After 20 years of intense left leg sciatica, and avoiding so many of life's activities due to a fear of intensifying the pain, and after 4 surgeries and participation in nearly every oddball physical treatment out there, I got roughly 90% better after getting serious about Sarno and deciding to believe in his concepts 100%. Still 90% better and the successful outcome has lasted, I'd say, 3 years. Still haven't broken my conditioning regarding pain after running, but hey, I have to admit I haven't gritted my teeth and tried to plow through the pain on that one (and still do enjoy one hour brisk walks every day). My life is so much better after becoming a Sarno purist! |
