Summary: This is a good start!
Comment: When I first read Mind Over Back Pain, I understood how repressed anger, anxiety, and frustration can cause back pain, but was left with many questions on how to treat it. It was Dr. Sarno's next book, Healing back pain, that explainend more clearly the diagnosis and helped me recover from chronic pain in my back, legs, knees, feet, neck, arms, and hands, and almost completely disability.

Combining guidelines provided by Dr. Sarno with techniques used by Olympic athletes, I was able to design a nine-step repid recovery program that allowed me to improve immediately and recover within four days. My story is detailed in Rapid Recovery from Back and Neck Pain: A Nine-Step Recovery plan and serves as another testimony to the accuracy of Dr. Sarno's diagnosis. Rapid Recovery from Back and Neck Pain is now available at Amazon.com.

Summary: Incredible back pain conquest!
Comment: I actually agree with the May 2 review...to a point. I found the book engaging but not very "practical." However, everything about Dr. Sarno's approach is already here, even if it is better developed in his later books.

Now, to the point. Dr. Sarno places a lot of emphasis on "knowledge therapy," and in the last seven weeks I've learned what he meant. I had a lamenectomy 25 years ago, but suffered from back pain for 27 years nonetheless. I read this book seven weeks ago, and used it as "knowledge therapy" I discovered later. Three nights ago, I awoke in the middle of the night lying flat on my back, something I could not do for 27 YEARS without excruciating problems later. I rolled to my side, got out of bed...with no pain...no reaction. And no problems since! I'm awestruck!

Buy this book or a later Sarno book, but buy his therapy! For God's sake, don't do surgery or any other radical approach, until you've checked him out! It's incredible!

Summary: If only it were this easy
Comment: While it is important to consider all possible causes of back pain, this book gives many irresponsible generalizations about the causes for back pain and the solutions as well as their results. It pretty much says, it is all in your head and surgery and physical therapy will cure only about 1% of the patients. I don't agree with this and although I kept reading to see what I could glean from the book that might be helpful, I was very disappointed that I spent money on the book.
