About Us
Back-Pain-Therapy.com was founded in May 2009 by Richard D. Farley, who has dealt with both upper and lower chronic back pain for more than 35 years. Its mission is to provide, to people with back pain, valuable information that will improve their lives.
We believe results matter, and the only resources and therapies specifically recommended at Back-Pain-Therapy.com will be those that have proven helpful to our founder.
Like many who have suffered with a chronic health problem, Mr. Farley has spent a great deal of his time and energy searching for solutions. After becoming painfully aware of all the spin and hyperbole (hype) from various interests that appeared to be only out to make money from desperate, suffering people, he decided to found Back-Pain-Therapy.com on the principle that it would not recommend anything with which he did not have a personal and positive experience.
In an era of high-pressure sales pitches, and hype, Back-Pain-Therapy.com is a Web site that hopes to make it easier for everyone to separate some of the spin from the facts when it comes to back pain therapy — because the better informed you are, the more likely you are to find solution(s) for your individual condition.
While recognizing everyone’s condition and experience are unique, and that many therapies he hasn’t tried or that did not work for him may work very well for others, Mr. Farley has decided other resources and therapies may be represented in the future, but we will not specifically recommend them unless Mr. Farley says he’s tried it and that it worked for him; and to determine whether or not we recommend any therapy or product, simply look for the phrase "Back-Pain-Therapy.com recommends" at the end of our comments on that particular therapy or product.
Please be aware that Back-Pain-Therapy.com is for informational purposes only. All content should be construed as representing a non-medical opinion. Please be sure you have read and fully understand our Terms of Service.
We hope to be adding a lot more information in the coming months that should prove valuable to back pain sufferers, so if you can’t find what you’re looking for today, please consider visiting us again sometime soon.
About Our Founder
In addition to being a publisher, Mr. Farley is a writer and a programmer who is passionate about the world around him and always strives, by creating quality information and entertainment products, to leave his clients with a better experience than expected.
Among various other projects, he is currently working on an e-book about his nearly life-long experience with chronic back pain — or depending on how it goes, he says it or a longer version also may someday become an actual book. In either case, the e-book will be free and is expected to include some of his personal experience and philosophy as well as various exercises, supplements and resources he has found helpful over the years. If you would like to be alerted when the e-book (or book) becomes available, please fill out the submission form below:
