Another article mentioning Sarno but still focusing on the usual. Did not post the whole artcile because the rest kind of explained structural aspects. But I did post the link.

Is Home Treatment An Option?
Many Penn State alumni fondly remember David K., now 34, as the student who crawled to class. Mired by back pain throughout his four years of college, David saw tons of doctors from top neurosurgeons to psychologists for the pain. Instead of listening to the popular college music of his day like REM, he listened to the soothing sounds of pain expert John E. Sarno, MD, on cassette tapes called Mind Over Back Pain when he drove his Mustang around the college campus.
"If you don't have chronic back pain, you can't possibly imagine what it feels like," he says. "It's unbearable -- literally." He says that there were many times he couldn't walk and would have to crawl from his fraternity house all the way to class so he would not miss a midterm or final exam. "My fraternity brothers made a lot of fun of me," he says. "Still do." |

The link you posted did not work, so I found the article and edited the link.
This article really has nothing to do with TMS, though. Sarno is mentioned only in passing. Actually, most of the information and recommendations are absolutely contrary to TMS. |
