Friday, October 5, 1919 11 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Jewish Doctors Dealing With Pain in New Book NEW YORK — Chronic pain is America's most common, expensive and de- bilitating disorder. It is also, perhaps, the most widely misunderstood and mistreated, according to Dr. David E. Bresler, director of the UCLA Pain Control Clinic. In his new book, "Free Yourself From Pain" (Si- mon and Schuster), written ith Richard Trubo, Dr. resler presents a complete analysis of pain and its treatments. In the book, Dr. Bresler details 35 self-help regi- mens based on this philos- ophy., which are drawn from his own pioneering work at UCLA. As in the Pain Con- trol Unit, where patients play a major role in develop- ing their own programs, these exercises call upon the active participation of patients in determining a proper course of treatment. "Free Yourself From Pain" is designed to help the reader identify the cause of pain, evaluate the alternatives for aid, and, finally, mobilize the hidden, internal re- sources of the body for recovery. The success of Dr. Bresler's techniques is strikingly described in one case study after another. People with pain once thought "incurable" have learned to heal themselves from within. In his six years as director of the clinic, Dr. Bresler claims that 70-80 percent of his patients have recovered despite pessimis- , tic prognoses by their origi- nal doctors. Dr. Bresler examines the value of traditional medical techniques such as drags, surgery and psychotherapy, and also shows how physical therapies can help the chronic-pain sufferer. De- scribed as well are the bene- fits obtained from a wide array of unconventional methods such as acupuncture, hypnosis, biofeedback training and nutrition.
