    Struggling with tension headaches and neck pain

    I found TMS literature almost 10 years ago when I turned 30. Started with Dr Sarnos Healing Back Pain, and have read many others(SteveO,Gordon,etc). It's been a while since I've had pain that has been consuming. Perhaps around 6 weeks ago I started getting tension headaches and neck pain. I had...

    Well I am in a pickle... Back in February I pulled what I thought was a muscle in my neck from exercising... Within days I was in horrendous pain, couldn't move my neck and was getting nerve pain shooting down my arm... They suspected a herniated disc, since then the disc has healed but my...

    It's neck and shoulder

    ...on one side for six weeks and it's hard to let go of it possibly being structural or -- mostly -- caused by my having taken up running. Because I'm large-busted, I'm always worried about bras and shoulder and back pain caused by my chest size. I do seem to have a pretty good support solution...

    Para-spinal muscle spasm, military neck

    I have an issue, and I'm wondering if I should be pursuing it medically. As I've mentioned in other posts, I have MECFS. My neck is giving me profound issues as far as weakness and lack of endurance. I don't do any exercises to specifically target the muscles of my neck as far as...

    I broke my neck years ago. But now i wonder…

    Hello. I broke my neck (c1, c5, c6 cervical vertebrae) when i was 22 years old. I wore a surgically attached halo brace for 6 months and was mostly ok for the next few years until more severe chronic pain in my neck and back started in my late 20s and early 30s. I was warned of this at the time...

    Acceptance & Neck Spasm, Stammer

    I keep on having doubts regarding TMS. I keep on vacillating between between physical and TMS. I am not sure if I am on the right way. But I feel acceptance seems to be the key. Acceptance needs to be seen in different light rather than failure or giving up. The whole series of decade of neck...

    Misaligned jaw - can't stop the fear!
