(More customer reviews)I really enjoyed acting as an editor on this book. I learned so much!
Christy Lasich, MD, is a smart and compassionate doctor who, as a spine specialist, helps people with their back problems. (She's also quite funny!)
Here's an bit from the book:
"Why do so many women have neck pain? One reason is that women are more susceptible to whiplash injuries. Our vulnerability is not because we are weak and emotional; our vulnerability is actually due to basic structural differences. The primary structures injured during a snapping of the neck are the small joints, called the facet joints. These joints are held together by ligaments and protected by cartilage sandwiched between the bones. The facet joints of women move more during whiplash then do men's, possibly due to the fact that our ligaments are naturally looser (see Baby Machine Section)."
Did you know that? I didn't. This is a fun and highly informative book. If you have back issues (and most of us do) you'll certainly learn some tricks to save your back.
