About this listen

Do you have back, neck, or shoulder pain that keeps recurring or won't go away? Do you have to "baby" your back? Does back pain keep you from living a full life? If so, you may be suffering from TMS - (Tension Myositis Syndrome) - and you don't have to take it anymore!

Dr. John E. Sarno, author of the revolutionary book Mind Over Back Pain, is a medical pioneer whose program has helped patients overcome their back conditions- without drugs or dangerous surgery. Now, using his latest research into TMS, Dr. Sarno goes one step further. After identifying stress and other psychological factors in back pain, he demonstrates how many of his patients have then gone on to heal themselves without exercise or other physical therapy.

Discover why self-motivated and successful people are prone to TMS, how anxiety and repressed anger trigger muscle spasms, how people "train themselves" to experience back pain, and how you may get relief from back pain within two to six weeks by recognizing TMS and its causes.

The power to heal ourselves with a little education on the impact of suppressed negative emotions!

As someone who has worked in the medical imaging industry for over 30 yrs trying to find structural causes of pain and watching my colleagues performing interventional procedures to alleviate pain, I totally believe this story. Think of the billions of dollars that could be saved from healthcare costs if these techniques became mainstream.

A different perspective on pain

This is a must read for chronic pain or anxiety. Although Doctor Sarno is no longer with us I am very grateful that others have continued his work.

Worth every penny. It fixed me.

It helped me overcome my TMS after 2 years of scans, specialists, confusion and being told to 'learn to live with the pain'.
