Learn how to relieve chronic pain for good with this life-changing New York Times bestselling book. Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional. Musculoskeletal pain disorders have reached epidemic proportions in the United States, with most doctors failing to recognize their underlying cause, leaving patients desperate–and still in agonizing pain. Dr. Sarno reveals how many painful conditions–including most neck and back pain, migraine, repetitive stress injuries, whiplash, and tendonitises–are rooted in repressed emotions, and shows how they can be successfully treated without drugs, physical measures, or surgery. Broken down into three sections, Dr. Sarno takes the reader through the psychology, physical manifestations, and treatment of Mindbody Disorders. Informative and accessible, The Mindbody Prescription is a revelatory book that gives hope to long-sufferers of physical pain–that they may regain a feeling of comfort and safety in their bodies. "My life was filled with excruciating back and shoulder pain until I applied Dr. Sarno's principles, and in a matter of weeks my back pain disappeared. I never suffered a single symptom again...I owe Dr. Sarno my life."" - Howard Stern

This book is aimed at women readers experiencing unwanted pain with sex who: - Suffer with pain that has been difficult to diagnose - Are interested in resolving their pain - Want to enjoy pain-free sex - Desire more pleasure in their bodies, lives, and relationships - And are searching for ways to help themselves Coauthored by a women's health physical therapist and a sexuality educator, The Pleasure Prescription outlines an approach that many women may find counterintuitive: that their own sexual pleasure may be a pathway to overcoming pain. Research shows that decreasing pain allows for more pleasure; conversely, the stories highlighted in this book suggest that increasing pleasure can help diminish a woman's experience of sexual pain. The Pleasure Prescription is the culmination of more than fifty years of the authors' combined experiences with women in their respective practices. It includes case studies, diagrams, and the latest scientific research. Each chapter ends with "prescriptions" designed to guide readers through the healing process.
