This book really educated me about how to prevent back pain while sitting. I had been wrong on several counts. Wrong posture, wrong type of chair, wrong placement in relation to my computer. It’s amazing what a differance these changes make for someone like myself who must sit 6-8 hrs per day in front of a computer.

Very little information regarding safe natural ways of diminishing pain. This book is mostly fluff with a very appealing title…Dont bother with it.
