Are you one of the 80 million North American women suffering from the chronic pain of: - Menstrual cramps
- Fibromyalgia
- Headaches
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Back or neck pain?
Starting today, you can put an end to your pain and reclaim your active life with Dr. Smith’s 8-step holistic program for women. Don’t let chronic pain rob you of life–– preventing you from being productive at work, caring for your family, exercising, and participating in activities you enjoy. The Women’s Guide to Ending Pain will show you how to take control today and end your pain with the latest complementary and conventional strategies. Dr. Smith’s 8-step program is different from other approaches because it targets the very reasons that cause women to hurt – – like chronic stress, hormonal fluctuations, sleep problems, depression, arthritis, sports injuries, and syndromes like fibromyalgia, which is increasingly prevalent and causes deep muscle pain and endless fatigue. Dr. Smith believes that no woman should accept pain as "normal" and gives you a pain expert’s secrets on how to stop pain quickly without depending on sedating medications that have harsh side effects. In his 8-step program, you’ll discover: - How the effects of hormones on a woman’s nervous system influence pain
- Unique signs, symptoms, and causes of your pain
- Ways to alleviate your pain, including natural dietary supplements, "pain-relieving" foods, yoga postures, mind/body exercises, massage and bodywork, new medications, and high-tech solutions
- Lifestyle habits and self-care measures you can start today that will provide tremendous relief
- Innovative methods to cope with the emotions associated with pain, including anxiety, anger, and depression

Summary: A book on ENDING PAIN for women--recommend
Comment: I reviewed this book and am recommending it to my women clients. A comprehensive trade book, the authors have superb credentials. Dr. Smith is a pain expert and medical doctor yet gives a well-thought-out holistic program that includes exercise (such as yoga and stretching), dietary changes, natural therapies including botanicals, stress management, and hands-on touch therapies, among others. The book focuses on pain that's common to women such as headaches, menstrual cramps, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, and other types and discusses how to best treat these with a multifaceted program. I'm keeping a copy on hand as a personal resource.

Summary: My doctor wrote this book!! Thank you.
Comment: I saw Dr. Smith when he was in Boston at Beth Israel (Harvard). He is the DEAREST, MOST COMPASSIONATE doctor I've ever known. I've suffered with chronic back pain for years, and Dr. Smith helped me find the right combination of therapies to resolve the pain and live my life again. This book is so totally him!! It is easy-to-read, compassionate, and helps women (like me) understand what is happening when we have pain. His treatment program is so conservative with many natural therapies listed and explained. He's the best--and this book reflects that.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Summary: Super guide for women only
Comment: I have been waiting for the release of this book ever since reading about it in a small magazine called OURSELVES. The book is everything I need--answers all my questions about pain and why I feel pain differently than my husband. It has superb remedies--both natural and medicine--for ending menstrual cramps, headaches, and back pain. I took notes and gave the book to a friend with fibromyalgia as there's a section on this, too.
Very refreshing, very revealing!! Finally--someone knows what women have endured and now WE know how to best treat it!
