A testimonial from a former patient
“When Dr. Yass first met me I was writhing in pain, racked by uncontrollable muscle spasms. After years of specialists, injections, drugs and useless therapies, I was literally close to giving up.

Aspercreame — Back pain from “Irritated Nerves”
The latest Aspercreame commercial promotes the idea that the cause of back pain is “irritated nerves”. This is complete insanity with zero scientific backing. It feeds into the cultural created premise that pain is from nerves. This is simply insane. When you are suffering from pain due to a kidney stone, is someone going to […]

A great example of why I am so honored and humbled to be able to do what I do

X-ray for bone on bone- One picture that is worth only one word- FALSE.
Almost on a daily basis I encounter somebody that has been told that their knee or hip is bone on bone strictly as a result of an x-ray that showed no joint space. From this point forward, I want anybody who sees this post to spread this proclamation; THE X-RAY IS NOT ABLE TO SEE […]
Referred or point tender pain: knowing the difference can save you from an UNNECSSARY SURGERY!
When a person has pain at the neck, the lower back or the groin, the medical establishment typically looks to an MRI or x-ray to identify the cause. If a structural variation like a herniated disc, stenosis or x-ray at the hip joint is found, it is immediately identified as the cause of the pain […]
If the medical estabilshment is doing so well in resolving people’s pain, why is pain management so prevalent?
The existing medical establishment method of diagnosing the cause of pain primarily through the use of diagnostic tests such as MRIs and x-rays has been the standard for roughly 40 years. The simple question to ask is how effective is it in properly diagnosing the cause of pain so effective treatment can be provided. Some […]
