Virtually invisible to all diagnostic tests, adhesions are powerful internal scars that form whenever and wherever the body heals. Adhesions form as the first step in healing from surgery, injury, or infection. Once formed, they can bind our internal structures with a strength estimated at 2,000 pounds per square inch (140 kilograms per square centimeter.) Physical Therapist Belinda Wurn was in debilitating pain and dysfunction in her early 30s due to adhesions that formed in her pelvis after a surgery. Unable to move or breathe without pain, she and her husband Larry, a massage therapist, have devoted their lives to the study of adhesions. What they discovered has astounded physicians around the world. They learned was that adhesions act like glue in the body, squeezing internal structures, or binding them to other structures - organs, muscles and nerves. Because they do not appear on most diagnostic tests, doctors may dismiss patient complaints of pain or dysfunction - while their inner structures are squeezed in powerful adhesive straight-jackets. Once formed, adhesions can stay in the body for a lifetime, and can spread to other structures, causing a host of unusual and confusing symptoms. Surgeons can sometimes remove adhesions, but surgery has been named as the primary cause of adhesions. In this book, the Wurns explain the processes that create adhesions. They examine major problems adhesions cause, and point to vulnerabilities in adhesions that may lead to a cure. With stories from patients and data published in peer-reviewed medical journals, this book opens the door to understanding a pervasive but little-known problem in medicine; it points the way to a return to life for many people. If you or a loved one suffers from chronic pain, infertility, or small bowel obstructions, your doctors have been unable to find the cause of your pain or dysfunction, you need to read this book.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

A prolific writer, Larry Wurn has written, compiled, and produced several books in the arts and medicine. At age 23, while Guest Curator at the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, he produced Mime in Our Time, a picture history of the rise of pantomime Robert Shields, who twice became Las Vegas’ Entertainer of the Year.

He compiled The Rainbow Book, which traced the history of color and mankind’s use of it. First published by Shambala with several Random House distributions, the book was republished in 2023 by Nero (Italy) when large aspects of his original exhibit were reproduced in Milan and Munich in 2023.

After developing an effective non-surgical treatment for pain and female infertility, he and his physical therapist wife authored several books about their groundbreaking all-natural treatment. Drawing on his many years of writing skills, clinical research, physician and researcher consultations, and hands-on practice, Larry has pioneered the Wurn Technique® — a highly successful non-surgical approach to treating infertility.

His compelling recent book, Remarkable Natural Fertility Successes, shares heartfelt stories from women who were failed by traditional medicine but who found success through a therapy designed to

decrease adhesions. Their stories encompass a spectrum of emotions—thrilling, poignant, deeply moving, and profound. They showcase the tangible joy of parenthood, a dream thousands of couples realize through the Wurn Technique's transformative power. Join Larry on a journey through these inspiring tales, where the resilience of the human spirit and the miracle of life take center stage.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tell doctors and people suffering from adhesions to read this book!

Larry Wurn's book explains what adhesions are, the multiple health problems they cause, and how to remove them without surgery, It is exceptionally well written in plain English anyone can understand and everyone should.
I'll bet 90% of the people who really need read this book to regain their health don't have the slightest idea what an Adhesion is.
That's a problem because the title is only going to attract readers who already know the havoc adhesions cause and are desperate to find out how to cure them.
The "Wurn Technique" for removing adhesions with physical therapy - not surgery - really works. I know because 4 years ago Larry Wurn and his team removed a nest of adhesions from my abdomen that caused a complete blockage of my colon. My alternative was to have my colon surgically removed. I have been blessed with excellent health since my one-week physical therapy treatment at the Clear Passage Clinic.
I am going to recommend this book to several doctors and to several people I know who are suffering from adhesions. I think that's how it will become a popular and useful book; by people who know about adhesions telling others who need to know about it to read the book.

This book is so informative on the topic of adhesions concerning small bowel obstructions, endometriosis and more. This is a wealth of information you can’t hardly find in the medical community. It leaves me wanting more but I really should go to school for this to get the kind of knowledge I am wanting. I highly recommend this book for anyone with the aforementioned medical issues especially after surgery. It is also helpful if you are deciding whether or not to have therapy done at Clear Passage. Great resource!

This book is excellent! It explains what adhesions are, why we get them, what kinds of problems they can cause and what can be done to get rid of adhesions without causing new ones to form. Trying to remove adhesions surgically will cause new adhesions to form, and may result in a cycle of repeat surgeries. If you have had surgery or other trauma such as a fall or an auto accident in the past, and now you have pain that your doctor cannot help you with, read this book!

This is just a self-promoting speech printed in huge print. Should be only 20 pages long. Doesn't tell you how to fix adhesions at all, other than go to their clinic! Do not waste your money.

Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2019
After suffering for 29 years with excruciating pain, undergoing every test possible and being told that there was nothing there, that I needed to see a psychiatrist, I found this wonderful book. I now understand what's wrong with me. Thank you so much. I just hope I can find a therapist in my area that knows how to do this.

I appreciated the validation that my back pain and other issues are caused by adhesions. I would have appreciated information on how to get help/treatment.
Especially if it isn’t possible to travel to the Wurns clinic, some tips on finding a good therapist or other options would have been appreciated.

Very well written, I have suffered with Severe Adhesions for decades & had many operations. It’s a very misunderstood illness. I have purchased many books over the years, but this is truly one of the best reads.
