Amazing. I'm noticing a lot of psychosomatic pain is caused by the subconscious. I've been doing the techniques Dr. Hancock suggested and notice the difference in my own life. I'm now using these techniques with my clients. I used to love Dr. Sarnos work as well.
Why did you love Dr. Sarno's work if it didn't heal you? Why are you still here lurking around the chronic pain videos if these Doctors healed you with their books? Why are you still searching for solutions? I'll tell you why. It's because you believe there is a cure. Notice there is no empirical proof of Dr Sarno's or Dr Hanscom's "knowledge." These Doctors are profiting off of your hope, which I find particularly cruel. If there was a solution to chronic pain, patients wouldn't need to buy books and classes on how to manage pain. The fact that there is no solution is what gives these medical shamen an income. The great American tradition of snake oil sales, that's why you are still here lurking the halls of chronic pain forums. It's because you are still in just as much pain as you were pre-Sarno and you are forced by life to hope there is a solution in the next book you purchase. There isn't. There never will be. Ask yourself this "why doesn't Dr. Sarno and Dr Hanscom give away their books for free online?" They are both independently wealthy. This is a business, not healthcare.
What if the pain itself ruins your sleep, as in my case (a sixty year old PCP/GP suffering from CPPS for the past seven months)? To validate Dr. Hanscom's point, a good night's sleep dramatically impacts my quality of life, anxiety level and pain threshold the day after. And more importantly, lack of sleep -- mostly resulting from the pain -- is a major setback. Will a short-acting benzodiazepine like clonazepam be useful in the short term in this scenario?
This is pseudoscience, so says the Cauda Equina Syndrome with which i am afflicted. Likewise the Complex Regional Pain Syndrome two of my colleagues have. Ideopathic elevated severe pain is not caused by anger. Self-observation.
Isn't cauda equina quite an extreme case of a lower lumbar disc bulge that is effecting the lower nerve roots? From what I read cauda equina is usually an emergency room visit, is it from an accident?
I’m fairly confident he is referring to chronic pain or other responses that do not have a direct reason. If you have fall off a ladder and break your leg then yes, not caused by anger.
Brilliant Doctor speaking in an easily understandable way!
I am learning from Dr. David Hanscom and readling his book. Thank you moderator too!

Clonazepam not short acting…longer half life than Xanax and Ativan.
@@lululove6175 Correction: I meant shorter onset of action.

Totally agree….not EVERYTHING is TMS.
