Priceless
I rarely write reviews. I should, just don’t have/make the time. But this book changed my life after nothing else worked and I was literally minutes from surgery. I had injured my C7-T1 disk such that it was significantly herniated and pressing on the C8 nerve root. For 3 months, I went to physical therapy, slept in a chair every night in a weird position that provided some relief, and saw various pain specialists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, and orthopedic surgeons. When nothing helped I scheduled a keyhole laminectomy with a world-renowned neurosurgeon. At the same time, a family member who had neck issues (he is also a radiologist) urged me to try this book before getting surgery. Having had 2 lower back surgeries in the past, I was familiar with the greatly unpleasant process of recovering from spinal surgery and was willing to anything to avoid it. But I was risking permanent nerve damage by delaying much further. So I kept my surgery date and started the McKenzie Method immediately and with all my vigor as soon as the book arrived. To me, this book was worth, literally, at least 1,000 times its price (considering just the costs of surgery and physical therapy, and not including all the pain and suffering it saved me). It explains in the perfect amount of detail exactly what is happening and why, allowing the reader to understand the problem and how the exercises work to treat the problem, helping the reader visualize the cure while doing the exercises. After 2 weeks of doing the exercises, my pain had subsided considerably, but I still showed up for surgery because it was not entirely gone, and I felt that the dexterity and strength I lost in my left hand due to the nerve compression had not returned. I was in the pre-op room at the hospital, in my gown, nurses and anesthesiologist coming in and prepping. Then my surgeon walks in with a team of med students behind him, eager to observe the procedure. He runs through the series of simple tests we had done during office visits (squeeze his fingers to test strength, etc.), and then he tells me that the surgery is off. He said I had shown such great improvement in such a short amount of time that it is clearly evidence of recovery that he expected to continue without risking further nerve damage. I refer to it as the best surgery I never had, and I truly believe that I owe it to the McKenzie Method. Thank you, thank you, thank you Robin McKenzie. This was over 3 years ago. Although I made a full recovery without surgery, I have had occasional (maybe once every 6 months) minor relapses (pain in the neck and shoulder blade, sometimes a little numbness in the pinkie). Immediately upon onset of the pain, I use the exercises in the book and the pain goes away (usually within the day, but sometimes a couple of days). I have also purchased McKenzie’s book for the lower back and try to follow its wisdom regularly. It, too, is very well written. I tend to be one of those readers who wants to flip to the exercises, which are in the middle-back of both books. But after reading both books multiple times, I can verify that there is great benefit to starting on page 1 and reading through. At least in my case, the explanation of the anatomy, movement, and problems was spot on, and therefore provided a calming effect. The explanation of the movement of pain during recovery while doing the exercises was equally spot on, and greatly encouraging.

Incredibly (and surprisingly) effective
I went to my physical therapist with shoulder, arm, and upper back pain. Within 10 seconds she identified my neck as the problem. I thought she was crazy, but did the weird exercises she gave me anyway, and started to feel better within hours. After a couple weeks, I was better than ever. Now, 15 years later, I’m starting to feel a few twinges coming back, but I’ve forgotten most of the exercises, so I’m buying this again. Worth every penny.

Not a cure all, but a help.
The advice in this book most certainly does not necessarily help, but it certainly does not hurt. It’s a good guide for someone dealing with ongoing or long term neck injury. I purchased it as a companion to the cervical pillow (which I’ve already rated). It’s a resource and one that I found useful and extremely well written with sound practical advice. There was nothing banal about it. Short, to the point and easy to navigate.It’s not a cure for a neck injury, as anyone that suffers from herniated discs will tell you – but it is a good guide for giving oneself the best chance and keeping as comfortable as possible.

It works…
About 15 years ago I starting having problems with my back. I found out later I have a “.. herniated, stenotic, L5..”. I was off work a month, used moist heat, got a little PT, and finally a Cortisone shot. It’s a long story, but by the time my insurance would pay for the shot I was feeling much better. I went ahead and had the shot as sort of a prophylactic measure. Anyway, when I got back to work (I was doing work in a few LTAC places) one of the PT guys there told me to “…forget anything they told you and do what I tell you!” Turns out he was trained in the ‘McKenzie Method’. He gave me a few exercises to do, and a little information about why it works. Vola! It helped, maybe more than all the other things put together. Since then I have never really had any trouble with my back. It’s still there of course, but I baby it, and try not to do anything to aggravate it. If it starts to hurt I do a few simple exercises, and it gets better. So far so good….You may ask…what does this have to do with treating your NECK? Ok….about a couple months or so ago, I woke up with some really bad pain in my neck, shoulder area. At first I thought I had just strained it or something, but it wouldn’t go away, and was really bothering me quite a bit. I gradually begin to realise that this wasn’t just a strain, but was probably something to do with the disk in my neck. Sure enough it was confirmed via a MRI that I have “.. degenerative disk disease..”, with a herniated, C4-5, and narrowing between the C6-7. It sucks being 58 years old ya know…!Who knows when it started. It could have been all the physical labor I used to do for a living. It could’ve been when I played football…couldn’t been a couple of sucker punches I’ve had….not to mention the few times I have ‘BUMPED’ my head on something( I walked right into the chute of a Concrete truck once. Knocked me out to for a second. I went right back to work. Ah youth..it’s wasted on youth!)…who knows? It is just catching up with me…Anyway, when this neck trouble started I got busy trying to see what I could about McKenzie treatments for the Neck. I found this book, bought it, and it works! I think between this, and the McKenzie Neck Roll, my neck feels much better today…thank you. Honestly…I didn’t even follow it line for line. I took a couple of the exercises, and started doing them. It didn’t take long, but soon my neck was feeling good enough I told my Doc to hold off on the Cortisone shot for now. It didn’t make the hernia go away, but it sure made the pain go away. Like my Back I intend to baby my neck until that doesn’t work anymore…then go from there.I am here to tell you the McKenzie Method works..at least it did for me, and I hope it works for you. Get the book and try it!Good luck!

I am hoping to decrease my dependence on chiropractor visits. The book is a quick and easy read, but then can easily be referred to, in order to correctly do the prescribed exercises. Worth every dollar I paid (not many!) , and highly recommended. I bought âTreat your own backâ yearâs ago and have referred to it many many times and bought it for friends and family!

I had the intense pain of a broken arm just behind where a watch would be every day as a result of referred pain from my neck. It did this in the early hours so my sleep was badly affected. This pain eased with movement but it and other pains occurred through the day.Four weeks of physio didn’t help.Three weeks of Mckensie exercises has solved this pain problem.I found I went back to the book every week to take stock as there is a lot of very specific detail which I didn’t absorb fully until underway. This is partly because, done properly the exercises require an unusual muscular action you develop over time.In effect he advises that the exercises are done hourly (while awake).This book enabled me to substantially cure my neck and gives me the confidence to resume my nornal activities. I assume these exercises will always be necessary for me, regularly and after activities which challenge my neck.

Autant l’ouvrage du dos et rachis lombaire est intéressant et complet, autant celui du cou est minimaliste.Un livre pour vous expliquer que pour protéger vos disques au niveau des cervicales, cela se limite à 1 exercice. On recule le cou et basculement vers l’arrière… 1 h chez votre kiné et vous maîtriserez l’exercice sans lire l’ouvrage.2 étoiles tout de même car l’exercice fonctionne … Mais une explication sur feuille A4 aurait suffit.
