It is still a very valid cause of TMS pain in muscles, tendons and ligaments, or anywhere blood and nerve tendrils reach into the body. As Dr. Sarno continued in his clinical practice at NYU Rusk, he expanded his TMS theory to include many other conditions including affective (emotional) ones, hence his renaming of TMS with the help of Dr. Marc Sopher, from Tension Myositis Syndrome to THE MIINDBODY SYNDROME. |

| I personally think the o2 deprivation theory makes a lot of sense. If its the autonomic nervous system thats involved, then it can turn on and off the blood supply in seconds, which also explains symptoms that can come and go in seconds. Adrenaline is intimately associated with the ANS, which is associated with chronic tension. I think it can explain blurry vision by ischemia to the optic nerve. It explains, pain, syncope, shortness of breath, bowel troubles, intimacy troubles, cardiac disease etc. It makes sense that exercise, massage and deep heat give temporary relief. I don't know if it explains everything, but if I had to guess, I think it plays a big role overall |
