On this wonderfully cold and wet winter’s day I decided to pick up an old favourite book; John E Sarno’s ‘Healing Back Pain.’ This amazing physician, professor of Rehabilitation Medicine of New York University School of Medicine, stood against the medical world and published a series of papers and books on a radical new way of diagnosing and curing chronic pain in the 80’s and is still helping people today. His book ‘Healing Back Pain,’ is an amazing read and I recommend it highly to anyone who has chronic back, shoulder, neck or knee pain. I think in terms of understanding the mind body connection he was well ahead of his time. His book in combination with Feldenkrais really helped me to overcome debilitating chronic back pain. If you want to discuss his book, please feel free to call me, as I am a strong advocate of it.
