An Effective Pathway for Chronic Pain Relief Kindle Edition

Nonfiction / Sports Medicine

Date Published: May 14, 2023

Publisher: ‎102nd Place, LLC

YOU DON’T HAVE TO LIVE WITH CHRONIC PAIN!

If you’ve tried traditional pain relief treatments and haven’t found the relief you desire, this book is for you.

People with chronic pain are often told they must live with it. For many of you, this is simply not true! Most traditional care approaches are based on acute pain (recent injury) principles. These approaches don’t always apply to chronic or persistent pain. Chronic pain can be more complicated than acute pain and often requires taking a different approach.

Dr. Zimmerman has spent over fifteen years researching the causes of chronic pain and has discovered a new, noninvasive path toward relief. It is a path based on treating the causes of your pain, not just the symptoms.

In this book, you’ll discover:

• The five common causes of chronic pain

• Why prior treatments may not have been effective

• New, effective, and sustainable approaches to chronic pain relief

About the Author

Dr. Zimmerman has been treating pain for over thirty years. Throughout this time, he realized chronic pain was becoming a huge epidemic in America. In 2006, he decided to focus on new, noninvasive treatment technologies for chronic pain sufferers and has a reputation for helping the most difficult cases.

Dr. Zimmerman is certified in physical medicine modalities and therapeutic procedures, is a chiropractic physician, and has extensive experience and expertise in the multiple pain-relieving technologies he utilizes today.

by Dr. Christopher L. Smith

Memoir

Date Published: January 2023

“I wish I could just die,” I said to myself as my teeth chattered and my body shook with cold. Knowing I would probably still wake in the morning with my hair frozen to the door, I curled up in a ball, trying to find some warmth in the car that was my bedroom. Sadness consumed me like an infection; it had become the norm for me to wake up every day feeling broken.

Most nights like this, all I could hope for was to die in my sleep to be rid of the pain. Despite the terrible nights, I still woke up, dressed, and went to my only refuge, my high school.

This was my life, often alone, cold, sad, and hungry. My youth was different than most, but this was my reality.

However, despite the hardship that was my life and being homeless, something led me on, something saw me through. I survived, I found hope, and eventually, a life even better than I had imagined. Even though I so often faced darkness, I discovered light, laughter, and happiness.

I journeyed from that broken, homeless teenager sleeping in the car to eventually being a Medical Doctor at the world-renowned Johns Hopkins. But most important of all, I found me, I found joy.

This is my story.

Homeless to Hopkins.

Genre: Epic Fantasy 

Rion’s prophecy gives him hope through his bleakest years, while Ginny’s prophecy haunts her….

Caves of Glass

by C.A. Gray

Genre: Epic Fantasy

The illegitimate son of a peasant, Rion of Tryferos has very limited prospects with only one remarkable talent: when he plays the lyre, he ushers in the supernatural balm of peace to all who hear. This turns out to be his ticket into the palace, where he nightly plays for the restless, rejected king. King Hector of Tryferos is paranoid, because he knows his days on the throne are numbered. What he doesn’t know is that his anointed successor is Rion.

Princess Genevieve is a spare to the throne of Mageia, shunned by all but her mother out of fear of her magical gift: she possesses the power to manipulate the thoughts and desires of those around her. But Ginny would do anything just to be normal. When a fulfilled prophecy of her mother’s untimely death also foretells that Ginny will ascend the Mageian throne, Ginny wonders whether she has any control over her own fate at all, or whether everything is predetermined.

Both Rion and Ginny are drawn to the forbidden Caves of Glass at the icy pinnacles that border their two perpetually feuding nations. According to legend, the Caves are either a place of strange forbidden magic, or else a place where all deception is stripped away, leaving only clarity and truth in its wake. As Rion flees for his life and Ginny struggles against her destiny, in the Caves of Glass, they find both each other, and themselves.

C.A. Gray is a Naturopathic Medical Doctor (NMD), with a primary care practice in Tucson, Arizona. She has always been captivated by the power of a good story, fictional or otherwise, which is probably why she loves holistic medicine: a patient’s physical health is invariably intertwined with his or her life story, and she believes that the one can only be understood in context with the other. For freebies, giveaways, and new release info, sign up for her newsletter at http://eepurl.com/F3rof.

Her favorite fictional tales have always been epic battles of good versus evil, with a strong tendency towards parable. An idealist herself, she has always been convinced that these stories have something deeply true to tell us about the human condition, and that is why we love them so much… or at least that’s why she does.

She still wants to be everything when she grows up. She moonlights as a college chemistry teacher (she has a degree in biochemistry, with minors in Spanish and Creative Writing), does theater when she gets the chance, sings, plays piano, was once a personal trainer and in coffee shop management. She is blessed with exceptionally supportive family and friends, and thanks God for them every single day.

 Asbury High Series, Book 7

Young Adult Cozy Mystery

Date to be Published: 07-02-2023

Publisher: Purple Milk Publishing

Entering their Senior year, the gang believes they left the rough seas behind on their summer cruise. Yet while they were away, seemingly random graffiti spread throughout Asbury. After a talented, young woman goes missing, Maddie, Cornelious, Carly and Pilot wonder if there could be a connection—since the graffiti suddenly stops. Things take a turn for the worse when her body is found a few weeks later, viciously murdered.

Most believe the murderer to be an outsider, until cryptic journal entries and close friends of the young woman point to someone in town. Things only get messier when the local bully (and Pitbulls gang leader) approaches the four sleuths, announcing one of his Pitbulls has gone missing as well. Could his missing Pitbull simply be the murderer on the run?

The deeper they investigate, the foggier everything seems. When Jeremiah Gibbz is arrested for murder, Cornelious is torn between trusting his father or accepting the mounting evidence.

In addition to Jeremiah’s legal troubles, he begins planning a presidential campaign and brings a hopeful future running mate to town…with his family. Among the new family, is beautiful and sly high school Senior, Chelsea Jaminucco—who (with Jeremiah’s blessing) is intent on making Cornelious her own.

Through everything, the gang celebrates their senior year with friends and each other. As scholarships and college loom closer than ever, the foursome find it difficult to focus on the case.

When typical high school problems and slippery interferences crowd the gang’s life, can they find the truth behind Asbury’s gruesome murder? Can they stick together, or will this case be the one that pulls them apart for good?

About the Author

For as long as she could remember, Kelly Brady Channick loved making up stories, and leaving her listeners/readers on the edge of their seats.

Perhaps that’s why she always managed to talk herself out of trouble…

After graduating from Ocean City High School in NJ, Kelly accepted a basketball scholarship to Holy Family University, in Philadelphia. As a lifelong athlete, Kelly understands the importance of teamwork and overcoming adversity, something she hopes translates into her books.

Before writing page-turners, she taught first, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth grade — like a dessert menu, she simply had to test them all out. But her favorite job is the one she’s now doing full time: writing. Kelly loves to craft whodunit mysteries, leading readers through various twists and turns filled with red-herrings, hidden clues, and more peculiar characters than a reality show.

Kelly lives in South Jersey with her handsome husband, handful of energetic kids, two cookie-stealing dogs, and an awfully smart cat.

Light From the Dark: Protecting What’s Theirs

by R Sullins

Genre: Dark Romantic Suspense

She escaped the cage of one serial killer, only to fall right into the arms of another…

She was everything they had been waiting for.

Brent and Ethan had been in a committed relationship since high school.

They were both dominant men and enjoyed testing each other’s limits,

But they each knew they longed to feel the softness of a woman.

But not any woman.

The perfect woman for them.

Casey had been running for so long, and so far,

she didn’t even know where she was anymore.

Literally, she had no idea where her bus dropped her off.

All she knew was that she was tired, deep down in her bones.

She knew the small town seemed nice, and the owners of the diner were good people.

She also knew that the men she had caught a glimpse of made her heart beat faster—and if the rings they wore were any indication, they were both taken.

Brent and Ethan needed to convince this frightened young woman to stay in town long enough to give them a chance.

They knew she was running from something, and to them, it didn’t matter what that was. They were ready to protect her from anything.

But how would Casey feel when she found out one of her men had even more blood on his hands than the killer she was running from?

R. Sullins is a USA Today bestselling author, an International Bestseller, and a KDP All Star.

Family is number one in her life, followed by her menagerie of pets. Be patient with her, she’s not very good at peopling.

She is a lover of fairies, tattoos, and coffee cups, has a vast collection of them all, and receives a glare from her teenager every time she brings home a new cup to squeeze into the cabinet.

When she’s not writing, you will probably be able to find her reading a book. But, no matter what genre you find her immersed in, there is always one thing that her favorite stories have in common…you will never, ever find her reading any book with cheating. So rest assured! She will never write one, either.

A bit of drama, a dash of spice, a little bit of innocence, and a large dab of alpha is what makes up the recipe for her stories. Find more of her here: www.rsullins.com
