Hi. Richard, here. An associate brought it to my attention recently that pain, or the perception thereof, can actually be due to one's state of mind — sometimes.
I'm not usually inclined to subject myself to the claim that back pain is "all in your head" as my experience has proven otherwise; however, I do know that my state of mind can make a difference. Much of my pain is muscular (due to inflammation from various injuries), and if I am tense or worried or upset for some reason (and it's an easy state to get in these days given the state of the world, this country and the economy, no?), I know my pain, or the perception thereof, can worsen.
So… having been reminded of this, and having already recommended BrainSync, I've decided it's probably appropriate to recommend another resource.
I've had some positive experience with this, so this isn't just out of the blue. Wendi.com now uses some of the same brain entrainment techniques, or at least similar, as those that BrainSync uses, and I have found her recordings very relaxing, and sometimes helpful with the pain.
There's a lot more available than just healing and back pain relief, some of which can also help with pain, such as sleeping better, losing weight, dealing with depression, etc., so I've decided to just link to the site rather than the specific back pain relief product. The site's fairly easy to navigate, so if you're primarily interested in back pain relief, you shouldn't have any trouble finding that or other related programs:
As for my situation, I may be headed for more surgery. It hasn't helped so far, but some technician thinks they've found something in my latest MRI. I'd hate to think that much of my suffering has been due to all those other technicians missing something obvious in the past, but whatever.
Anyway… I'll be headed to another doc soon for another evaluation, and if surgery is in the offing, I guess I'll consider it. Who knows, maybe I'll be able to dedicate more time and energy to this site one of these days…
Wish me luck, and of course I wish you much luck with your pain as well.
