OK for the layman. Not applicable to my needs. Needs MD's examination and evaluation for specific patient.

Where is the practical information?

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 15 augustus 2020

Geverifieerde aankoop

Did I miss something? I read the entire thing it was quite excited to get to the part that told me how I could start to begin a regimen to reduce my back pain. That never happened. This really only seemed like a big commercial for signing up with some medical clinic in New York. I imagine that the author is very well respected and has good intentions, but I literally got nothing from this. So disappointed.

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 15 maart 2018

Geverifieerde aankoop

My opinion is not fully formed on this book as yet, but I can say there are 200 pages on the what and why and less than 10 vague pages on the how.
The “program” as Sarno calls it could have been explained better.

I do like the idea of moving more in spite of discomfort, seeking psychotherapy, and continuing with PT and massage for the benefits they can provide to both weakening and tensing muscles. But nerve pain can bring me to my knees. So telling my brain to tell my nerve compression to shut up is hard to comprehend.

Structural issues—like worsening scoliosis or spinal stenosis—do not have a relationship to deeply rooted or unresolved emotional issues. So that aspect of the book is a lot of mumbo jumbo to me. Now coping with my anger over having a crap back. That’s a goal I can understand.

Back pain is in your head, true but not quite.

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 13 december 2020

Geverifieerde aankoop

A friend recommended this book from years before because I suffer back spasms and muscle tightness brought on by anxiety or emotional upset. The premise of the book is observational, not scientific, and I believe the author is right to an extent. He says that virtually ALL back pain is brought on my our emotions, which obviously is not true. He claims that people sometimes were cured of their back pain just by reading his book and learning of the association with emotions. I say, not likely, but ok it is possible. In my case, it made me feel better that his observations bore out my own diagnosis. Other than that, he overstates his case.

Dismissing back pain

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 15 juli 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

The premise of the book is that most back psin is in one’s own mind and that you can overcome the discomfort by putting it out of your head — the Author keeps telling the reader that it is an easy fix but it’s not clear how to achieve the goal as the definitive steps to do so are lacking in the text of the book.

Some good some bad

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 17 juni 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

For some of the concepts detailed in this book I think that conventional thinking has changed. But there is also some good information in this. From personal experience I know the stress can really affect my back pain.

Good message IF you have a diagnosis he treats and IF you are receptive to treatment, otherwise he'd not see you in person.

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 8 augustus 2014

Geverifieerde aankoop

Dr.. Sarno's book was something Amazon kept recommending to me. I have been diagnosed with several structural back issues, ALL except for the herniations, were not addressed in this book in any detail. In fact, he's dismissive saying that while they cause problems in almost everyone HE has never seen a patient that has problems from spondylolisthesis or facet joint arthritis. He also refuses to treat patients with those diagnoses as they are not receptive to his techniques. It is hard to believe his nearly 100% success rate when his patients are cherry picked. Furthermore, he finds vague studies to support his theories by stating people cure cancer and chickenpox (and pretty much everything) just by letting go of repressed anger.

I *do* wholeheartedly agree as a health care professional and yoga practitioner that the mind-body connection is a STRONG thing. I know most people when stressed or having repressed emotions Western society feels are "bad" (anger, fear, sadness, etc.), that tension can manifest itself in your body differently and sometimes painfully. Working through difficult emotions or allowing them will help most people as if you don't in my experience it makes any pain worse. For explaining that to the masses I think he deserves two stars.

I also didn't find him that defensive in his explanations except for a chapter or two.

Fine to try for chronic pain but not for acute

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 21 januari 2018

Geverifieerde aankoop

I rarely write negative reviews but wanted to warn those who have an acute pain to not push it and just pretend that they are fine resuming all activities right away. I followed his advice and thought it was maybe just in my head but I did more damage. I should have given myself a few days with ice and even a few weeks of rest rather than pushing it. I later went back to the book and saw a very small part where he recommends tending to an acute pain, so I must have overlooked it but would have preferred he emphasis the differences more fully.

Finally, his book contains some good points but the research around neuroplasticity has come far since he wrote this book decades ago so you may want to check out other options like that of Dr. Hanscom with Back In Control. I haven't read his book but his website goes through a plan, similar to that of Sarno's, except it appears to connect the activities to the power of the brain to help reset the nervous system.

Feldenkrais is another modality that works with the brain and nervous system to create more ideal ways of moving your body (similar in some ways to the Alexander Technique.)

Lacks actionable advice

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 1 september 2016

Geverifieerde aankoop

As with a lot of these self help books, I thought there was a too much attention given to convincing you his argument is valid. Too many anecdotes illustrating the evidence over and over. Evidence is valuable, to a point. Where the book fails is in actually giving you a roadmap to overcome your pain. Calling the book a "prescription" for pain is not accurate, it's really more background reading about the pain.
