Empowering chronic pain sufferers and their practitioners, The Journey to Pain Relief describes an innovative pain management approach that taps into the body's inherent ability to heal. Involved with pain management techniques since 1994, physiotherapist and acupuncturist, Phyllis Berger, discovered that pain relief is dependent on stress factors, and that relief could be more rapidly achieved by relieving anxiety, using electrical currents and acupuncture, and increasing pain-free movements with exercises - especially those that are enjoyable and are able to build strength and endurance.

The Journey to Pain Relief focuses on the brain and its complex chemical interactions and electrical circuitry. The book combines various treatments that help increase exercise ability and encourage positive attitudes that ultimately bring patients to a state of pain relief and control. It contains the latest research on newly developed electrical currents that affect the brain, and naturally release substances that relieve pain and reduce inflammation in the body.

Pain management depends on a patients' state of mind, their desire to get well, and their beliefs and expectations. Many of the cutting edge, and little known methods, in this book can assist greater numbers of patients in achieving pain control.
