The body keeps a record of everything ...Every stress is absorbed and never fully released. Every moment of vigilance is held a little too long. Every experience has quietly taught the nervous system to remain on guard. In some men, over time, that record is written as pain - deep, pelvic, relentless, and invisible to every test that looks for something broken.Yet nothing is broken. Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS) affects as many as one in ten men. Most wait years for a diagnosis. Many are never given one at all. This is a condition of a nervous system shaped by the accumulated weight of stress, experience, and a life lived at a particular pitch of tension. It is not a weakness, or imagination. It is biology - and biology can change.The Silent Mandemic is the true story of one man’s journey through that darkness and his recovery on the other side. Written with men’s health physiotherapist André de Oliveira, it pairs an unflinching personal account of living with CPPS with the evidence-based, multimodal approach that finally worked.Recovery is possible, and it puts you back in control. It asks you to understand your body and your nervous system, and to become an active partner in your own recovery rather than a passive patient. That shift, from being treated to taking part, is where healing begins.Foreword by Tim Parks, author of Teach Us to Sit Still.
