Pelvic Pain: An American Surgeon Liberates Himself

Lea Wilson discovered what many people suffering with the agonizing and emotionally stressful pelvic pain disorder already knew: Chronic Pelvic Pain (CPP) is a poorly understood clinical syndrome of related diagnoses AND research has verified huge difficulties in effective treatment. Affecting as many as 9% of men, Chronic Pelvic Pain continues to baffle the clinicians.

Her husband's suffering (>3 years) provided motivation to gain understanding about the cognitive-behavioral models of chronic pain and the mind-body implications as reported in research of the condition.

Excerpt from book: "A few years ago, I was watching as my husband's pelvic pain worsened in frequency and intensity. He could not take the long walks on the beach that were supposed to become one of the highlights of our retirement. He was okay during surgery but could not turn away from the operating room table without almost doubling over in pain."

The author recounts the daily practices of less than one year that allowed her husband to free himself from his pain. The practice addresses the roles of attention/awareness, intention, posture, position, movement, and breath. The practices are simple, utilizing the neuroplasticity of our human brain in altering brain "real estate" to pursue relief and resolution of this disorder. The book offers the specifics of the practice support offered daily.

The book also defines specific key practice concepts used to dispel "beginner's" uncertainty, reinforcing information as her husband actively engaged in applying new understanding during daily practices.

The author has written a book that is accessible to anyone seeking to understand and apply current understanding of human brain functions, to explore the possibilities for a compassionate transformative change in health and other areas of life, and to explore the possibilities of liberation from chronic pain.
