The Pain Cure Rx: The Yass Method for Diagnosing and Resolving Chronic Pain Audible – Abridged dged
Author: Mitchell Yass ID: B00Y17RW22
Chronic pain has become an international epidemic – an estimated one billion people across the globe suffer every day. And, what Dr. Mitchell Yass has found over his 20-year career is that many of these people suffer needlessly. While the current medical model for treating pain isn’t helping, there is hope – and that’s what this program is about. In The Pain Cure Rx, Dr. Mitchell Yass presents the Yass Method, an alternative model of treatment that can resolve pain quickly and effectively without surgery or medication. While working with more than 14,000 patients, Dr. Yass realized that many cases of chronic pain are the result of misdiagnosis and thus improper treatment. In the medical community today, most chronic pain is attributed to a structural problem, such as a herniated disc, stenosis, a meniscal tear, or arthritis. But Dr. Yass has found that in about 90 percent of these cases, the cause is actually a muscular weakness or imbalance – a condition that’s easy to treat on your own with very little equipment. The Yass Method focuses on getting the proper diagnosis – finding the true source of the pain – and then using simple exercises to find lifelong relief. In this recording, Dr. Yass looks at the most common areas where people experience pain – the neck, low back, mid-back, gluteal region, knee, shoulder, and hip – and lays out simple tests that examine things like range of motion, flexibility, walking patterns, and posture that listeners can do in the comfort of their own homes. He teaches them how to use this information, along with an analysis of their symptoms, to identify if their pain is in fact muscular rather than structural. If it is structural, they can choose surgery, knowing that the outcome will likely be good. But if the pain is muscular, they can use the easy, step-by-step exercises and routines referenced in this program – and shown in videos on his website – to get the pain resolution they’re searching for.
Done.

So I have to review this book as both a layperson and a physician who treats pain. First off the book is beautiful, crisp detailed photos and illustrations and a hard cover which was a pleasant surprise. It presents fresh eyes for patients to understand the cause of their pain and take proactive steps to help themselves. I would say that most doctors could benefit from the amount of detail presented, even I found myself making clinical notes… Ah right I forgot about that… Yup I should check Judy’s hip flexor so tomorrow. So it is great as a educational book and also, as a piece of merchandise it was crafted with quality from the publisher. It Should be required reading in all pain clinics. AND THEN IT HAPPENED… Dr. Yass makes the statement that would discredit the book and display his ignorance to such a important topic, he states that if you have pain in the gluteal region and have been told it is being caused by a problem in the lumbar spine (herniated disc) the diagnosis cannot be correct because the nerves to that area come off the sacral region. Say it is not so Yass? Need I remind you compressions in the origin region of the sacral plexus (mainly L5 and S1) could be caused by a tumor or herniated disk. I mean the Superior Gluteal Nerve has it’s orgins from L5. I believe you have misinformed yourself into thinking that the Lumbar Plexus contains L1-L5 but in fact L4 and L5 are considered part of the Sacral Plexus and CERTAINLY these regions DO produce Gluteal Pain, in fact a Herniated disc at L5 is the #1 cause of that pain (85% of the time as per Clinical Symposia Vol 48, Number 4 1996, Evaluation and Treatment of Low Back Pain, Vert Mooney, MD Jeffrey Saal MD, Joel Saal MD.
My first question is: WHERE HAS THIS BOOK BEEN MOST OF MY LIFE??
If only I could’ve read something even close to this years ago, I doubt I’d be where I am now!! I’ve gone to pain specialists & all they want to do is push drugs—HEAVY drugs, addictive drugs!! Or some will offer injections of steroids which also have the potential to ruin the body!! I’ve refused the drugs as I figured they’re just masking what my body is trying to tell me. I’ve gone for physical therapy, and although somewhat more in the right path, I must not have had either the correct exercises or either not enough of them
Dr Yass has treated over 14,000 patients who have either gone through surgery but still have pain, or came to him as a last resort BEFORE having surgery. In all his cases he was able to cure them without medication or surgery. It’s usually a muscular problem. If structural, he then suggests you most likely need surgery
He begins by explaining the difference between structural & muscular & what pain is. Most people think it’s the nerves causing the feeling when in fact it’s the connective tissue which surrounds most everything in our bodies
The majority of the book then divides into the different areas most people experience pain and what diagnoses & exercises to do that might help. It’s a great book to have for when a certain area of your body is treating you with hurt, open up to the chapter that pertains to that area
This book is REMARKABLE!! It’s full of information & knowledge in which most of us need to be re-programmed about our pain!! I can’t state enough how happy I am to have gotten a copy of this book as it will ALWAYS be readily available on my kindle to use when pain flares up!!
In The Pain Cure Yass shares his exploration into truly understanding the reason why pain occurs, following back to the original cause. Yass has been prepared to turn widely accepted beliefs on their head, in search for the truth behind pain. Rather than seek to mask the symptoms, he looks for original causes. I, like Yass, had also studied pain, and from those studies, was led to believe that this occurs always by the nerves sending signals to the brain. The most that I derived from this belief, was that pain killers are futile, requiring one to constantly increase the dose, as the body becomes accustomed to each mg you consume. In my teens and twenties, I took pain medication for every malady of my body, from headaches, to stomach aches, through to the common cold. Starting at Paracetomol, and ending with Ibuprofen and sometimes more. I also witnessed my late father taking heavy medication on a daily basis just to get through each day. He was interested and did try acupuncture and other therapies, but it seemed that medication was pushed by doctors and made more accessible, sadly. Thus, I encourage you to read about Yass’s theories and test them using his methods described in The Pain Cure. Through various pathways in my life, I began to consider that problems do become stored in your muscle tissue. I feel like Yass has given me full permission to hold this belief, validate it and continue to explore such.
The Pain Cure has numerous methods for testing each part of the body, detailing conditions that may affect the muscles and structure. Photographs and diagrams assist considerably.
