sciatica relief February 12, 2010 jillyfitzwilly (columbus oh) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was going through a terrible bout of sciatica - three months with no relief in sight. I had tried everything - including just about every pain medication out there. Vicodin, darvon, oxycotin, percocet. Nothing touched the pain. A friend recommended getting an exercise program and this one seemed to have the most glowing reviews. It arrived on Friday morning and I immediately did the first set of excercises. I repeated the first set later that night and when I went to bed that night - I was pain free. I still can't believe it. I thought there was no way these simple exercises would do anything. I have never been so happy to be wrong!
Back Pain be Gone... January 23, 2010 eNVy (New York, NY United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Awesome product. Works better than anything else we have tried for lower back pain. Also, the trippy 70's video style, haircuts, leotards and bad visual effects only add to the overall enjoyment. Seriously though - this really works!
DVD Menu not included December 28, 2007 Susan Miles 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
This DVD does not have a menu. It is very difficult and time consuming to navigate to the exercises on the DVD. While the results may be worth the investment in this DVD, the quality isn't. In this age of high technology I expected a quality DVD in exchange for my money.
Happy Customer April 4, 2007 sassy miss 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I was diagnosed with a degenerative disc disease years ago. I have had flare ups of back pain that kept me from life and work. I have always dealt with stiffness and discomfort. It was a common occurrance to have pain when I'd bend forward and when I first got up in the morning. I am in week 3 of this program and I have been feeling much better. I have a lot less discomfort than when I began this program. This program is very relaxing at first, then gradually steps it up in intensity. I was very skeptical and afraid of hurting myself more by doing this program. Needless to say my fears were for nothing. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a gentle, relaxing way to reduce or eliminate their back discomfort. I can hardly wait to get home every day so that I can "do" my exercises. Thank you Dr. Melleby!
Great straight-foward tests & exercises to erase back pain September 28, 2006 Lena, LMT (Nassau, NY) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Back pain is mostly due to poor or little muscle use on a daily basis. Weak abs make your back work harder, poor posture puts strain. This course was done with over 1,000 people in the YMCA in the 1980s. Over 80% were pain free within 6 weeks. Only 2 % got worse & 5% felt no difference.
This comes with a nice booklet with many b&w photos so once you are used to it, you don't have to go through the dvd to get what you are looking for.
This is done on a stage with Dr. Alexander Melleby, M.S. teaching with 2 women in leotards & 2 men in shorts & tube socks demonstrating.
This was redone in 2005 for dvd with many chapters for the intro, who Dr. Melleby is, the reserach, the Kraus, M.D. study, what causes back pain, the YMCA study, self-evaluation, the 6 Kraus-Webber tests & 3 chapters for each of the 2 weeks of the 6 week program.
