| Publisher Description: In the current medical system, there are over 100 million Americans experiencing pain of varying degrees. Paindemic offers a perspective from Dr. Melissa Cady, a physician who is board certified in anesthesiology and pain medicine yet taught with osteopathic and allopathic approaches. Dr. Cady has suffered from chronic pain, which she has managed conservatively despite the opportunity to do more risky interventions. Paindemic offers the rational approach of the anti-PAIN Lifestyle as a solution to addressing chronic pain effectively with less risk. |
