A specialist in osteopathic medicine shows you how to be entirely pain-free in 12 weeks. Knee pain affects millions of Americans—and women make up the bulk of sufferers. While it is the anatomy, physiology, hormones, and habits of women that likely determine when and how knees fail, many doctors still insist on treating women’s knees like smaller versions of men’s knees. No More Knee Pain presents the first medically proven program designed especially for women. Written by Dr. George Kessler, who has helped hundreds of women heal their pain and reverse degenerative problems, this is the definitive book on female knee pain. Focusing on the structural and hormonal issues that bring about knee problems in women, No More Knee Pain will have you feeling stronger, healthier, and in much less pain within six weeks. Offering treatments for both prevention and healing, it includes straightforward information on: • What mainstream medicine offers women with knee pain—and what it doesn’t • The importance of good posture • How unbalanced hormones can take a toll on your joints and what to do about it • What to eat in order to ease joint pain • Exercise dos and don’ts • Mind-body factors • Nutritional supplements • Alternative approaches • Body mechanics, posture corrections, and knee exercises that really work—in just a few minutes a day Filled with case studies, simple exercises, and time-tested wisdom, this breakthrough book will help you say good-bye to your knee pain—and walk comfortably through the world again.

These 11 stretches are illustrated with photographs and full descriptions so that you can easily follow along step by step. Imagine what it is like to stop thinking about your knees. Imagine a life where you can actually say "yes" to things you feel like doing without any hesitation... The Comfort Zone ebook is designed to give you the information that gets your knees out of pain.A few recent comments from readers:"I really liked the psychological approach (and something you said on your website about staying hydrated).What I like even more is your sign-off, "Making Knee Replacement Surgery Obsolete in my Lifetime"!! I'm 26+ and was diagnosed with a minor meniscus tear some years ago. I was recommended an arthroscope and "maybe" more surgery after that though I didn't want to go for it after viewing some knee surgery videos on YouTube. The problem with my knees seems to be this chronic tightness in the muscle behind the knees-- (I've had that tightness there since I was 11 years old--couldn't squat with my feet flat on the ground; couldn't do downward dog pose with heels touching the ground--I am able to finally do those things now).I have already recommended your website/products to some friends and will continue to do so! I hate modern medicine most of the time (especially when it's unnecessarily invasive). More natural and sensible approaches are very much appreciated. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and helping so many people!!"Jessica C."It gave me information that was very enlightening. I especially liked the information about the anatomy. I admit that I didn't know that my knees had no muscles. Very interesting.It has given me perspective on what to do and how to do it in terms of knowing the anatomy of what I'm working with and how to work or exercise to heal my knees and body as a whole."Elijah M. "Getting in position to do the stretches was a chore in itself.This told me I have some serious flexibility issues.Then opening up my knee joint was a struggle.The result of relieving the pressure was awesome. The stretches are worth the effort and your videos are a huge help because some people like myself learn better from watching and then doing."Robert H.

Primum non nocere... The fact that a surgical procedure can leave any kind of pain casts a shadow over this tenet, which is seen as the basis of medical practice and anchor of its principle ethic... It is all the more surprising in that medicine has only paid attention to this paradoxical chronic pain situation for the past few years. Clarifying the knowledge acquired in this field has become all the more urgent for any care-giver today confronted by a legitimate request from patients: Why and how can a surgical procedure, which is supposed to bring relief, leave behind an unacceptable sequela? This is the approach which the contributors to this new subject of major clinical interest invite you to follow as you work your way through this book.

More than 20 years have passed since the International Symposium on Total Knee Replacement was held in London in 1974. Prosthetic design and operative technique have been greatly improved since then, and there is now an accepted standard concept of total knee arthroplasty. Thirteen years after the London symposium, another international symposium on total knee replacement was held, this time in Nagoya, Japan, in 1987. Its ambitious objective was to push forward the frontiers of continuous investigation and improve ment of total knee replacement. The fruits of the individual efforts presented at the Nagoya symposium were published in a volume of proceedings entitled Total Knee Replacement. In the years since 1987, further investigations have been conducted in various parts of the world regarding prosthetic design, fixation, long-term radiological follow-up, biomechanical evaluation, and biomaterials research. In knee ligament reconstruc tion, rapid progress has been made in the past five years in clinical practice and fundamental research by means of arthroscopic surgery and tissue transplantation, and we have come close to establishing a standard treatment. Under these circumstances, an international symposium on knee joint reconstruc tion was planned for 1994, again to be held in Nagoya, to provide ample opportunity for exchanging information and sharing clinical experience from around the world.
