Dr. Sarno's concept of Tension Myositis Syndrome (TMS) suggests that unresolved stress, inner conflict, and unacknowledged worry can amplify or even create physical symptoms. Take 60 seconds the next time pain arises to reflect on what might be bothering you beneath the surface. You may be surprised by what you find.For the full conversation, listen to Ep. 229 – New Approach to Chronic Pain: Psychological vs. Physical Treatments on The Smartest Doctor in the Room.Contact Dr. Mitchell:Email: care@mitchellmedicalgroup.comWebsiteInstagramYouTubeFacebookLinkedInBook: Conquering CandidaImmunoLytics - code SmartestDoc, 5% offApollo Neuro - code SMARTMD
