Finally Felt Some Relief

Living with chronic pain has worn me down for years, so I picked this up hoping for something practical. It explained options in a clear, calm way without overwhelming me. I’ve already tried a few approaches and noticed small improvements. More than anything, it gave me hope and a better understanding of how to manage daily pain.

A Practical, Compassionate Pain Guide

I really appreciate how this book laid out doable, daily strategies for chronic pain, especially for conditions like fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, and lupus. The mix of neuropasticity techniques, mindfulness, dietary advice, breathing and relaxation exercises all felt realistic rather than overwhelming. The narration made the content even more accessible and calming. Overall, it reads like a thoughtful A-to-Z manual that empowers you to take control of pain management rather than just endure it.

Always seeking help with MS pain

As someone living with MS and daily pain, this audiobook hit home for me. I appreciated how the nurse-author explained things in a calm, steady way that made sense without overwhelming me. I found myself pausing the audio to try a few of the techniques, and some of them genuinely gave me a bit of relief in the moment. It feels good to hear options that go beyond medication. If you’ve been dealing with pain for a long time, this is worth listening to.

An Excellent Holistic Approach to Pain Management

I am in my 50s and am always looking for alternatives to traditional medications or treatments, especially when it comes to chronic pain. The author did a wonderful job of weaving in her many years of clinical experience and bridging this with holistic approaches such as alternative therapies, the positive effects of simple dietary changes as well as mindful techniques to further achieve these results. It is a great read for anyone looking for more options.

Helpful guide

I currently work in the healthcare field and often encounter patients with complaints of pain. I myself have struggled with low back pain, so I wanted to see what this book had to offer. Seeing that a Nurse writes it, I tried to both validate the remedies and learn some new ones. Reading it felt like having a calm, knowledgeable nurse walk me through what’s happening in my body and what I can realistically do about it. The author clearly described the pain process, what to expect, and how to treat the different types of pain. The sections on working with providers were instrumental, as they highlighted which questions to ask during appointments. If you are experiencing any pain and need clear advice, this book is helpful. Of course, there is the disclaimer to consult with your doctor before embarking on any of the remedies.
