back pain

Psychosomatic
Herniated Disc Pain

Psychosomatic herniated disc pain is the actual source of most long term chronic disc pain syndromes. The psychosomatic process has proven itself to be involved in numerous mind/body health issues and is directly responsible for the epidemic of treatment resistant physical and psychological health conditions which are affecting the majority of adults in modern society.

Psychosomatic herniated disc pain

* Herniated Disc Fear

* Herniated Disc Scapegoat

* Herniated Disc Nocebo

What is Psychosomatic Herniated Disc Pain?

Psychosomatic does not mean “imaginary” or ”not real”. It simply designates ACTUAL PHYSICAL SYMPTOMS which are caused by, worsened by or perpetuated by a psycho-emotional process. Mind/body interactions are responsible for all conditions of health and disease which exist in the physical anatomies of every human being on this planet.

Psychosomatic Herniated Disc Pain Examples

Let’s start with some easy examples of mind/body interactions…

* It is easy to see how emotional fear causes a physical response. The heart rate increases, perspiration begins and the pupils enlarge.

* Physical sexual response is definitely a completely emotionally driven anatomical event in both men and women.

Ok, here is a more complicated example…

* Emotional anxiety will prevent the body from resting. Sleep does not come easy and even when it does, the emotional mind does not allow the body to recuperate. Instead, the anxiety often infiltrates the subconscious mind while it should be resting, causing nightmarish dreams and a restless sleep.

Get the idea? Ok, it’s time to talk about how the mind can cause, worsen or perpetuate back pain…

Psychosomatic Herniated Disc Pain Process

Psychosomatic pain exists due to unresolved emotional issues which are repressed in the subconscious mind. These thoughts, feelings and memories are directly responsible for causing physical pain and related bodily or psychological symptoms as part of the repression process. In essence, the mind will use the pain as a camouflage, concealer or smokescreen to hide these emotionally charged repressed thoughts. These powerful negative emotions can relate to any number of life experiences, but are often tied to events which hold great pain for us or situations which were never truly worked out. Being that these emotional issues are repressed, you do not think about them or even know they are causing you such health troubles, since they exist under the surface of conscious thought, in the deepest recesses of your subconscious mind.

Ok, so the cause of the pain is emotional… but how does it actually enact bodily symptoms? Once again, the answer is deceptively simple.

Psychosomatic Herniated Disc Pain / Ischemia

Oxygen deprivation, also known as ischemia back pain, is the anatomical process used as the enforcer of the subconscious mind’s desires. Simple ischemia can be enacted easily through the autonomic system and can be directed at any of the body’s locations or systems. The most common symptoms caused by this process include:

* Back Pain
* Headaches including migraines and tension varieties
* Stomach sensitivity, IBS, digestive concerns, ulcers
* TMD/TMJ
* Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
* Plantar Fasciitis
* Fibromyalgia, myofascial pain
* Shoulder, knee, wrist and other joint pain syndromes
* All Tendonalgias
* OCD
* Depression
* Anxiety
* Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
* Skin disorders including adult acne, eczema, and psoriasis
* Sexual dysfunction in males and females
* Some forms of asthma
* Some forms of prostatitis
* Chronic or repetitive urinary tract infections
* Some allergies
* Iliotibial band syndrome
* Paroxysmal hypertension
* Bell’s Palsy
* RSI

Believe it or not, this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to psychosomatic pain. This process is truly involved in every health related and disease related process which occurs in our bodies every day or every year of our lives.

Ischemia leaves virtually no physical evidence (except for residual clues in the nuclei of affected cells) and is rarely diagnosed. This explains why so many of these conditions have experienced such unchecked growth in the past few decades. Luckily, the process is basically harmless and can be reversed at any time using easy to learn knowledge therapy techniques.

Psychosomatic Herniated Disc Pain Reality

In the case of a herniated disc, the structural condition exists, but is not responsible for any painful complaint. It is merely a convenient diagnostic scapegoat. The pain is actually the result of mild ischemia of the surrounding nerve and muscle tissues. Even the lowest levels of oxygen deprivation will affect the neurological structures near the herniated disc. This will cause localized and radiating nerve pain, tingling, numbness and weakness. Higher levels of ischemia will result in acute flare ups of muscular spasm and severe gripping back muscle pain. Once the acute ischemia event passes, the patient is left with the low level chronic nerve pain once again and a progressive sense of fear and dread which actually helps perpetuate the ongoing ischemic process. It is indeed a vicious cycle…

Psychosomatic Herniated Disc Pain Advice

This article might seem like a lot to take in all at once. Try coming back and reading it a few more times over the course of several days. Breaking out of the old mind set of a physical herniated disc diagnosis being responsible for your pain can be a real challenge for some patients. Remember, the idea of psychosomatic pain must make sense to you if you are going to cure the condition.

Can you really have faith in the diagnosis of a herniated disc when your symptoms change and move around often? Can you have faith in that diagnosis, when the same doctors who made it simply can not cure your pain? Can you have faith in that diagnosis after learning the facts about herniated discs and discovering that they are rarely responsible for ongoing symptoms? I did not think so… I did not either. Luckily, that is the key to ending the pain. Change your mindset and merely consider the alternate explanation. Give knowledge therapy a try. There is nothing to lose… It is free (or low cost)…It is ultra-effective... It is time tested…
IT MIGHT JUST BE THE CURE WHICH COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE.
It saved mine… I owe everything to the ability to open my mind and simply discover the truth.
