Cure Back Pain

Tension Myositis Syndrome

Tension Myositis Syndrome is the painful condition named by Dr. John Sarno. Dr Sarno is a Professor of Clinical Rehabilitation Medicine at the NYU School of Medicine and an attending physician at the Rusk Institute of Rehabilitation Medicine/NYU Medical Center. It is ironic that Dr Sarno is a traditionally trained medical doctor, since his teachings are all based in the psychological realm. His ideas draw more on the teachings of Freud, than on any medical text.

What Is Tension Myositis Syndrome?

Dr. Sarno diagnoses a condition he has named TMS (Tension Myositis Syndrome), in many back pain sufferers each year. This condition is a maladaptive defense mechanism of the subconscious mind that has its root in unresolved conflicts and emotional repression. Basically, Dr. Sarno feels that sensitive and repressed emotions are responsible for the epidemic of back pain that exists today.

Knowledge therapy is a term used by Dr. John Sarno to describe his method for curing back pain. It is a “non-treatment treatment”…meaning that no medicine or physical procedure is actually used to combat the symptoms. Instead, the patient must spend the time to learn the true psychological reasons why their back pain will not get better.

Tension Myositis Syndrome is Real.

I have been treated by Dr Sarno and am one of the many patients following his TMS therapy program. Dr. John Sarno is a dynamic physician and personality, who has gone against the grain in his medical philosophy on back pain. His cure rate is unbelievable and the envy of most traditional doctors. I highly recommend his books and his program to all back pain sufferers. If you have an ongoing back pain condition that resists all attempts at treatment, then this man is the expert for you. I hope you have good insurance, since his fees are not cheap. However, there is simply no putting a price on regaining your health...

Additionally, many patients recover completely simply by reading his books and spend no more than a few dollars. The smartest of these people might even cure their pain for free by taking the books out of their local library for no cost.
