Heal Back Pain Without Surgery - Embryonic Stem Cell Update!
By MARC WOODARD, Sun January 25, 7:45pm PT
PORTLAND, Jan. 25/MAE Publishing, Poor posture at critical weight bearing areas of the body applied for years can create
serious acute and chronic feet, knee, hip, back (spine), neck pain that requires correction to provide pain relief and healing.
Pain can be alleviated through use of Posture Control Insoles® . Surgery to alleviate chronic pain should be the last resort!
However, if surgery is your only option for spinal cord injuries, you will be interested to read the NEW YORK Press Release,
The world's first study of a treatment based on human embryonic stem cells to increase mobility and sensation a long - awaited
project aimed at spinal cord injury has been approved by the US. Similar human studies for treating diabetes in the next few
years look hopeful.
The weight bearing dynamics connection between healthy posture starting at the feet are very important, because when the feet
are anatomically flawed some other up-line structural pain problem will most likely ensue. For example, like a leaning tree, the
bottom one third of the tree continues to experience stress on itself in order to grow upward competing in a dense forest for the
suns rays. The tree has to absorb a lot of foot pound pressure at the trunk area if its lean is severe. Because the trees trunk
posture is not balanced it is greatly susceptible to structural failure at this point. If the tree could speak, it would tell you it
suffers chronic pain at the trunk and acute-to-chronic pain all the way through the mid branches.
You may create many other pain centers throughout your body, like the tree's trunk through mid-branches. Your feet out of
anatomical posture require correction if in pain, or pain occurs further up the bodies structure where radiating pain becomes
problematic for other key weight bearing areas as the body attempts to self correct alignment. Because the body is all
interconnected by means of spine, neurological, muscular and skeletal structures, distal injuries away from a key pain center
often occur from a primary postural pain site (this distal pain aggravation is referred to as “secondary, lateral, or radiating pain
conditions”) as a direct result of primary non-corrected postural pain, e.g., foot (primary) to knee and back (secondary) pain
problems are common. Correcting posture by using Posture Control Insoles® can significantly alleviate all postural pain
including secondary, lateral or radial pain before acute pain becomes a chronic pain condition.
Elective surgery is not an emergency and fortunately gives you the opportunity to conduct your own research before you sign
on the dotted line. If you suffer from spinal back pain you need to know that the failure rate for these surgical procedures is
very high. Before you take the radical and irreversible step of surgery, you are well advised to study other options for relieving
your pain. According to a Johns Hopkins' 2002 white paper on low back pain, fewer than 5% of people with back pain are good
candidates for surgery. If 95% of the candidates are not good prospects, what are your odds?
A recent article in the Medical Journal Spine stated that as much as 70% of those who underwent back surgery still suffered
from back pain for up to 17 years after the surgery. The good news is that there are options. “Ninety percent of back pain can
be resolved without surgery if both doctors and patients are willing to try other treatments that basically help the back to heal
itself.” says Dr. Richard Deyo, University of Washington, in an interview with CONSUMER HEALTH INTERACTIVE
Magazine. The reason over 90% of back pain can be solved without surgery is simple. Most back pain is muscle pain. Most
muscle pain is caused by muscle over-use. Poor posture forces the back muscles to work harder all day - even in situations
where they should be relatively relaxed.
Dr. Bernard Filner, MD, says, “A significant number of people, including many of his patients, contemplate surgery because
they hurt so badly - but most of the time, by using the Posture Control Insoles® can alleviate the pain and avoid surgery.”
"Posture Control Insoles® do what surgery and custom orthotics cannot do - provide the proper sensory feedback from your
feet to your brain. Your feet play an integral role in maintaining a pain free posture, including proper curvature of the spine.
Modest changes in your posture provide the potential for complete relief of low-back pain. If you are in pain, even if you have
tried custom orthotics without success, please, try Posture Control Insoles® before you try surgery," said Dr. Filner.
When you are on your knees, suffering with back pain, changing posture may seem far fetched. But a variety of therapists can
get you back to functional so you can start the ground up process of correcting your posture. Of course an ounce of prevention
is worth a pound of cure, so starting to care for your posture today can save you unimaginable pain, time and money in the
future. You can see how correct posture starting at the feet are so important to the overall health of the entire postural frame of
the body.
It is for this reason… If your feet, knees, hips, back, spine, neck bother you now, I highly recommend you read further into

your chronic spinal back pain condition, you'll want to read a new press release that has recently been published, "US approves
1st stem cell study for spinal injury," By Malcolm Ritter, AP Science Writer Malcolm Ritter, Ap Science Writer - Fri Jan 23, 7:
22 am ET,
NEW YORK – A U.S. biotech company says it plans to start this summer the world's first study of a treatment based on human
embryonic stem cells — a long-awaited project aimed at spinal cord injury. The company gained federal permission this week to
inject eight to 10 patients with cells derived from embryonic cells, said Dr. Thomas Okarma, president and CEO of Geron Corp.
of Menlo Park, Calif. The patients will be paraplegics, who can use their arms but can't walk. They will receive a single injection
within two weeks of their injury. The study is aimed at testing the safety of the procedure, but doctors will also look for signs of
improvement like return of sensation or movement in the legs, Okarma said.
Whatever its outcome, the study will mark a new chapter in the contentious history of embryonic stem cell research in the
United States — a field where debate spilled out of the laboratory long ago and into national politics. While some overseas
doctors claim to use human embryonic stem cells in their clinics, stem cell experts said they knew of no previous human studies
that use such cells. "It's a milestone and it's a breakthrough for the field" because Geron passed the safety hurdles for getting
federal clearance to launch the study, said Ed Baetge, chief scientific officer of Novocell Inc. His company hopes to begin a
similar human study for treating diabetes in a few years. In addition, said spinal cord injury researcher Dr. Wise Young of
Rutgers University, "a lot of hope of the spinal cord injury community is riding on this trial." Embryonic stem cells can develop
into any cell of the body, and scientists have long hoped to harness them for creating replacement tissues to treat a variety of
diseases. But research has been controversial because embryos must be destroyed to obtain them. Read the full story.
