I am 31, I have had joint issues sine I was 12. For the past 12 years I have been dealing with debilitating IBS-D, where I was going 15 times a day with liquid diarrhea. I also had eczema so bad that my hands would be filled with cuts, oozing puss and I could barely bend them or use them, I have had a myriad of other problems as well. I have tried aliopathic and naturopathic, and holistic medicine. I tried all sorts of diets, vegetarian, fruititarian, mostly meat diets, cooked veggies, and everything under the sun. This book has made me feel better than I have since I was 7-8 years old, honestly even better, when I was little I didn't have this much energy. My eczema is fading, my eyesight is improving, my hair is not falling out as fast, my IBS is improving each day, my memory is better and this is only the beginning of the fourth week since I read the book. I have read Dr. Sarno's older book, "Healing Back Pain The Mind-Body Connection" and I have written a review for it that applies to this book as well. However the I can compare the old book to swinging a broad sword, its easy to swing and cuts the big easy stuff. However I realized I have much more deep rooted repressed emotions. This book is a scalpel. getting deep inside and surgically getting the hard to find stuff. It is truly helping me pain disappear and deal with hidden emotional baggage. Here is my review of the first Sarno book I read: I had no idea how much repressed emotions I have had, it is scary. I coupled the info from this book with my faith which has made it even more powerful. I was and am able to put all these burdensome emotions on Christ. I was saved by the grace of God 5 years ago, and that helped me get through the toughest times health wise, But now that so much repressed anger, worry, anxiety, low self-esteem, and narcissism have come to light, I asked God for forgiveness and the guilt has melted away, along with the pain in my body. This book has helped my Mother, brother and his wife. I bought four copies to give to people. I hope this helps you!Read full review

This is a must read & reread~the crowning glory of Dr Sarno's Mindbody Prescription & Healing Backpain. After three years of unbearable pain I found these healing books on line & was on my road to recovering in a couple of weeks. If you have tried everything else....open your mind & receive this wonderful knowledge & heal for good. I suggest reading them in order....this one last. God bless this caring, intelligent man Dr Sarno for all of his hard work & insight. It saved my life. Come with an open mind & go into it slowly. Very Highly Recommended!
I bought the book at the recommendation of a psychotherapist. I like it's candor and simplicity - easy for a lay person. I haven't determined whether Sarno coined the term "tension myositis syndrome", but it annoyed me to read yet another label, like fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue syndrome. Much of the information I already knew. However it was good to read the case studies to confirm how mind works to protect the ego and how the body works to give voice to the mind. I highly recommend the book to anyone who is ready to shift from the traditional medical approach to health.
Dr. Sarno writes Excellent Books about solutions to body pain and using knowledge and awareness to help heal. I highly recommend this book and all of Dr. Sarno's books for healing pain.
