Fascia and Myofascial Syndrome. New Opportunities for Treating Chronic Pain and Migraines

What if we say that years of migraines are related to an old tailbone injury? And that the exhausting noise in the ears — is linked to tension in the neck. Sounds incredible? You have undergone dozens of examinations, taken hundreds of pills, yet the pain in your back, headache, or discomfort in your joints persists. Doctors throw up their hands, diagnoses change, and relief does not come.

This book is a revolutionary look at the nature of chronic pain. The author, a practicing neurologist, suggests viewing the body as a unified system connected by a "web" of connective tissue — fascia. It is their dysfunction, spasms, and inflammation that often become the root cause of pains that do not respond to standard treatment and diagnosis.

Why does it hurt in one place, while you need to treat something entirely different? How are headaches, jaw problems, and shoulder tension related? What is "myofascial syndrome" and "trigger points" and why should they not be ignored? How can tinnitus be caused by muscle tension and what can be done about it? Which treatment method to choose: acupuncture, botulinum toxin, PRP, or cell therapy.
