Book Review: “Chicken Soup for the Soul: Say Goodbye to Back Pain!”

I think everyone at some point deals with back pain, whether it be a constant problem or occasional issue.  This book is for both types of people.  For me, I get the occasional back pain and when I get it, oh do I get it.  I really liked reading this book and seeing how different types of people recovered and got through their pain.  They are inspirational stories saying “I did it.  You can too.” and “Don’t give up.”  This book differs from traditional Chicken Soup books as after the stories there is actual medical advice from Dr. Julie Silver of Harvard Medical School.   She gives tips, suggests preventative exercises, discussions to have with you doctor (and explains the different doctors you may encounter) and so much more.  This book really is great for anyone, especially those suffering with back pain.  For me too, it helped me understand what I think my grandmother is suffering from.
