Shauna's TMS/PDP Success Story - Ankylosing Spondylitis, TMJ, Iritis & Alexithymia
Shauna was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), but suspected it was Tension Myoneural Syndrome (TMS). After trying various treatments, including the no-starch diet and antibiotics, she turned to mind-body approaches, reading books on the connection between the mind and body. With the help of a coach and a specialist, she gained insight into the role of childhood trauma and emotional processing in her symptoms, and learned to manage her emotions and reduce her pain. By understanding the connection between her brain, body, and emotions, Shauna has been able to reduce her symptoms and improve her overall well-being.
