Gary Kaplan

This was a very interesting read.

I found it's geared to help you rethink disease.."not as a single event but an accumulations of traumas."
The patient is studied with a personal comprehensive approach, involving the integration of medical traditions.
Emotional, physical, infective and environmental considerations allow focus on causes, not symptoms.

A holistic approach, a treatment of mind and body can "create a pathway to healing" and help discourage a lock into a lifetime of pain and suffering.

The following thought, from Kaplan's book is definitely worth considering:
"Every injury, every infection, every toxin, and every emotional blow generates the same reaction: inflammation, activated by tiny cells in the brain, called microglia. Turned on too often from too many assaults, it can have a devastating cumulative effect."

After the audio read, I found it deserving of further study and now own a hardcover copy.
Since we're all acquainted with the experience of pain, I recommend it as a worthwhile read.This was a very interesting read.

I received an ARC from Net Galley to review honestly.

Wowza! I had so many light bulb moments while reading this.

I have been in such pain for so long, and really thought it was something I just have to deal with. Dr. Kaplan shows that there is another way.

A way that will take you to the sicker side of things as your body lets go of the toxins within, which hold us back from healing. This book is not a, you will be better in X days, but more of a " there is hope, but you have to work for it, and need the right people helping you get there."

I will be making changes in how my health is managed in 2014, as a result of reading this book. Most of my Dr.s are within the same clinic to start with, now to get us all on the same page, together, including me.

The book appears to have a new title, The Pain Solution.… (altro)
