    Attempt To Define TMS

    Nice to 'see' you too @JanAtheCPA ;-) @Tms_joe I get your point, and for the same reason I am only here on the forum on and off, for the purpose of understanding what kind of struggles people are going through, and providing my support where necessary. That said, this forum is very dear to me...

    Attempt To Define TMS

    Hi guys, I just wanted to share something that might provide some clarification for some of you regarding to what TMS really is. Most of you mention that TMS is emotions that are felt in the body. While this is quite correct, it can help you to understand that there is also a physical process...

    Anyone with Spondylolisthesis

    Hi @Norrin Radd , I know people who have healed from pain that had been blamed from Spondylolisthesis. There is just this one trick. If you want to treat your pain as TMS, you cannot call it 'Spondylolisthesis' anymore, you have to call it TMS. The Spondylolisthesis is just an incidental...

    TMS Therapists Asking for Exorbitant Fees and Not Taking Insurance

    I thought I'd share my thoughts from the perspective of a TMS Coach. My fees are much less than what you've been quoted, but as a coach, I cannot take insurance (sadly, this is out of my control). I make sure that the fee covers my time and any additional costs (since I take the time to prepare...

    Sarno v Schechter v Schubiner v Gordon

    @bobbar, I've been wondering about this subject myself, as a TMS Coach who has based the majority of my techniques on what I learnt from Sarno (and who recovered completely thanks to emotional work, which included journaling, but also meditation and pain reprocessing techniques - although we...

    Day 1 Just sharing

    Hi Blem, Thanks for sharing this. I hope you have kept going at the program, it does work - I managed to help practically all my RSI and sciatica pain through it plus a few other techniques! You said: Typing a lot for work makes it much worse - this is your belief, and if you are following...

    Could my massage be making me more pain-sensitive?

    Sheltered has made a good point. You should only be doing massage if you really enjoy it as a nice treat for you, and NOT to get rid of pain. Unfortunately, the techniques used in massage as well as the words that the masseur sometimes uses serve to reinforce the idea that there is something...

    Pain was lessening... and now it’s stuck

    Hi Lauren, It is common to get stuck the second time you get symptoms, because of the feelings of disappointment that are generated when you get the pain again. I think the best bet for you is to work with the emotions you are generating with regard to pain. You probably feel disappointed...

    TMS healing simplified in 3 steps!

    Hello everyone, Yesterday as I was sending a follow-up email to a client, I realised how TMS healing can really be simplified in 3 steps. I wanted to share this in the forum so it would reach as many people as possible, in the hope that the way forward will be clearer. You CAN heal from TMS...

    Unusual symptom

    Hi Neesh, Sometimes the weirder the symptom, the more likely it is for it to be TMS. Remember that when you sleep, you enter a more relaxed state that deactivates some of the stress response, which is why you never feel this sensation as you sleep. Try working on yourself by changing your...

    I healed

    Amazing, more proof that fibro can really be cured, unlike the predominant view out there!

    I'm confused about stretching....

    Hey John, Well done for curing yourself using the TMS approach, so glad it worked for you! Are you increasing the intensity of your workouts each time, or do you feel that you're getting DOMS after the same workout? And if it's the latter case, how often do you do these workouts? DOMS isn't a...
