About this title: HEALING BACK PAIN offers relief from chronic back pain without drugs, surgery, or even exercise. Recognizing the connection between the mind and the body, Dr. John Sarno explains how back pain can be the end result of long-term emotional pain, particularly Tension Myositis Syndrome, better known as TMS. According to Dr. Sarno, TMS is the predominant cause of back and shoulder pain in people of all ages.

"The idea that deeply repressed anger can cause physical tension, resulting in not only back pain but digestive and sinus problems and headaches....yes, I can get behind that. However, I agree with the other reviewers here who have said the book is too vague and repetitive. OK...Doc, so yes, I am tense, stressed out, and anxious and my back hurts like H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks, but what specifically am I supposed to do about it? That said, it is nice to see a medical professional actually doing research into the mind-body connection. This is an area that needs to be explored and de-stigmatized.
However again...my back still freakin' hurts! I guess I'll just have to reach for the ibuprofen again and keep doing my stretches."
"people have been trying to get me to read this book for years and i dismissed it as hocus pocus. but i have to say, his arguments resonated with me and seemed to have reasonable medical support. i hope it helps me"
"My father-in-law gave me this book and I wasn't sure what to think about it at first. But, I've tried what Dr. Sarno suggests and it really seems to help. It's an interesting concept that is worth a read if you have recurring back pain yourself."
