The Better Bladder Book is a comprehensive look at the treatment of bladder disease in general and Interstitial Cystitis and Chronic Pelvic Pain in particular. The author Wendy L. Cohen is a registered nurse and experienced in homeopathic healing. She begins the book with the traditional approaches to diagnosing and treating Chronic Pelvic Pain. She then goes on in the majority of the book to discuss a path to healing. This is the most important and useful part of the book. Bladder disease and Chronic Pelvic Pain. Even when patients go down the normal path treatment healing is seldom quick or complete. Cohen's apporact is a holistic path to developing a good environment for good bladder health. This makes the book useful to both sufferers of Interstitial Cystitis and Chronic Pelvic Pain and those who suffer with chronic pelvic pain in general. I am not a physician or a trained medical person, but from the point of view of a layman, the book looks to be very helpful for those suffering from this disease.… (plus d'informations)

I found this book to be very informative and helpful in giving choices of treatments to people suffering from IC. CPP, and PBS. The author does a great job of informing readers of traditional medical treatments, and also steps you can take on your own to help cope with these disorders. She does not make those who chose to use medications feel like they are wrong, or vice versa for those who chose to try to manage it without drugs. I liked how she gave information on foods to eat or avoid, and how these affect the condition. Overall I thought it was a very informative book that is a great addition to a doctor's care. It is always best to be well informed on any medical condition you may have, and this book does so without weighing the reader down with too much medical jargon.… (plus d'informations)

Even though this book does subscribe to a certain mindset when it comes to treatment, it doesn't feel overly preachy which is certainly a plus.

It has made me more aware of what I'm eating and drinking, although I do continue to eat and drink many of the foods which she warns against. I do not have the same particular problem as her so for me to just be aware of the information and relate it to my own issues has made this book a valuable resource.

I certainly wouldn't hesitate to recommend this to people with food allergies and/or bladder issues along with those interested in general health ailments and their possible causations.… (plus d'informations)

"The Better Bladder Book" is a comprehensive look at diseases of the bladder, their symptoms, treatment options and diet choices.

"The Better Bladder Book" recommends individuals see their doctor for a diagnosis, but does cover a plethora of causes for pelvic pain and herbal remedies. I would recommend the book for anyone with bladder questions.… (plus d'informations)
