This is my story of how I got out of 6+ years of chronic back pain. I'll share some important insights into how you can do the same. To get the rest of the movie series, just sign up here: lifeafterpain.c...

I flew hang gliders for 25 years and managed (luckily) to avoid any real serious injuries. There were certainly a few close calls. Of course I listened to your story with great interest. I did have chronic issues with back spasms along the way, but eventually (again, by luck) stumbled into Bonnie Pruden's book (years ago) that showed how to treat the trigger point sources- which amazingly allowed me to resolve my back issues in a few days where 6 months of conventional physical therapy had failed. So I'm a big believer in this approach.

Your education makes so much sense, because I have also experienced the same thing, but I have noticed when I dwell into the thoughts of my upper back pain, it comes back again. Thank you for your wise techniques.

Thank you, Jonathan. I struggle with chronic pain stemming from post polio syndrome. Like you with your patients, I find I am less aware of my pain while working with my students or running a music rehearsal.

Thank you!! I never recuperate from automobile injuries and have been trying to heal myself mentally with my optimistic approach on life. I continue to fight and work everyday but I notice that every couple weeks my body ends up in bed rest 3-5 days straight. My nerves seem to go haywire and my muscles are inflamed and quite constricted. I have tried so many different treatments the past year: 6 months of acupuncture, physical therapy (took about 10 months before I could exercise without ending up on the hospital), scalar therapy, yoga, swimming, home electrical nerve stimulator, chiropractor etc. Although my mobility now has come quite a long way, I struggle with these bouts of immense pain that seemingly appear every couple weeks where it is past my tolerance level and deters me from physical activities. Your point on triggers has opened my eyes as I do notice that certain environments bring on back pain immediately such as driving in the car. I would love to learn about the techniques you discovered on your journey enabling you to disassociate these triggers with the pain.

Very interesting account of chronic pain following a dreadful injury. I have suffered from muscular low back pain, on and off, for around 30 years, though nothing as serious as you have experienced. I also discovered John Sarno's book on back pain a few years ago and it completely changed the way I thought about and managed the pain. I believe my pain is largely stress-related, which tips me into holding my body in a tense way, which tips me into developing a lot of trigger points, which ratchets up the pain and stress. It's a really lousy vicious cycle. Sarno helped me to break the stress-muscle tension link and everything got much better - but not completely. I am new to the TP theory but, instinctively, it sounds right. I am a reg. nurse. Why on earth is this not being taught to health professionals?

Hi Jonathon, I have been disabled with chronic pain for around 15 years. Initially I was diagnosed with bilateral hip dysplasia and had both hips replaced. Unfortunately although this did help, the pain persists and I still have days when I cannot even get out of bed. Of course I now suffer with depression as well! My GP mutters vague comments about fibromyalgia and has basically said "get used to it, we can't help". My CPN has said that my weight is affecting the pain but I will NOT lose weight while on my pain meds, in fact she happily asserts that my weight will increase by at least half a stone every year unless I basically starve myself. As a result of all this (and the feeling that my life is effectively over unless I do something drastic), I am desperately searching for alternatives. I am looking forward to following your techniques and believe me, you and the entire world will hear all about it if it works :-). Thank you for your input - and keep your fingers crossed for me!

It's sad to see so many people in pain. From the kuttners to the ozaniches to the criros.
