I wake up at least once a week (and in bad weeks, much more than that) with back pain.  The 7-Minute Back Pain Solution just might be my solution to this problem.  Of course, I will have to consult with my doctor first before I try anything (and you probably should too) but most of the solutions in this book seem easy enough so I think my doctor will ok most, if not all, of them.

What the 7-minute back pain solution basically is, is a series of stretches that you can do depending on your back pain and what you are doing.  Going to shovel snow? Sitting in a meeting at work? Pregnant? Almost any situation you can think of is mentioned in this book as well as some people who had issues that have gotten better simply by doing stretches every morning when they wake up and before bed to loosen up their body a bit so that it doesn’t get stiff.

I really hate to take meds when my back hurts, or use a heating pad (I feel fine when it is hot, but once the heat goes off, the pain comes back) and The 7 Minute Back Pain Solution offers something that is said to help without using any meds or heating pads, simply just taking a few minutes out of my day to stretch!

I received a free review e-copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley in order to write this review. I was not otherwise compensated.
