"I started working on my anger and very seriously analyzing the thoughts that were going on in my mind before and during the back pain that I was experiencing...As I get more in touch with the source of the pain, the pain is alleviated. So I am a living testimony to the work that you are doing."

---Angela, age 45, San Francisco

"I enjoyed the lecture. I have a lot of admiration for you as a physician who has chosen to balance two different approaches toward the issue and treatment of pain. It's not easy pioneering new paradigms of thought and practice in any field."

---Morley, 36, Los Angeles

"...I was bedridden for twenty-one years before seeing you in your office. I am now playing tennis regularly, two or three times a week! This is the closest thing to Lourdes (spa in France famous for miracle cures) that I'll ever come."

---Molly-Ann, Santa Monica

" I was treated by an orthopedic surgeon who told me that I would have to resign myself to limited mobility and that I might never be able to resume the hiking and biking that I loved. After Dr. Schechter supervised my TMS Treatment program, my pain disappeared-- I'm now enjoying the activities once denied me"

---Annette, Santa Monica

"I'm a practicing physician and long-time back pain sufferer. Nothing really helped me until Dr. Schechter explained to me about Tension Myositis Syndrome (TMS). Since then, my fear of injury has diminished dramatically, and I'm much more athletically active with tennis and swimming. I can assure you that the TMS diagnosis is real and the TMS approach does work."

---Luis N. Pacheco, MD , Los Angeles. Associate Medical Director, California Family Care; Clinical Assistant Professor, USC School of Medicine.
