Healing Back Pain - Book

Don't be put off by its title, although back pain is a very common symptom this book covers the many conditions and manifestations of TMS.

Reading Dr Sarno's book - Healing Back Pain was a critical turning point in my life and came recommended to me at a very desperate time as if by divine intervention. Many TMS sufferers report the same thing after reading this, as I did, I saw myself on every page of that book and had so many lightbulb moments I stopped highlighting page after page eventually.

This book delves into the root causes of the chronic pain epidemic, uncovered by Dr Sarno in the 70s through treating thousands of patients himself and discovering new previously unexplained patterns in his patient's symptoms, behaviour, personality and history. It includes many patient stories, detailed explanations of what the brain and the body are doing when TMS shows up in your life, and a brief guide as to how to resolve it.

It's INSANE just how many people have said the same happened to them on their healing journey, this book has been and continues to be such a turning point for so many people. Karden over at CFS School said the same thing in our interview!

The book speaks for itself, a great place to start when learning about TMS and mind-body medicine. Take a look at the Amazon reviews, they're absolutely mind-blowing!
