Adam's TMS / PDP Success Story - Pelvic & Back Pain
Adam's pelvic and back symptoms began with gym injuries in 2018 and persisted for years despite extensive physical treatment, driven largely by fear of reinjury and not knowing what was wrong. Once he accepted a mind-body explanation and resumed normal movement and sport without fear, his symptoms dropped dramatically — he estimates by 80% — and flares shortened from a week to a day. He still feels occasional pain but now links it to stress and no longer catastrophizes it. His story illustrates how fear and perceived danger can keep pain going long after tissue has healed.
