"Why We Hurt is an excellent, well-organized and understandable complete guide to a science-based natural approach to chronic pain.  It inspires people not to just seek pain relief, but to heal their pain.  It is not only an excellent self-help book for anyone who suffers from chronic pain, but a primary reference guide for the health care professional for understanding and treating the neurological and metabolic causes of chronic pain.  Why We Hurt certainly has my heartiest recommendation."

--W. Karl Parker BA DC FICC FACC, President, Parker Resource Institute & Karl Parker Seminars, Past President, Parker Chiropractic Resource Foundation & Parker Chiropractic College

"Dr. Fors' book, Why We Hurt is the most detailed, thoroughly peer-reviewed and evidenced-based guide for understanding the biochemical, physical and spiritual roles in sickness and in health available to date. It is written for both the practitioner and the 'walking wounded,' providing information addressing the cause and treatment of chronic pain in its many forms. I whole-heartedly recommend it!"

--Thomas F. Bergmann, D.C., F.I.C.C., Professor, Northwestern Health Sciences University, Co-author, Chiropractic Technique

"Finally! A holistic, comprehensive book that not only understands pain but shows you what to do to alleviate it.  Dr. Fors sets out a thorough program--physical, nutritional and spiritual--that guides the reader through the layers of healing.  Why We Hurt is a godsend to all of us who have suffered with chronic pain. This book should be on the shelf of every massage therapist in the country and in the hands of all their clients."
