One-Minute Book Review
The Pain Switch Formula: Step-by-Step Guide to Relieve Pain, Recover from Injuries, and Restore Full-Body Mobility with Self-Massage and Targeted Exercises – by Noah Collins
The author, a physiotherapist, tackles the problem of pain (acute and chronic), with the three-step method:
Release
Restore
Reinforce
In other words, understanding what is going on and addressing it in a way that eases pain immediately, restores normal function, and reinforces it against future recurrence.
Which may sound like a magical fix, and certainly the title leans into that, but the methodology is sound and based in good science, and explained in detail with regard to a long list of things that can (and commonly do) go wrong with the human body.
The style is a little sensationalized for this reviewer’s personal taste, but it doesn’t detract from the large amount of practical information contain within this book.
Bottom line: if you’d like to deal with a pain in a way that isn’t just masking it or otherwise learning to live with it, then this book can help with very many causes of such.
