Review: #MadBack: How To Stop The Hurting And Reclaim Your Life, Easily, Now

Is your back mad at its discomfort, stiffness, fatigue or pain? 

Have you ever wondered why, despite countless excellent books and articles published on spinal health and back pain, and despite countless marvelous medical progresses made in spinal health and back pain treatment, back pain and spinal issues remain pervasive, and the back and spinal health of an average American continues to decline? 

Reason is simple: some basic truths have been ignored, for too long. 

Base on decade long holistic researches, this book helps you resolve this dilemma, and reduce, relieve and prevent back and spinal problems easily and effectively. 

Unlike most books written from the perspective of a single healthcare discipline, such as conventional medicine, chiropractic, osteopath, physiotherapy, or massage therapy, this book has been written from a third-party and holistic perspective and is discipline neutral. 

Back pain is a complex issue. No one healthcare discipline has all the answers. It deserves and demands a multidisciplinary view and approach. 

This book is the result of an exhaustive comprehensive holistic research. It aims to break down the silo views and approaches. It helps you better understand the landscape of the back and spinal health care options. It is not written to please or promote any particular discipline of healthcare. It doesn't recycle standard text information. Being politically correct or academically perfect isn't among the intentions of this book. Feelings may be hurt. Disagreements may arise. 

This book has one objective only – help you, the sufferer of back issues, stop the hurting and reclaim your life! It has been written to provide you with the information and insight that matters, to you. 

In this book, you will discover … 

- why you may be continuing injuring your back unknowingly 
- why your current approach to your back problems may be hurting you more
- critical back mechanisms you can learn to regain [enjoy] a pain-free back
- right care for your back condition
- 6 secret habits you can build for a healthy pain free back 
- 35 back misconceptions you can overcome for your future well-being, and
- many more secret insights that you must know to keep your back and spine strong.

Read this book only if you want to broaden your horizon, only if you want to know things that you can’t find in other books, only if you want to become a true partner of your own back and spine, and only if you want to actively take your own responsibilities and initiatives to control the destiny of your back and spine. 

To a large extent, turning your back health around requires a paradigm shift. You must be ready for this shift. Your effort is required because it may need you to adapt to new understanding, new views, new approaches, new habits, and new life styles. Simply popping pills, presenting yourself in a clinic, or putting yourself on an operation table aren't parts of the new paradigm. 

This book tells you the truth that matters. This book is a tool that you can use. It provides you with effective secrets that you can zero in upon and apply it immediately for your particular concern or purpose. 

Now meet Mr. Patrick Lee, author of this book, a Human Spinal Biomechanics Researcher, and has worked with over 2000 licensed back pain specialists from around the world, in helping improve their patient care and promoting spinal health for their patients.  Having received his Master’s degrees in Germany and the Netherlands, and as a member of the Association of German Engineers he has worked and lived in five countries.  His publications and speeches have been praised on four continents, and he is willing to give one of my readers a copy of his book, and all you have to do is enter the rafflecopter below.  Mr. Lee I would like to thank you personally for the honor of reviewing your book, and the new light it has shed on my own life.

                                                                      My Review:

Being in pain 24/7 I was very interested in what this book would tell me. In my young years I had a bad back injury, after that one of my vertebra's  would walk out of line (how I explain it)  and the pain wouldn't stop till I stretched enough so it would plop back in place. Now I have pain all the time and this book explain so much and helps me, I had the feeling the author knew what I was going through. This book has good tips and advise it is a must read for people with back pains.


I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

The Search History of a Crime Novelist

It is a long-running joke among writers that their Google search history must have landed them on several government watchlists. Here are some of the highlights from writing Code Runner, Book Two in The Amy Lane Mysteries:

"liver temp in submerged bodies"

My reason: I wanted to know how accurately time of death could be calculated in a body found underwater. As it turns out, time of death is a pretty inexact science in the first place and water, particularly seawater, complicates things further. 

Watchlist reason: This woman is clearly trying to dispose of a body in water.

"preserving wet paper as evidence"

My reason: My detectives find a wet piece of paper and they need to preserve it. I asked Dr Laura Walton-Williams and Dr Claire Gwinnett, lecturers in underwater forensics at the University of Staffordshire, to help me out with this and other tricky questions. Apparently, the key is to flatten the paper by weighting the corners BEFORE it dries. This maximises the chances of preserving the evidence.

Watchlist reason: This criminal is either trying to destroy evidence with water or recover something incriminating.

"ankle GPS tracking device"

My reason:  My hacker Amy Lane loves GPS trackers. She exploits them in devices that already possess them - phones, tablets, etc. - and she plants them on her nearest and dearest to make sure she can find them again. Which basically means her assistant, Jason Carr. I was investigating all the different ways one might plant a GPS tracker - including subdermal - and this was one of them. It is also, of course, used by law enforcement to ensure criminals keep to curfews and geographical restrictions.

Watchlist reason: This spy is attempting to track down our citizens.

"illegal firearms uk"

My reason: It's good to know exactly how much your bad guys are breaking the law when they act out. Have they stolen someone's legitamate shotgun? Do they, in fact, have a licence? Or are they using a weapon that is completely and utterly illegal, like a complimentary search I performed: "uzi submachine gun". That's all. Honest, guv.

Watchlist reason: The terrorist is obtaining weapons! MOVE IN!

Quiver of the Heart by Burnita Bluitt Book Blast

Granddaughter of a loving, but roguish businessman, Blis Dumas can’t escape a legacy of lies. The time is 1989. The place is San Francisco, where painful stories of gentrification, eviction and relocation still echo within its limits. Clinging desperately to the Victorian home she inherited, she is confronted by a stranger that brings her a life filled with revenge, corruption, and murder. In an unparalleled twist of fate, she discovers that her predicament may have roots buried much closer to home. Blis’ world starts to crumble as she fights the Bureau to save the home she adores; fights the temptation of an incorrigible former lover; and fights the peril threatening the tender passion of a new and budding romance. QUIVER OF THE PURE HEART will appeal to readers that appreciate a social setting that illuminates the universal themes of desire, forgiveness, revenge, and letting go. San Francisco is one of the loves of Blis’ life, and like any love relationship, it is where her emotions will be tested, where romance will live and die, and where people are not always as they seem. Burnita Bluitt offers a spirited and passionate story of love and corruption in the city by the bay.

About the Author:

Born in Mississippi, but raised in San Francisco. As a child I once lived in an Italianate Victorian similar to the one I’ve written about, only it was solid white. I used to like to sit in the bay window trying to hold the newspaper to look at the pictures. Through writing the book I’ve reignited my passion for San Francisco’s rich architecture. Don’t be surprised if you’re the owner of one of these beauties and you see me snapping a picture of your house. Here’s a little bit more about me than you ever wanted to know: I’m a Virgo, favorite color is yellow, love the ocean, adore cats but allergic, if I had been born a boy I’d be Byron Shay instead of Burnita Rene, biggest vice is See’s Candies, won writing scholarships to San Francisco Writer's Conference - 2013 and VONA - 2012, Ben & Jerry are my two favorite guys, degree in history, taught myself to knit, can’t sew, love exercising to audiobooks, delight in gardening and encouraging young things to grow, childhood book I enjoyed most was “Where the Wild Things Are,” can’t believe I don’t have a favorite author, and no kids, so can’t come up with any excuses to put off writing.

Do I Bother You At Night Anniversary Blast

Do I Bother You At Night is Celebrating It's One Year Anniversary On October 4th! To thank all his loyal readers Troy is giving away a Caseable Kindle Folio from his new online store Tribal Style Design to one reader during the blast! Book Blurb: They say nothing ever happens in Kansas. Sylvester Petersen used to think so too. That is, until a mysterious new neighbor moves in next door, seemingly out of nowhere. His handful of friends – people who tried to help him cope with the sudden death of his wife – think that it might be an opportunity for him to get reacquainted with the world outside his farmhouse and to build a new relationship with his neighbor. But that idea is soon snuffed out as strange events begin to happen around him. None of them wrong. Just strange: driving in the middle of the night, the sulfur-like odor coming off of him, the fact he doesn’t talk to anyone in the area. And what about that dog? Sylvester chooses the logical explanation and ignores the peculiar behavior. But when other oddities start to happen – the kind that affects Sylvester directly – he begins to worry. His reasoning dwindles and his growing fear points to his neighbor. Where is that stray dog going? After enough time, Sylvester starts to see and hear what the people of the area have been muttering about: Unexplainable blue light, corn crops moving on their own…the slaughtered cattle entirely too close to home. And that stray dog that keeps getting fatter and fatter… At the peak of summer, and with the walls closing in, Sylvester experiences something that will take him to the brink and haunt you forever. Bathed in loss, terror and human spirit, Do I Bother You at Night? will be a story you won’t forget and one that will give you a few restless evenings of your own. Love thy neighbor. "Do I Bother You At Night? by Troy Aaron Ratliff not only can be put on a list of one of my favorite frightening stories, it climbs near the peak of the mountain. Things happen in this story that made even a reader as jaded and hard to impress as me jump in my seat." - Alex Kimmell, author of The Key To Everything "As we know from his short fiction, Troy Aaron Ratliff revels - to our colorful benefit - in turning the ordinary on its head, often in terrifyingly plausible ways. In this, his first novel, he stretches into the realm of the supernatural, but of course, it continues to feel just as plausible because of the vivid characters at the heart of the story. Do I Bother You at Night? will stay with you for many nights." Mike Robinson, Author of The Prince of Earth and The Green-Eyed Monster
