Stuck with Chronic Pain or Symptoms? Let’s work together to reclaim your life
Have you tried physical therapy, medications, rigid diets and endless treatments or protocols, only for your symptoms to just keep coming back?
Maybe you’ve been told that ‘stress’ or ‘anxiety’ has something to do with it, but you’ve no idea how to change the situation. Your symptoms feel very physical, and trying to ‘just relax’ hasn’t worked for you.
If this is so, there’s a huge probability that your symptoms are neuroplastic (TMS) — and that my personalized TMS Coaching service can help you break free.
Hi, I’m Miriam
I’m a certified Chronic Pain Coach, Practitioner Trainer and Author of The Pain Secret: Unlocking the MindBody Connection to Overcome Chronic Pain and Symptoms.
With nearly 10 years of experience in the field of neuroplastic symptoms, I can identify exactly what keeps individuals ‘stuck’ with chronic symptoms - usually within the first coaching session!
Together we will aim for lasting change and complete symptom elimination. It’s not just about finding relief in the moment, but about working with the brain’s neuroplasticity to reintroduce safety in your body.
Why get coached for Chronic Pain or symptoms?
TMS Coaching is for you identify with any of the below scenarios:
✔ You believe you’ve got TMS / neuroplastic symptoms but still don’t know how to totally overcome it;
✔ You’ve never heard about TMS, but you’ve had chronic symptoms for over 4 months, and you think that stress, anxiety or past negative experiences have something to do with all of this
✔ You still fear that a past injury or a condition you were diagnosed with will keep you stuck with chronic pain forever - and this thought makes you feel simply awful!
✔ Having a flare-up scares you, or makes you feel very frustrated and upse
✔ You tend to worry and catastrophize about your symptoms or about having symptoms during an event or activity
✔ Your main emotions relative to your symptoms are either fear, frustration, disappointment or a sense of helplessness
Your Symptoms are NOT in your Head - But they are still reversible!
Neuroplastic symptoms involve the interaction of both brain and body, and they are very often misunderstood by both individuals and medical professionals.
The dominant approach in the past 60 years has been to address symptoms from a biomechanical standpoint, without taking into account how our emotional state influences our physiology. This is why traditional or physically-focused treatments don’t normally work for chronic neuroplastic symptoms - because they fail to address what’s actually causing the symptoms.
As someone who has been through all the confusion and disillusionment before learning what really works, I will help you understand what’s truly going on and teach you how to reverse it.
It is time for a different approach.
It’s time to stop trying and start creating the right conditions for pain-free.
What To Expect From My Coaching
MindBody Healing is often made to sound complicated over social media. By working with me, we’ll focus on what you need specifically, and ditch those practices or routines that don’t serve you.
One of the best advantages is that you will stop feeling so overwhelmed with conflicting information. Instead, together we’ll identify your own root triggers and I’ll recommend those techniques and processes that will be most beneficial for your specific situation.
Additional Benefits:
✔ Gain confidence that you can address your symptoms using mindbody principles and eliminate your doubt and fear of illness or injury*.
✔ Learn how to create safety in your life and in your body - without adopting rigid protocols or exercises!
✔ Learn how to work with triggers and flare ups as they arise. I will teach you the most effective ways of reducing anxiety and fear-based responses.
✔ Work with powerful neuroplasticity and pain reprocessing techniques and learn how to implement them on the go, as the need arises.
✔ Explore situations that may be causing dysregulation in your life, release repressed emotions and learn how to take aligned action.
✔ Get over your fear of physical exercise or other triggering activities and start being more active (only when you’re ready!)
✔ Know what to focus on every week - you and Miriam will come up with a practical action plan together at the end of each session.
* If for any reason there is strong reason to suspect that medical intervention is required and that your symptoms are not neuroplastic, I will let you know. However, this is not the case for 95% of the clients that I see have symptoms that are reversible using a mindbody approach.

Who is TMS / MindBody Coaching for?
The TMS Coaching Sessions are more suited to some individuals than others, due to the level of commitment initially required. My approach will best suit those who:
✔ You are willing to collaborate with me to discuss the most appropriate action steps for your situation and take responsibility for implementing them.
✔ You have ruled out serious medical conditions (infections, cancer, autoimmune diseases) with a doctor.
YOU CAN’T GET THE RESULTS YOU’D LIKE FOR AS LONG AS YOU RUN THE OLD ‘SOFTWARE’ IN YOUR BRAIN.
TMS HEALING IS ULTIMATELY ABOUT DITCHING YOUR IDENTITY AS A PAIN SUFFERER!
TMS Coaching is NOT for you if…
✖ You have suffered a severe acute injury in the last 4-6 months that is still in the process of healing.
✖ You are looking for a purely physical fix and refuse to discuss the psychological/emotional dimension of pain
✖ you feel uncomfortable doing introspective work relating to your personal / emotional life (this doesn’t mean you have to tell me everything about your personal life… you just need to be honest with yourself and ready to work on deepening your self-awareness!)
“I spent several thousand dollars over the course of a year to no avail. Physical therapy, neck-strengthening exercises, stretching, TENS therapy, near infra-red light therapy, ice packs, anti-inflammatory dietary supplements, CBD, diclofenac gel, ibuprofen, neck brace, neck traction device, shoulder harness, wrist braces, new glasses for the computer so I don’t have to tilt my head, special stands to hold iPad and iPhone at eye level paired with a bluetooth keyboard so I don’t have to look down to text, a device called that buzzes the back of my neck when I go into a head forward position, changing sleeping positions, using a standing desk, new pillows, new mattress... in the end, working with you on TMS had almost instant results. Crazy!”
Coaching FAQs
-
Although there are hundreds of different symptoms that individuals suffer from, there tend to be common underlying factors behind all of them.
During the coaching, we will identify which of these factors apply to you, and I will propose specific actions or tools to address them. The symptom or how long you’ve had it for is NOT important, because neuroplastic symptoms can take various forms depending on the individual’s background.
-
You may benefit from TMS Coaching if you meet at least two of these conditions:
1) you’ve suffered from the same type of chronic symptoms for over 4 months, and these symptoms aren’t linked to any serious underlying condition (like cancer, infection, or rheumatoid conditions);
2) you’ve already tried other treatments without seeing the results you desire (these may include physiotherapy, massage, chiropractor, pain killers, steroid injections, change in diet and other alternative remedies)
-
Every therapist, coach or doctor who deals with TMS has learnt about the approach through his or her own life experience, and then integrated the insight into his or her practice.This is because the TMS approach to chronic pain is NOT yet accepted by mainstream medicine, nor is it included as part of mainstream psychology. There is no University course that qualifies anyone as a TMS therapist, doctor or psychotherapist.
I am a Certified Holistic Life Coach and Mindbody Practitioner who has gone through the healing journey myself, and was trained to work with individuals’ limiting beliefs and mindset surrounding chronic pain. It is up to every individual to exclude serious medical conditions before working with me. If at any point during our sessions I observe that you may benefit from psychotherapy or from consulting a TMS-aware physician, I will personally recommend it. There are several neuroplastic pain experts that I personally collaborate with.
-
TMS recovery time varies between one individual and another, but it has nothing to do with how long you’ve had symptoms.
It took me and some of my clients 5 to 6 weeks to register results (i.e. a huge decrease in pain intensity or complete elimination), while it takes some others 6 months up to a year to recover completely. I’ve observed that the difference between those who recover fast and those for whom the process takes longer is that the former integrate the principles and key mindset shifts fully, without too much doubt and hesitation. Having an open and curious mind is a must.
Those with severe depression or other mental health disorders may find it more challenging to progress initially, however some of these conditions can also be alleviated through this work. -
It’s very likely that you have spent more money on pain relief treatments and unproductive doctor visits than you can ever spend on MindBody healing. After working for a couple of months with a TMS-aware or pain reprocessing practitioner, you will know exactly what you should be doing and the rest of the journey involves no additional costs, but only your own dedication.
If you are still highly skeptical, I encourage you to read more on the subject of TMS and neuroplastic symptoms first and get inspired by the hundreds of success stories out there. Then, get back to me when you feel more ready to commit to coaching.

You may consider my comprehensive Online Recovery Program, Pain Free Breakthrough. This program takes you through the process that has worked for hundreds of my clients and can be followed on its own, OR you can choose a Program + Coaching option that includes one coaching call, for only USD 222!

For the approach to work, you need to make your recovery a priority, at least for a couple of weeks.
That said, my approach does NOT take a lot of time: it simply requires dedication to stay aware of habits that are not helping you, and you can practise most of the techniques I propose on the go. I will NOT suggest that you follow daily practices, because I have found that these can do more harm than good. Instead, it’s more about working with your routine and helping you rewire your brain through your day to day experiences.
Certain individuals actually need to be doing less, rather than more. I will know if this is the case when I speak to you.
It’s also worth knowing that once the new habits and beliefs get installed, you won’t need to ‘make time’ for TMS healing, as you will already have learnt the lessons.
