    Seasonal Allergies

    Hello. Does anyone else experience vertigo with allergies? I have a feeling it is TMS because I have been taking an antihistamine, using Flonase, and allergy eye drops as well. They have not been helping enough to the point my eyes, ears and throat itch. I did have an outer ear infection...

    I am seeking an expert TMS consultant's advice regarding the muscle nodules in my back.

    I'm a 27-year-old male named Achen. I used to work in finance and stock trading. For the past three years, I've been suffering from chronic shoulder and lower back pain. Last August, after an MRI, the doctor said my cervical lordosis was very bad, which made me highly vigilant. Since then, I've...

    27 years of migraine - I'm finally free! My success story

    Hi, my name is Andrew Paiva. I’m a dad, husband, son, brother, and uncle. I’m also an executive at a private food manufacturing company in Massachusetts. For 27+ years, I lived with migraine. It wasn’t just “headaches”—they were the thief that stole days, memories, and moments I’ll never get...

    Head pain (pressure, sore to touch)

    Hi there I've been experiencing dizziness and nerve sensations all over my head including pressure and tingling. The thing that's bothering me the most is a sick feeling I get to do with the back of my head, very top of neck. It almost feels like a hang over. Different parts on the back of my...

    Ladies! Do your symptoms ever increase before/during your period?

    Since I have been more focused on TMS healing modalities and following along with them since October, my brain has been fighting back as much as it can. It doesn’t scare me as I know what it is. I have been going through quite a few symptoms imperatives/add on symptoms since losing my fear of my...

    Post viral fatigue / Dizziness

    Hi folks, I have posted here previously about my auditory condition and pelvic condition. Thoroughly acknowledged the existence of TMS and worked through a lot of it in 2024 and I was actually in a pretty good place and life was getting better. My symptoms were in control and the severity was...

    Success story: CFS, Hip pain, MRI labral tear, FAI, IBS, Insomnia, eczema, tooth pain & many others

    Hey everyone, First off, like so many others out there, I've had TMS symptoms my entire life. I remember the chronic ear infections and allergies so bad I would have to come home from school, along with a general feeling of insecurity and unease. When I was in my twenties, the digestive/IBS...

    TMS healing: it can work for things you might think it can't

    I'm a bit overdue for an update and sharing of my success story. 6 years ago I was so ill it would take me days to work up the energy to shower. The onset of 50+ mysterious symptoms around this time and the total crashing down of my life and reality would lead me on the hardest and one of the...

    I get concussion symptoms from tiny hits to the head

    Fibromyalgia, chronic Lyme, vertigo, backpain, all gone!

    In July of 2017, I woke up one Saturday morning, rolled over and my back completely seized up, paralyzing my legs and torso. On a pain scale of one to ten, it was a twenty… worse than anything I had ever felt, including childbirth. I was terrified as I tried in vain to move or get up. I called...

    Be authentic with messaging to self

    The pain/fear cycle being what it is- fear of the pain actually reinforces the neural pathways that create the pain- it makes sense that while we work to calm our nervous system, we want to send messages of safety to ourselves. These messages typically sound like, “I’m okay. This is just...

    Back pain and stiffness

    Hi all I’ve had chronic back pain for over 3 years. Over the last 6 - 8 weeks I’ve been in a really bad spell and I really can’t see any way of this improving. The pain flare up started when I went on a flight to a holiday in Cape Verde. The holiday wasn’t enjoyable for me because I was...

    What to do if journaling alone is not enough.

    You’ve done everything right. You’ve made your lists of past stressors, current stressors and tms personality traits. You’ve done expressive writing exercises for 20-30 minutes most days. You self soothe after these sessions through meditation or walking in nature. And you still have symptoms...

    But I don't Want to Journal....

    But I don’t want to journal. Is it the only way to get in touch with emotional drivers of chronic pain? No. No, it’s not. Now, if you aren’t opposed to journaling, I’d certainly start there. It has worked beautifully for many many people including me. However, if the idea of sitting down...
