What treatment approach does Dr. John Sarno recommend to get rid of Tension Myositis Syndrome (TMS) pain?

Dr. John Sarno’s work fundamentally changed how chronic pain is understood and treated.

Rather than viewing persistent pain as the result of ongoing physical damage, Dr. Sarno proposed that many chronic pain conditions - particularly those without clear structural pathology - are the result of mind-body processes he termed Tension Myositis Syndrome (TMS).

If you have been living with chronic pain despite normal scans, failed treatments, or ever-changing diagnoses, Dr. Sarno’s approach offers a radically different path. It does not focus on fixing your body.
