Dr Christensen's TMS /PDP Success Story - Back Pain, Sciatica, Long COVID
Dr. Kurt Christensen, a pediatric dentist, was diagnosed with chronic back pain 17 years ago and tried various treatments before discovering that his symptoms were likely caused by TMS (Tension Myoneural Syndrome) after reading Dr. John Sarno's book. He experienced significant improvement in his symptoms within a month and a half, and later realized that other conditions, including prostatitis and long COVID, were also TMS responses triggered by perceived danger. His experience highlights the importance of understanding the mind-body connection and the role of emotions in chronic symptoms, and he emphasizes the value of patience and self-compassion in the recovery process. He has successfully treated TMS symptoms in children using the ABC model, which stands for Awareness, Belief, and Change.
