Summary

Dr. John E. Sarno's Healing Back Pain is a New York Times best seller that has helped over 500,000 readers. Continuing the research since his ground-breaking book, the renowned physician now presents his most complete work yet on the vital connection between mental and bodily health....

Musculoskeletal pain disorders have reached epidemic proportions in the United States, with most doctors failing to recognize their underlying cause. In this acclaimed volume, Dr. Sarno reveals how many painful conditions - including most neck and back pain, migraine, repetitive stress injuries, whiplash, and tendonitises - are rooted in repressed emotions... and shows how they can be successfully treated without drugs, physical measures, or surgery. His innovative program has already produced gratifying results for thousands of patients. The Mindbody Prescription is your invaluable key to a healthy and pain-free life.

This man has saved so many lives

The original TMS doctor. A trailblazer and a genius, he was one of the first to recognise and treat mindbody disorders with great success.

All his books are valuable and this one no less. The neuroscience has moved on since this was written and some of his explanations for pain (oxygen deprivation) have been replaced with new knowledge of the neuroscience, but the principles are the same.

I wish there was more of a ‘what to do’ instruction and guide in this book, but it’s difficult to do that as everyone’s path is different.

Knowing and believing (the belief is key) that you have TMS and not a structural medical condition is the starting point, the next is to deal with fear - I fundamentally think that fear and anxiety is what prevents healing, these are often well established patterns of thinking that were formed in childhood.

This book will help you on your way to health and is an essential part of your mind-body toolkit.

Superb incite into the mind connection to body

Having had chronic pain for six months, I'd given up thinking I could heal it. After the first read of this book the pain had reduce by 75%. I'm now seeing a PTSD therapist to work through my issues. Well worth reading.

Health lessons every human needs to hear to heal from within!

I have felt at times I don’t have any control over pain, but Sarno's recollection of anecdotes and techniques helped me to play a more active role in my healing journey. I found this audiobook extremely empowering and easy to listen to.

Dr Sarno is a genius and an angel

Dr Sarno is a genius and an angel. I've fully absorbed this TMS theory and I'm now working on the homework to get rid of my various chronic pain symptoms. Very very exciting!

This is a life saver.

I will read this book again. I hope Dr Sarno’s method will be adopted by the mainstream medicine one day.

Great insight

I purchased Mindbody Prescription after listening to Healing Back Pain by Dr John Sarno. I found the subject fascinating and very plausible. As a life coach I will definitely be considering TMS when my clients complain of certain symptoms. I will look into what I can do to within the coaching session to introduce the theory of TMS as long as other issues have been ruled out.
