Doctors Gave Up Fixing This Fishing Fanatic’s Back Pain, but Today He Can Fish for Hours
editBy Ian Hart, CSCS
After helping hundreds of people who suffer from back pain and battling it myself for 10 long years…
I can tell you there’s probably no more aggravating form of pain.
Sometimes you can’t sit. Sometimes you can’t stand.
Sometimes you can’t walk or drive. Or even lie in bed.
The pain is simply wretched.
A couple days ago, a man came into our clinic practically on his hands and knees.
It was the only way he could find relief.
He actually inspired today’s article. Today, I’m going to tell you what I told him…
Every week in fact, my clinics and programs are a destination for people from all walks of life who suffer from mild to severe back pain.
The first thing you should appreciate is:
Back pain IS something that can be fixed without drugs, injections or surgery.
That’s right.
Allow me to be clear about this, because it’s important:
Doctors are under intense pressure to see as many patients as they can.
When a doctor tells you the only way to find relief is through drugs, injections or surgery, you’re not quite being told the whole truth.
It’s unfortunate, but the state of our healthcare system forces doctors to live by the old saying…
“If all you’ve got is a hammer, everything becomes a nail.”
And no matter how well meaning, they’re legally bound to advocate certain preauthorized tests and treatments. And no more.
That’s the reality.
(I have doctors in pain who visit my clinics, so I know.)
Then, when doctors put a label on your pain and give you their recommendation…
I totally get how good that makes you feel in the moment. You’re like “I’m so glad they know what it is, so they can fix it.”
What happens next?
They prescribe some heavy duty ibuprofen to calm the inflammation, maybe ship you off to a physical therapist, and then…
They’re on to the next patient.
And we already know how well that helps, don’t we?
Let’s face it:
The Reality is a Lot of Doctors Fail to Fix Their Patients’ Back Pain
Patients return repeatedly with the same pain, the same issue, the same cry for help.
The doctor eventually begins to wonder whether the patient even wants to get better.
(Especially when the patient rejects, for good reason, risky surgery.)
Imagine that! It doesn’t quite occur to them it could be THE TREATMENT that’s not working.
And that’s because their “back pain” diagnosis just becomes an easy way of sending the patient home happy in the moment.
For the record, any number of things can be the true cause of your back pain…
- A disc irritating, compressing or pinching a nerve…
- A bone spur…
- A facet joint at the back of a vertebra which is out of alignment…
- A strained back muscle spasming and painfully squeezing a nearby nerve or nerve sheathe…
Multiply these issues by the number of vertebrae and muscles in the back and…
You can appreciate how challenging it can be to accurately diagnose the root problem.
Even with technology like MRIs.
Which is why most doctors feel they’re doing the best they can with the resources available.
That’s why I prefer to take a more self-directed, holistic approach to fixing back pain.
So… How Do We Fix the Pain, Tingling and Numbness in Your Back?
Recently, Jay came to my clinic and…
He told me how much he loved to fish. It was a true passion of his.
But Jay couldn’t anymore. He was in too much pain.
Here’s Jay’s inspiring story in his own words…
I think it may inspire hope if you’re also suffering…
I like to fish. A lot.
Now, my back pain is virtually gone.
Allowing me to fish and cast and row as well as do my everyday activities like tennis, walking and just about everything else did before I had back problems.
I went out to fishing on Broad River recently…
I found that I was even able to stand for three to four hours straight, fishing off the back of the boat without having any severe back pain at all.
Today, I am able to do the activities that I had to give up.
Before, I couldn’t stand without back pain for more than about 20 minutes.
I could hardly cast at all. And I couldn’t row the boat.
Now I can stand for hours without it bothering me.
My sleep has dramatically improved. My level of fitness has improved.
My energy has improved. I just generally feel better than I have in years and years. Absolutely.
I would recommend Ian’s program to anyone of any age, of any fitness level.
How did we help Jay? Or maybe more aptly, how did Jay help herself?
He did 8 specific movements…
These 8 movements are totally unlike “the sheets” of exercises you get from chiropractors or doctors.
Instead, we “wake up” certain muscles and restore muscle balance.
That’s key.
Then in certain areas of his back, we jump-started pathways so vital oxygen and nutrition could get in and help him heal.
That’s the holistic way to relieve and remove back pain.
In Jay’s case, it took just a few weeks. And that’s not uncommon.
Just a few short weeks and he was feeling tremendous relief.
Able to fish and cast and row a boat again without pain.
Yes, there ARE ways to get out of pain.
They don’t require medication, surgery or injections. They don’t require months of physiotherapy.
You just have to restore your body’s natural functional movement and muscle balance and allow it to heal naturally.
