My TMS Story

I had a back injury in 1998 playing football and continued playing years after it until I had to retire in my early twenties as a result of it. I have been in constant pain now more than twenty six years and it has only got worse. Since retiring I have been unemployable due to the amount of pain and debilitation. I have literally had hundreds of different treatments so it would be pointless listing them here.

It was more than a decade ago that I discovered Sarnos work and I resonated with it deeply. I knew that I did not have any significant structural problem and was suffering from chronic pain from reading the book the brain that changes itself. Especially since from my original injury the pain had moved. What surprised me was how much I saw of myself in Sarnos books. I put myself in to doing the work however after a significant amount of time I got no better so I spent around a year or more with a TMS therapist. That also did not work.

Since then I have done so many treatments and have done so much mind body therapy to rewire my brain and be pain free however nothing has worked. It has cost me nearly everything and I am not just talking about money not to mention my quality of life. The pain has only got worse and it is constant and at a very high level to the point where there is not much that I can physically do.

Some time ago I decided that maybe I have missed something And go back to tmswiki and maybe approach it from a slightly different angle and hope it helps.


Many thanks
