significant relief in a matter of days. It left me wondering where the hell has the rest of the "back world" been....she's got the answers. Noone else I have encountered gave me as much information or specific help....and she did it all the way from Austrailia! I am a true believer in her program and give this book and her methods my highest recommendation.

I have had a problem with my sacro-iliac joint, where the pain permeates into the lower back. I tried the exercises from the book which included using the backblock, for months. It did absolutely nothing for me.Good marketing though.
A breath of fresh air February 11, 2003
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I just wanted to say thankyou for the back sufferer's bible. I have sufferred from minor back problems for years. Last year it got a lot worse and I spent many painful days getting many different opinions from doctors & trying to understand my problems. Unfortunately I didn't "discover" the back
sufferrers bible for many months. When I finally did (4 weeks ago) it was like a breath of fresh air as it really agreed with many of the feelings I had about my own problems and clarified a whole lot more. I sufferred from what was diagnosed as an L4-L5 prolapse and spondylolysis of L5, but feel that this is not quite correct or not the whole story. I was recommended for
surgery due to sciatica and loss of feeling in my left leg, but managed to avoid it by getting a second and third opinion. I am steadily getting better via self help, but have some way to go yet.
