My mentor in this area is John Sarno, MD a true pioneer. He was my inspiration as a medical student at NYU twenty five years ago. Sarno is a unique thinker who has written four popular books linking chronic back pain to emotional tension. Sarno's diagnosis of TMS (tension myositis syndrome) has led me to develop a clinical program, written materials, a workbook, a web site, an audio program and help develop, a non-profit Research Foundation under whose auspices I did research for several years about this approach. Regardless of your problem, I believe that having a doctor who understands the mind-body link is a big plus.
