Sciatica/Piriformis Syndrome: Learn to Understand the Feeling and Healing of Your Pain!

I just received this book a few days ago. After doing a few of the exercises and learning and applying a few of the basic concepts, I am already on my way to solving my piriformus problem with a program that makes sense, and this appears to be better than anything else I have tried to solve this problem. Easy to read book with clear instructions for exercises.

This book does have some very helpful information and tips for those of us who suffer the pain and discomfort of Piriformis Syndrome. However, this is over shadowed by how poorly the book is written and edited. The poor writing style hinders reading. As for the medical illustrations, they would be of great help to the reader if it was possible to see them. Even with a x10 magnifier I was not able to read the labels on the line drawings. And often the text makes reference to an illustration that is not even on the mentioned page! The editor and publishers should be shot! Although helpful, I'm sure there are other much better publications available.

I received this book, and the receipt was not included...I went online to see what I had paid. Over $16 for what is really a glorified printout from a website. While it had okay information, the print often refers to illustrations that don't exist, or the print instructs you to look at the red part of the illustration when all illustrations are in black and white. Additionally, much of the print is so tiny in the illustrations, you can't read them without magnification. Most significantly, the photographs that go with the exercises are very, very dark and in places hard to see. The directions that accompany the photos are okay, but with small, very dark photos to follow, I am very disappointed. It appears that the book was printed on April 12, 2013, in response to my order, which makes me think it is printed to order. So, perhaps mine was a copy that was very dark. Still, it speaks to quality control. For something that is a printout/pamphlet, I am very disappointed at the quality and cost.

Provides a great description of the bodies components that relate to this extremely painful condition but does very little to describe how to avoid it or help recover from it. Yes, they are exercises in it but these are loosely described at the very end of the book. The diagrams are also too small to read!

Great advice distilled into a small, easy to read book. I highly recommended this book. It is really helping me.
