Dr. Joseph Weisberg, dean of Touro’s School of Health Sciences, is promoting his book, “3 Minutes to a Pain-Free Life,” on radio and television. The book, which has sold an estimated 20,000 copies and has received four and five-star ratings on the Amazon and Barnes & Noble Web sites, describes Dr. Weisberg’s “3-Minute Maintenance Method” for pain prevention and relief. This method, he says, will (without expensive ergonomic equipment or medication) eliminate conditions that cause pain by utilizing six different 30-second therapeutic movements. In Chapter One, “The Good News About Pain,” Dr. Weisberg writes: “I have a little anecdote I like to tell my patients when they first come to see me: ‘I've got some good news and some bad news for you. First the bad news: You're in pain. Now the good news: You're in pain. Sounds ridiculous? It does to my patients as well, that is until I give them the same information I'm about to give you. By the time you're done reading this chapter, you will begin to look at pain differently and see it for what it really is: a teacher guiding you to a complete and accurate accounting of what problems are occurring in your body.’ ’’
