The Healthy Back Institute is currently offering a Free Trial of Heal N Soothe, all you pay is the postage and handling charges and recieve a 90-count bottle (One Month Supply). For more details please CLICK HERE.

As correctly pointed out by Kevin, I am about one month into my trial of the Heal N Soothe product and it’s about time for another update. In fact we recieved an email last Friday stating that the next months supply is on it’s way and with only a dozen or so tablets left that is a good thing.

The past five days in particular have given me a good insight into what Heal N Soothe is, and what it isn’t.

I have been loosely toying with the idea of setting up our business again, this time as a ‘mobile’ auto repair service. My thinking was that this offered very low overheads and I could plod along slowly without the pressure of making a quota everday just to cover running costs.

I am still in contact with a number of our previous customers and I decided to test my theory by taking on a few jobs, mainly just servicing, one thermostat change and easy stuff like that. This all ended yesterday when I pushed through three jobs in the one day and WAY over did it! Last night and today were complete write-off’s, spent mostly lying down with the occasional stretching routine and a couple of hot showers.

Which brings me to my point’s about the Heal N Soothe. Without it I wouldn’t have even dreamt about doing anything like this. Previously my days were spent in a doped-up cloud, I was unable to think clearly and my energy levels were just about non-existant.

What the Heal N Soothe has done for me is provide a good level of pain relief while still being able to function quite well. I find getting up in the morning a lot easier, even after only a few hours sleep and I have a renewed interest in life.

Now while this is a big relief for me to feel this way, what I can tell you is that Heal N Soothe is not the type of medication that you look for when you’ve pushed yourself to the limit. It’s not something that when you feel the onset of pain you take two and wait for it to kick in, rather it is a medication that when taken several times a day will provide you with a level of pain relief that makes going about normal daily activities very easy.

After my little ‘experiment’ with working on the cars I came to realise (of course much later than my wife, she knew this would happen even before I started!) that although I felt capable of taking this on, and certainly from a ‘mental’ point of view I thought I was ready there was no way I was going to get through it without triggering my back pain, my body just isn’t up to the task yet.

So in summarizing, I believe that the Heal N Soothe product is excellent for providing lasting pain relief without sending you off with the fairies while going about normal daily activities. Another thing that I like about it is that I no longer get stomach cramps and ‘plumbing’ issues that came with the Panadeine Forte. I’m sure my long term health is also benefiting from the reduced intake of the regular pain killers.

What I do suggest though is that you keep a small supply of your regular pain medication handy for times when you push it a bit too far. You will probably have more self control than myself and not do crazy things like crawl around motor cars, but after a while of feeling pretty good it is hard not to try and get back to some sort of normality in your life.

If after using the system for 30 days you don’t feel that you have benefited from it you can simply send it back and not pay a cent more.

If like so many others you find that the system is working for you, once the 30 day trial period is up the cost of the system will be billed to your credit card. How much, you ask? $79 for the Online version and $97 for the DVD/VHS versions.

Considering the amount of information given to you with this system I think this represents very good value and judging from the success that I have had with thier Heal N Soothe product I know that this won’t be just another crack-pot product designed to fleece you of your money and nothing else.

Their customer service is also exceptionally good which in my mind at least gives me confidence in their products.

I also want to add that although I have every confidence in this Lose The Back Pain system, I started out earlier this year using the SLM Bodywork methods and I want to see this to the end, or at least to a point where I can function as a normal human being! If I wasn’t following the SLM treatment I certainly would be giving this a go.

If you are interested in giving the Lose The Back Pain System a go (for $1 if you choose the online version!) CLICK HERE for more details and we’d love to hear how you get on with it.

Despite what we are led to believe, a recent University of Alabama study has found that people who use weight training to ease their lower back pain are better off than thier counterparts that chose other forms of exercise.

Surprising considering that a large percentage of lower back pain is said to be contributed to muscle strain or imbalances. I think I will keep to my laps of the pool to exercise my back muscles but it’s an interesting read none the less.

People who use weight training to ease their lower back pain are better off than those who choose other forms of exercise such as jogging, according to a University of Alberta study.

The study, done in conjunction with the University of Regina, showed a 60 per cent improvement in pain and function levels for people with chronic backache who took part in a 16-week exercise program of resistance training using dumbbells, barbells and other load-bearing exercise equipment.

In contrast, people who chose aerobic training such as jogging, walking on a treadmill or using an elliptical machine to ease their back pain only experienced a 12 per cent improvement, said Robert Kell, an assistant professor of exercise physiology at the University of Alberta, Augustana Campus.

The resistance-training group showed improvements in pain and function of about 60 per cent, while those who took aerobic training experienced only a 12 per cent improvement.

“Any activity that makes you feel better is something you should pursue, but the research indicates that we get better pain management results from resistance training.” The extra benefits stem from using the whole-body approach required in resistance training, Kell believes. “We tried to strengthen the entire body and by doing that, we decreased the fatigue people felt throughout the day. They were better able to perform their activities of daily living.” Aerobics training generally works just the lower body, he added.

Approximately 80 per cent of North Americans suffer from lower back pain at some point in their lifetimes, and for 85 per cent of them the pain is chronic.

Both types of training did provide other fitness benefits, such as lower body fat, the study showed.

The findings are to be published in early 2009 in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research.
