"Guide to Healing Chronic Pain is not only an absolute must read for anyone suffering from chronic pain, but also for anyone wanting to stay perfectly healthy for the rest of his or her life. In the book, Dr. Karen Kan has set a new precedent of health care for Western physicians to follow in the 21st century and beyond. Taking the reader on a thorough exploration of drug-free, innovative, and alternative medicine modalities such as infrared nanotechnology patches (acupuncture without needles), grounding, energy healing, nutritional therapy, Qi and nervous system balancing, detoxification, and EMF pollution shielding, Dr. Kan synthesizes ancient Eastern healing techniques with cutting-edge science. Dr. Kan's balanced "Spirit-Mind-Body" approach to healing chronic pain is not only revolutionary but is exactly what is needed now in Western medicine. Dr. Karen Kan is indeed a role model for the Next Human physician."
~Jason Lincoln Jeffers, Spiritual Teacher, Author of The Next Human

In her new book, "A Guide to Healing Chronic Pain," she has brought together decades of study and a practical approach to the relief of suffering. If you're in pain, order this book and read it. Her encyclopedic knowledge of the body and medicine is put into practical, usable terms. This book is a work of genius."

Review

"Fabulous! Enlightening! As I read through Dr. Kan's Guide to Healing Chronic Pain - A Holistic Approach, I had so many "Aha's!" pop into my mind. I'm no stranger to chronic pain and I sorely (pun intended) wish I had a comprehensive guide like this one years ago. This book is truly a gift to anyone suffering from pain who doesn't want to take drugs. This is a must-read!"
~Keith Leon,
Bestselling Author of the books: Who Do You Think You Are? Discover the Purpose of Your Life, & The Seven Steps to Successful Relationships

"I cannot recommend this book too strongly to anyone seeking relief from illness and pain! Dr Kan addresses the subject from beginning to end in straight forward easy to understand language, and she offers a number of alternative methods that have been proven effective that may avoid expensive drugs and other interdictions with potentially frightening contraindications. You owe it to yourself to read this book before you need to!"
~Eldon Taylor, Ph.D.
New York Times Best Selling Author of Choices and Illusions

"Not only has Dr. Kan put together a comprehensive, user-friendly resource for a variety of well- proven healing modalities, but she totally honors the journey of illness and pain. She invites you into how to lovingly taking responsibility for your pain, but not from the perspective of guilt and judgment. Rather, she leads you into a beautiful, practical, exploration of what your pain can teach you, and how to remain present and joyful, despite the daily challenges of living with chronic pain. What a gift!"
~Patricia Lee Jones

From the Author

A Personal Note from the Author:

I was disabled with fibromyalgia in my early thirties while juggling career, house-building and a failing marriage. I would wake up at night crying because every bone in my body ached with pain.  I was exhausted, depressed and even suicidal.  Even during my darkest days, however, I had hope that one day, I would heal.  I could not bear the thought of living disabled for the rest of my life. 

Because I knew that taking drugs wasn't the answer, I went on a search to find the best natural therapies for pain.  What I found was amazing!  I've taken some of the most profound transformational self-healing and spiritual approaches available and put them all into one volume.

If you're ready to move up to a whole new level of health and wellness, this book is for you!  The strategies I share are the exact same ones I used to heal myself.  In fact I have since became a national and international adult figure skating (multi) gold medalist. Have hope! Pain relief is possible!

Dr. Karen Kan is a first-generation Chinese immigrant from Hong Kong who came to Canada with her parents at one year of age. Both parents, escaping communist demonstrations in Hong Kong at the time, immigrated with no jobs and no money. The importance of a good education and a hard work ethic was instilled early in all three children.

Dr. Karen (as she likes to be called) did what most first-generation Chinese first-born children do: she became a doctor. She completed her medical studies at the University of Ottawa after first completing a Bachelor's degree in Biochemistry at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. From the first day of medical school, Dr. Karen vowed that she would never become one of those "cold-hearted" doctors she knew about, and made it her mission to study how to help people heal: physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

Fast-forward a decade: The Asian hard work ethic caught up to Dr. Karen and she succumbed to fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, autoimmunity, multiple chemical sensitivities, multiple food allergies, and depression while juggling a new career, housebuilding, and a failing marriage. Using complementary and alternative medicine approaches including nutritional therapies, energy medicine, and spiritual healing, Dr. Karen healed herself and has since won multiple gold medals in adult figure skating.

Her first #1 bestselling book, Guide to Healing Chronic Pain is an accumulation of over a decade of personal and professional experience in healing pain holistically. In 2020, a year of great change for the planet, Dr. Karen released two compilation books that both went to #1 bestsellers: Evolutionary Healer, and Navigating the Clickety-Clack - How to Live a Peace-filled Life In a Seemingly Toxic World. Evolutionary Healer shared the wisdom of 17 ascending visionary healers and Dr. Karen's chapter was about Alternate Self Syndrome. The NTCC book was published with celebrity authors, Jack Canfield & Bob Proctor, from the hit movie, The Secret, and NY Times bestselling author Christy Whitman.

December 10, 2020, saw the release of her signature book, Sensitivity Is Your Superpower, where Dr. Karen shows sensitive souls how to harness their sensitivity gift as a superpower, fulfill their life's purpose, and create a life of joy. With skills such as Divine Muscle Testing, Weather Magic, Perception Kung Fu, Intuitive Impressioning and more, sensitives and non-sensitives alike can tap into innate powers to help them with their intuiting, healing, and manifesting abilities. Launched July 2023, the worldwide release of the movie The INside Effects and its accompanying book shows people how the body heals itself. Dr. Karen is one of the main stars of the movie, along with luminaries Dr. John D. Martini, Lynne McTaggart, Mikki Willis, and JP Sears.

Dr. Karen's weekly podcast, Light Warrior Radio, and her weekly YouTube Spiritual Medicine Digest videos have become popular among spiritually conscious sensitive souls. Her passion is helping sensitive people shine their light so they can help pull the world out of darkness.

5.0 out of 5 stars Most Comprehensive Healing Guide I Have Ever Seen!
Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2017

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Karen Kan's book, Guide to Healing Chronic Pain; a Holistic Approach. The only negative comment I have is that the name was a bit misleading.... I thought that if I weren't in chronic pain, the book wouldn't apply to me. However, this book is for everyone and anyone who wants to get healthy and stay healthy. It is the one of the BEST comprehensive resources for all types of issues and healing modalities. In the 40 years I have been investigating and recommending healing techniques, I thought I had seen them all. In Dr. Kan's "Guide to Healing" I have found even more, very effective approaches, many she developed to heal herself. The most unusual and important point is: "The Guide to Healing" isn't just a book your read with protocols to try. Once you buy it, Dr. Kan makes a commitment to support you and will send you free updated techniques, videos, and radio interviews. Lee Reinert, Ph.D., Behavioral Coach and Counselor.

Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2013

Inspiring, Thought provoking and very educational! Thank you for opening up and putting you're heart into every word! I've had chronic pain all my life, your book and advice is the first time anyone has been able to comment as a very knowable MD and most of all loving individual. I've been inspired to take more control and not settle for "dealing" with pain. I've had difficulty communicating with my family doctor. He is very knowable but he can be narrow minded and tends to use narcotics. With your book and explanations of different parts of the body and the different kinds of pain I've been able to understand and be a lot less panicked. I've had CP since birth and I have most every kind of pain because I was always told that pain was normal and would always exist no matter what. Because of this I over did and ignored pain until it got so bad I could no longer walk any distance. I take narcotics and I dream of the day I can be pain drug free. You've open my eyes and I'm sure many others.

Thank-you Dr Kan for everything!
Sincerely, Chris G

I have followed Karen Kan for almost a year at YouTube and as a lecture and got this book as a gift from my husband.

The Guide to Healing Cronic Pain is a wonderfull and astonishing book, where I Again and Again felle the presence of Karen Kan. So easy to read, creating so many thoughts and very often I have thougt, why didn't I have this information before.

That we all - almost all - need to balance our brain to get healed and the part of using your intuition and specially the charter with the Magnesium Miracles are just some of the numereouse chapters that I know I will read Again and again.This will be a real guidance for me in healing pain, where ever I meet peoples that need my assistance.

Further it will be a Tool for my use of the LifeWave Patches.

Just by it and you will be free of pain.

Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2013

I began to read this book 2 months ago. My original spoken language is not English. So I took a pen and a notebook in order to write down the highlights of this book and to share it with other people (who they don't speak at all English and had the great expectation of me to deliver the most expected written words by Dr. Kan). As I was drifting and wandering on these enlightened pages, I realized, that was going to be a very difficult task for me to accomplish!!! And why was that!!! Because every single word (even the dots) on this book is REMARKABLE- HELPFUL!!!

I won't say anything else, at all, but Dr. Karen thank you so much for your efforts and accomplishments! You are our savior!!! At least for the most important enemy "chronic pain"!!!

Thank you so much Dr. Karen Kan!!!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Health Wisdom to Embrace Once Again
Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2013
Verified Purchase
Dr. Kan's book is a must read for anybody experiencing chronic pain, especially for those told by allopathic medicine practitioners that the only recourse is with drugs and surgery. When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Dr. Kan's shared personal experience on the spiritual side of medicine lifts the veil so that more than a "nail" is noticed, and possibility for healing expands in this realm with tools too often discounted by conventional "wisdom." The reader will be grateful that Dr. Kan recognizes the energetic and spiritual aspects of health and healing. The reader who is seeking chronic pain relief will benefit greatly from this insight and ancient wisdom. This health wisdom lies behind us and before us to embrace once again.

3.0 out of 5 stars Could I find this on the Internet?
Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2013
Verified Purchase
Karen has obviously spent a lot of time writing this book. It is quite long with a lot of common sense suggestions to approaching pain. So, if you are just starting out in trying to manage your pain this may be a good book for you. For those who have been on the chronic pain journey for some time I am not yet convinced how helpful it is. I did manage to find some products that I had not come across before, but my initial impression is that it is simply a guidepost to what worked for her, rather than anything new that cannot be found on the Internet. But if you want a guide, all in one very long book, again this book may be for you. After all, anything that helps reduce our collective pain is worth a read.

I am confused by the Kimdle update that suggested there were significant editorial changes made to the book. It is good that those changes were made available, but what were they? Was what I read before incorrect?

I highly recommend this book to anyone with chronic pain and searching for non-drug alternatives. This book is very user friendly and easy to read. Dr. Karen puts together information that is not widely available and provides the reader with an assortment of comprehensive drug free therapies to learn about. Along with her clinical experience as a Medical Doctor, she also shares with us her own journey to living without pain.

This is a very disappointing book as it seems to be based on trying to get you to buy a product which is supposed to bring about healing.I have researched the patches they recommend and all the reviews describe them as a con as there is no scientific evidence to show they work!!
I believe thatt it is inappropriate for a doctor to be endorsing this kind of nonsense.
