Q: Back Pain Self Therapy

A simple tool for self therapy of Back Pain following the simple principles of the Dorn Method and Osteopathy: Spynamics Back Pain Self Therapy
Finally after a long period of try and error the Spynamics Sacro Aligner, a Back Pain Self Therapy Tool is ready.

Working successfully with the Dorn Method, http://www.dorn-method.com, I realized that the main reason why back pain sufferers do not improve long term and usually come back for therapy after some time is that they do not give their body enough time to re-organize and heal.
Although the Dorn Method Self Help Exercises are easy to do, cost nothing and require no special equipment nor time, most people will still not do them because they do not see the value.
They rather invest a fortune in finding a solution for their problem outside of them than creating a little self-discipline and take their destiny into their own hands again….
I am convinced that our sacrum is the most important bone in our system, the keystone of the building so to say, and by re-aligning it and keeping it aligned most pain in the structural system could be dealt with quite easily. Following the principles of the Dorn Method I designed a self help exercise for this that uses a small ball (tennis ball ) as replacement for the therapist´s hand. See all Dorn Method Self Help Exercises here:
http://www.dorn-method.com/index_files/Sel fHelpExercises.htm

Since then I had a Self Help Tool in my mind that could improve this ball exercise but it did not take shape until this year and after several month research and try out is now ready.
The versatility of this new gadget is fantastic yet as simple as the Dorn Method.
I called it Spynamics Sacro Aligner from Sp(ine) and (d)ynamic and alignment, because it is using spinal dynamics to re-align the sacrum.
Info at http://www.spynamics.com

Independant research on the tool is currently conducted and will be published when ready.

New devices are always interesting in the treatment of back pain....however, I suggest waiting until there is a CONTROLLED SCIENTIFIC TRIAL available. The lack of a controlled trial for any therapy in which the patient must pay out of their pocket, should be a warning to patients that there simply is no viable proof the device is either safe or effective or cost effective. New advances in science deserve the same level of safety and proof that are required for more traditional medical approaches.

Hello Thomas,

EXCELLENT words of advice and wisdom from Algosdoc. He is RIGHT ON!!!!

Now seek out the best neurologist/spinal doctor (with MD after his/her name) that you can find in your area and make an appointment to seek out the advice of the doctor at the top of your list.
