Healing Back Pain : The Mind-Body Connection by John E. Sarno (1991, Trade Paperback)

Good informative book for those who suffer from backaches.

Good book if you have back problems which may be due to stress. I read a long article by him years ago, so now happy to have found Dr. Sarno's book.

Psychobabble

I'm all for holistic medicine like NUCCA chiropractic and the like, but this is 100% grade D junk. There's big pharma and surgery at one end of the spectrum and then there's this at the kook end of mind control and self healing. If you're into pagan meditation, secular humanism, or even witchcraft; this might be for you. If your looking for real healing, I'd look elsewhere. Read full review

Read this if you have back pain

I bought this recently for a friend, but had read it for the first time thirty years ago, when I had back pain. Because of this book, I have been pain-free. You need to open your mind to believe how strong the mind-body connection is and understand that it's not just stress that causes the pain, but how you deal with it.Read full review

Life changing information

Very profound information that has been proved in my case. This book, among with Dr. Scott Brady's book Pain Free for Life, got me journaling out my worries and stresses and truly helped me release my muscle pain. My other illness is much easier to handle mentally and emotionally with the practical, usable information in this book.Read full review

Power of the mind

This book was recommended to me by my dads friend who is an oral surgeon, he actually talked to Sarno. The book is a guide to a different way of dealing with some of the pains that pop up without any real incident, that maybe some of the things that occur could possibly be do to stress and our work environment. I have found that it has helped me and that I can relate to some of the writings in this book. I am very active and am willing to open my mind to something that may help with my health. At less than $10 dollars its worth a shot to help out.Read full review

Body, Mind and Soul work together to heal.

If you take this book seriously, it will heal your pain. Reread if necessary. I am on my 11th page of journaling. It works, though I still have a little pain which I am still working on by journaling. Look at the YouTube videos.Read full review
