5 Simple Ways To ELIMINATE Neck, Shoulder and Upper Back Pain

Friday, May 9th, 2008

If you’ve ever suffered from intense pain in the neck, shoulder or upper back
you know that it can make getting through the day extremely difficult because
there are so many things we do that require our arms and head.

I know exactly what it’s like as I’ve had my fair share of injuries, including
shoulder problems brought on by weight lifting as well as a month long stiff
neck caused by a nasty mountain bike accident.

So I know a thing or two about how to deal with and eliminate these aches
and pains. Plus, over the past 5 years, here at the Healthy Back Institute
we’ve helped thousands of people overcome neck, shoulder and upper
back pain.

Here’s what we’ve found to work the best:

1. If brought on by an accident, as quickly as possible take Arnica.

Arnica is a homeopathic remedy that works very well when taken right after
injury and they even make small viles of pellets you can keep on you. I now
keep some in my car and also in my mountain biking pack.

2. Reduce the inflammation as quickly as possible.

There are many things you can do to reduce the inflammation. You can use
ice for the first 24-48 hours. Elevate the limb or injured part of the body.

You can also use a natural anti-inflammatory like Lifezyme Plus.
Provided there’s no open wound you can also use a topical pain relieving cream
like Rub on Relief.

3. Eliminate muscle spasms and relieve tight, stiff muscles

Muscles in spasms can wreak havoc on your body and what many people
don’t realize is your muscles can be a in a state of “semi” spasms.. meaning
the spasm isn’t intense enough for you to notice but while mild it can still pull
your body out alignment and cause other problems.

One way to address this is trigger point therapy which can be administered
by a trained therapist and much of it you can even do yourself.

4. Ensure your mindset is programmed for recovery

Believe it or not, your mind… how you think, what you feel, etc all plays a
MAJOR role in your ability to heal and recover. And if you don’t believe it,
I challenge you to do some research and see what you discover. Start by
reading this special report on the subject.

But in the meantime, just remember that you must tell yourself that you
WILL overcome this and you must believe it.

5. Identify and address your muscle imbalances

Whether your pain was caused by an accident or not, you have imbalances…
we all do and the worse they are the more likely they are to create conditions
and cause pain.

If you haven’t already identified your imbalances using our best-selling
Lose The Back Pain system you really need to. You can’ expect to get lasting
relief if you don’t uncover and address the underlying cause.

And before you try to say “my condition was caused by ______” let me remind
you that regardless of what you may have been diagnosed with and what you
have been told, or what you believe caused it, I can promise you that muscle
imbalances ARE a factor…

In fact, I’m willing to bet that they are a BIGGER factor than you may think and
that once you start to address them you WILL start to see improvements…

And often times people see improvements in so many other areas in addition
to the “condition or pain” that got them started in the first place.

Well, I wish you the best and hope that you will take action and continue to
learn and experiment.

If you ever have questions please post them in our discussion forum.

Talk to you again soon…

What To Do When NOTHING Gets Rid Of The Pain

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

It’s a question I get dozens, if not hundreds of times each and every day:

I’ve tried everything but am still in extreme pain, what can I do?

Well, I’ve got good and bad news for you…

First, let’s start with the GOOD news.

The good news is I’ve not met or talked to a person yet who has tried every treatment known to man… so while you may have tried lots of different things, I’m willing to bet there are treatments (and treatment combinations) that you have NOT yet tried.

But even more important is the fact that the more things you’ve tried the closer you likely are to finding the one thing (or more likely, combination of things) that will work for you and finally give you your life back.

People view failure as a bad thing when instead you need to look at it as an experiment… and know that the faster you try things the sooner you achieve success.

But now for the BAD news…

The bad news (or more appropriately, sad news) is, most people don’t view themselves as powerful and successful beings and they give up. So let me ask you this extremely important question…

Are you going to win the war against your pain or is it going to beat the life out of you?

Seems like a silly question I know… but far too many people lose this battle and end up living the rest of their life miserable and in pain…

And what really drives me nuts is it does NOT have to be like this!  There are so many things you can do that WILL improve things for you yet every day I get emails from people who have already given up. I can usually tell after reading just the first sentence or two.

Well, I want to share a story with you that I know you will find truly inspiring… read this:

Dear Jesse:

There appears to be some confusion at your end. I bought the program and admit that it was the best $110.00 bucks I had spent in my life.  My pain was so incredible that I found myself lying on the floor curled up in a ball wishing I could die and get it over with.

Years of physio. (all wrong) chiro, massage, cranio, and the list goes on with thousands of dollors flying out of my pocket, with  no end in sight I really had given up on life.   Yes, yes, I even had surgery.  But God just didn’t want me yet as I was directed to your website.

I bought your program, tried it and in just one day, (yes, one day)  my pain stopped.   I told my physiotherapists, they should learn something and buy your program.

I told my Doctor about it and suggested that she send her patients to your websight.  She agreed to check it out for herself.  I tell everyone about you two and what a common sense program you have that works.

I have to thank for your business smarts and for taking the time and energy to put your fabulous program together.  It’s because of you that I have a chance at life again.  Many many thanks.

Best regards

Thanks so much Vira for sharing your story. And it’s YOU who won this battle, not me… all I did was supply you with information that you needed but didn’t have and I’m happy just to be a small part of your success.

While not everyone gets such incredible and immediate results, I’m glad you did. And I want to point out that the main reason you are feeling better now is because you never gave up…

You kept searching and trying things until you found the solution and that’s THE key to success in all aspects of life whether it’s overcoming chronic pain, losing weight or having a successful relationship.

Another thing I want to say is, while I’m glad you told your therapists don’t be surprised if they poo-poo the system and try to dismiss your success as a “coincidence”… it happens all the time and it’s because most people, especially doctors and the like, tend to think they know it all… and accepting the results that you and tens of thousands of others have using our system would mean they’d have to admit that they don’t know it all.

It doesn’t matter how dramatic the results were… it doesn’t matter that you had surgery and tried physical therapy, massage, chiropractic and all the other treatments but none of it worked. Some people just can’t seem to admit that they don’t know it all.

I learned a long time ago that I don’t know it all… far, far from it. In fact, every day I am amazed by how much I’m learning all the time. I hope that you to keep an open mind and are always attentive and learning.

I urge you to devour all of the information on our website… there’s literally hundreds of pages of information on conditions, treatments, products and more.

Also, over the years one of the things we’ve discovered here at the Healthy Back Institute is that the mind plays a very BIG role in back pain and all sorts of diseases and conditions. I’ll be sending you some articles and information on this in the future as it is THE missing link for a lot of people.

Well, that’s all for today. Talk to you again soon…

Jesse

P.S. Have you listened to the “Back Pain Treatments Reviewed” teleseminar recording yet? If not, you can listen to it now here . On it we review many treatments in detail and talk about the pros, cons and why certain treatments will work for one person but not the next… even when they may have the same condition.

Back Surgery: How to get relief from post surgical scar tissue…

Friday, May 2nd, 2008

If you have had a back surgery either on your neck or lower back and have failed to get relief there could be an underlying issue that most treatments fail to even mention.

Any and every surgery will develop some amount of scar tissue all be it that new techniques are getting better at minimizing the amount, its still an issue that you are most likely dealing with right now and most likely nothing you have tried has helped…

Here it is short and sweet, Scar tissue and Fibrous Adhesions are a dirty little secret and a contributing factor of post surgical pain. And if left untreated could take years to diminish.

Scar tissue needs to be what is called released or Myofascially manipulated and there are many different techniques that work great for this and most good and well trained massage therapist can do and excellent job of it but there is one more component to getting relief and that is the absorption of the excessive scar tissue from a cellular level.

As we get older, the more stress we are under and the less fruits and vegetables we eat the less enzymes our bodies will get and produce on a daily basis allowing for the over development of excess scar tissue.

And that is why it is critical that anyone who has had any type of surgery should eat 5 to 7 servings or fruits and vegetables a day and supplement with enzymes.

Try a Free Bottle of Lifezyme Plus

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

while back I emailed you about Lifezyme Plus, an all-nat-ural formula we developed that contains 11 powerful enzymes, herbs and vitamins. And this combination has allowed thousands of people to finally get relief… even when prescription drugs weren’t working.

It looks like you haven’t tried it yet so I wanted to send you a free bottle so you can see for yourself just how well it works.

If you’re skeptical, you should be. There’s tons of people promising you relief and yet it seems almost everything you try gives only temporary relief if you’re lucky.

That’s why I’d like to send you a bottle to try so you can be the judge. If it works for you like it has for thousands of others, great… and if not, at least you tried it.

Don’t be like the people who write in to tell us how great it worked for them but they wish they wouldn’t have waited so long to try it.

And if you still have doubts about whether you should try it or not, read these emails we’ve received from customers:

I was trying to locate a spot on your web to tell you how wonderful your product is and how it has changed my life.Here’s my story:

In 1991 I was diagnosised with a Chordoma tumor in L3. I had several experimental surgeries to excise the tumor. I was left with a bone strut that collasped into my spinal canal and left me with spinal stenosis and a weak right leg and drop foot.

Because of all this trauma to my back, spine, and left leg, I now have bulging disk L4 and L5. As a result of this, I developed scaitica. I was in pain for 1 and 1/2 years.

I tried everything; chiropractor, epidural injections, physical therapy, pain medicines, massages, ect. I was desperate and thats when I found your website. I decided to try your product Lifezyme Plus and after 3 weeks that pain was gone. I continue to take LP and my life is so much sweeter.

Since the scaitic pain has left my life I am a different person. Thank you for your product. I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would ever feel good again but I do!

Hi Jesse
I started taking the Lifezyme a week ago and have seen a slow but steady improvement in pain and movement. The mornings are the worst for me, even though I have a tempurpedic bed. But the recovery in the mornings is coming quicker each day, to where I can bend over wth little discomfort fairly early in the day, whereas before, the stiffness and pain would last throughout the day with little improvement. I have prayed to God for help, and I believe He directed me to you guys. God bless you, and I will check in periodically.

By the way, I forgot to mention… Lifezyme Plus helps with dozens of other conditions like:

- Fibromyalgia
- Arthritis
- Carpal Tunnel
- High blood pressure
- Knee pain
- Bursitis
- Tendonitis
- And a bunch more

Here’s another story we received from a customer:

No More PMS Pain

“I was stuck in a 3 day meeting out of town and started my period unexpectedly.  There I was miles from home with no easy way to get my usual pain relief medicine.  I quietly asked around and a friend gave me some of her Lifezyme Plus.  “Something is better than nothing I thought” But boy was I wrong… This something was FANTASTIC.

Usually it hurts so much I find myself totally distracted or I’m at least very uncomfortable the whole 5 days even with traditional over the counter pain relief supposedly designed for that unpleasant week every month.  But with this I felt great… no pain and I can’t believe how fast it worked!  I now have two bottles on stand by…one for the office and one for the house.”

And you can tons of other stories from people of all ages who had suffered from all sorts of aches, pains and conditions but now feel better than ever because of Lifezyme Plus.

Inversion Questions Answered and New Support Group

Thursday, April 10th, 2008

A few days ago I sent an email out about inversion therapy and we have been
getting tons of questions so I thought I’d answer some of the most common ones…

QUESTION #1 - Does inversion therapy help if you have neck pain?

Great question… yes, it can help if you are dealing with neck pain. With inversion,
everything from the ankle all the way up through the neck and head gets stretched
and pressure relieved.

Now, it’s important to point out that while you do get the benefits for the neck when
using an inversion table, there are other decompression devices out there that work
well but do not address the neck.

QUESTION #2 - I’ve had a hip replacement, can I do inversion?

That all depends… if you have had a “total hip replacement” it’s NOT recommended.
Same is true for a total knee replacement. In these situations you would want to use
an alternative like the “Back Bubble” (see next question below).

If you have had a partial hip replacement you should check with your doctor but we
have had many doctors say it’s ok.

QUESTION #3 - Are there other devices other than an inversion table that do
the same thing?

Another great question… yes, there are many devices out there but only a handful
that really work well. One of the best alternatives we’ve found to an inversion table
is a product called “The Back Bubble” and you can learn more about it here.

You can also look into traction which would be performed by a qualified doctor
or therapist. And another method that is being pushed by a lot of chiropractors
is the DRX9000. You can read more about it and other forms of decompression here.

And last, here are some more emails we’ve received from people who have
used inversion therapy:
