My how time passes. This article is already 7 years old, and 100% in line with our work. It quotes Tor Wager of the Boulder Pain Study, it quotes Alan Gordon and mentions PRT being trial-tested, talks about the power of the placebo effect, and even briefly mentions Dr Sarno as a pioneer...

My story with tms begins many years ago, I've had migraines since my teenage years, then I had irritable bowl syndrome during my late twenties and it capitulated with sciatica pain in my early thirties. My sciatica pain began two years ago, while I was doing crossfit, and at that time I...

Hello All, Please see below, the recent interview with David Schechter on Between the lines... Regards, Mike

Hi everyone, I'm relatively new to the TMS wiki and have really only posted in the forum for the Structured Educational Program (on day 11). But, I'm so so happy because today I had an appointment with the one and only Dr. Schechter! I'm so lucky to live so close to Los Angeles and to have been...

I found this very therapeutic and helpful through my extinction burst in the last week. Have been having pains and spasms of various degrees of strength and locations throughout the body - and this lowered it down a notch. Take care you all!

Hi Everyone, One of the main inspirations for our own Structured Educational Program was the Mindbody Workbook written by David Schechter, MD. Dr. Schechter created the workbook to use with his own patients and then released it to the world for everyone to use. It was unique in that it was the...

Today is about simplifying my life. I can't really simplify my life anymore than I have, so I am choosing instead to reprioritize! Before I begin studying each day I do my TMS work and journaling. I view it as important self care that sets the tone for the rest of my day! I also make time to...

Dr Schechter was interviewed on the Vinnie Tortorich podcast. He is a Beverly Hills personal trainer to the stars and has a really big listenership(half a million downloads per Month on iTunes alone). He is really passionate* about health and into nutrition...

I wanted to give you a link to a podcast that Dr. David Schechter did with the DrunkenTaoist in which he discussed the Mind-Body Connection. Here's a direct link to the audio. I'd skip the first 11 minutes because Dr. Schechter doesn't come on until 11:02. Also, the interviewer does swear and...

Not sure if this has ever been posted, but I just listened to this, and really enjoyed it.

Originally posted: December 24, 2014 Here's an interesting piece someone sent me: ATHENS, Ohio, Dec. 24 (UPI) — New research suggests muscles respond to simple thoughts of exercise; simply imagining exercise can trick the muscles into delaying atrophy and even getting stronger. It’s further...

Originally posted: December 17, 2014 I regularly deal with skepticism about the diagnosis of TMS. I deal with worry that something else is wrong. I deal with a reluctance to give up a structural model for chronic pain. Today, with one patient, I could tell with the first sentence that doubt...

Originally posted: November 16, 2014 I was honored to receive a letter, hand written from Dr. Sarno yesterday. Dr. Sarno was my mentor as a medical student and I'm proud to call John Sarno a colleague today. His work on TMS is seminal to our understanding of mind-body disorders and pain. His...

While moderating the TMS Wiki chat group today (Dec. 27, 2014), a drop-in named Deb made me aware of a new TMS therapy book just published by Dr. David Schechter entitled Think Away Your Pain (November 2014)...

These two videos cover virtually the same TMS material with Dr. Schechter. Back Pain Relief – Mind Body Approach Dr. David Schechter tells his TMS story Similar: Chronic Back Pain Some of his patients tell of their TMS healing success stories on other videos in the the TMS Mind Body...

This short video sums up Dr. Sarno's TMS philosophy that physical pain may very well be caused by repressed emotions and/or our personality. Dr. Schechter asked Dr. Arthur Smith, of the Sullivan Medical Institute, to speak about Mindbody healing. His video is very short but succinct about...

Another of Dr. Schechter's patients, a young man, tells how reading Dr. Sarno's Healing Back Pain started him on the road to recovering from nearly four years of back pain. He then took part in Dr. Schechter's program and says he began healing right away. He says he is almost totally free of...
