The Path to Pain Free Workbook Program

Break Free of Chronic TMS Pain with Duncan & Miriam

You’ve had the same symptoms for months or years. You’ve consulted different medical professionals, tried physical therapy, stretching, massage, and a bunch of other things.

But, despite the occasional pain relief, you may not have got rid of your pain completely.

Doctors can’t seem to find anything wrong, or have blamed your symptoms on a herniated disk, a strain, muscle tightness, bursitis, or even fibromyalgia…

Naturally, you feel frustrated, helpless and fearful. You may acknowledge that stress and anxiety may have something to do with all of this, but you’re still afraid that there’s something seriously wrong with your body, or that you are doomed to live with pain.

If you’re done with treating your symptoms, and you’d like to start addressing the real cause of chronic pain, then we invite you to embark on a journey of learning, self-discovery, and healing.

introducing the Path to Pain Free workbook

A wealth of information & support at your fingertips…

Path to Pain Free is an insight-packed resource and workbook that will provide the guidance and space for you to start tackling your chronic symptoms in a radically different way - from a MindBody (psychological) perspective.

The knowledge in this group is inspired from the teachings of Dr John Sarno and his pioneering work in the field of Tension Myositis Syndrome (today known as Neuroplastic Symptoms or Psychophysiological Disorders), and it is complemented by additional Neuroscience-backed research, emotional release and somatic techniques.

The lessons and resources will help reduce and eliminate various manifestations of chronic pain and other unexplained chronic symptoms, including IBS, Fibromyalgia, as well as symptoms that are mistakenly blamed on repetitive stress injuries, pinched nerves or disk herniations.

What’s different about Path to Pain Free?

Path to Pain Free gives you instant access to lessons, resources and tools created to help you break free from a variety of chronic pain symptoms.

This approach is different to other traditional and holistic treatments because it GIVES YOU BACK YOUR POWER and helps you treat the cause of persistent pain, and not the symptoms in isolation.

You will no longer be looking to external factors (like specific treatments, stretching or diet) to seek relief for your pain.

Path to Pain Free is based on cutting edge, pain neuroscience and when followed properly it can offer life changing results.

This is a psychological approach based on Pain Neuroscience to help you get to the root of your symptoms and address the real triggers of pain.

AND… this time round, you won’t be on your own…

Insight, Support & Accountability

At the core of the Path to Pain Free Program & Workbook are 3 fundamental pillars to recovery from TMS chronic pain. These are insight, support and accountability.

The resources have been created by TMS experts & MindBody Practitioners Miriam Gauci Bongiovanni and Duncan Clarke, the authors of the original Path to Pain Free ebook. Every lesson is intended to give you new knowledge and insight into why you developed symptoms, what may be keeping them in place, and what you can do to change this.

Miriam and Duncan will answer all questions posted in the dedicated Facebook Group, or personally via email.

What’s in it for you?

As a member, you’ll get access to bite-sized lessons and tools that will prove to you that chronic pain doesn’t have to last forever.

You’ll learn exactly which obstacles are keeping you stuck in pain and what you can do about them.

You can progress through Path to Pain Free step by step, knowing exactly what to do and when - without having to deal with all the overwhelm and information overload that you’ve probably been exposed to so far…

And the best part?

Enrolling for Path to Pain Free allows you to send any questions to Miriam and Duncan for quick support, plus the facility to interact with other members through the group.

Your downloadable Workbook (where you’ll do all the personal work) will also be yours to keep!

YOU CAN OVERCOME CHRONIC PAIN, EVEN IF YOU’VE HAD IT FOR MONTHS OR YEARS.

IN FACT, THE APPROACH WE’LL INTRODUCE YOU TO IS SPECIFICALLY INTENDED FOR PERSISTENT, LONG-TERM PAIN OR SYMPTOMS!

How can Path to Pain Free help me with Chronic Pain Recovery?

Path to Pain Free helps individuals tackle a variety of chronic pain conditions by working with the connection between chronic pain and the brain.

The approach helps deal with symptoms that fall under a condition known as TMS (Tension Myositis Syndrome), also known as neuroplastic symptoms, or psychophysiological disorders.

These terms refer to a myriad of symptoms that have become conditioned in the body and that persist in the long term (anything from long-term back and neck pain to fibromyalgia pain, unexplained nerve pain and migraines).

Thousands of people have recovered from persistent, chronic pain by applying this method.

If you’ve had chronic pain for months, or even years, and nothing has ever worked, then you’re very likely to benefit from Path to Pain Free.

why your brain matters…

All kinds of physical sensations are registered by the brain - we wouldn’t be able to feel anything if it weren’t for our nervous system!

The pain response always happens as a means to ‘protect’ us from danger - but sometimes, this response is fired unnecessarily, as our system ‘overreacts’.

When pain or symptoms become chronic, the brain has learnt how to keep reproducing them more easily, and this happens due to a variety of factors. Our perception of pain is altered depending on our past and present experiences, and our pain levels are influenced by the emotions, beliefs and behaviours that we adopt on a daily basis - most of which we are not even conscious of.

Thing is, you don’t need this overprotection. You don’t need to keep generating pain that no longer serves you. You can literally ‘reprogram’ your automatic pain cycle!

So ask yourself:

• Have you had your symptoms for over 6 months?

• Have you been treating the symptoms in isolation, without experiencing much relief?

• Does your pain seem to have a ‘pattern’ (such as being worse in the evening, or the morning)?

• Have you been blaming your pain on an old injury that you’ve had years ago? (hint: most injuries heal within less than 3 months, and you are probably no exception…)

• Do you have multiple symptoms, which sometimes seem to substitute for each other?

• Do you find yourself constantly monitoring your pain, anticipating it, or desperately wondering when it will go away?

• Are you constantly afraid that physical activity will make your pain worse?

• Do you continuously feel fearful, powerless, anxious and/or frustrated at your symptoms?

• Are you ready to acknowledge the link between chronic pain and the brain?
  
  If you’ve answered yes to some of these questions, then you’ll benefit from Path to Pain Free!

IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT KIND OF SYMPTOM YOU HAVE* - THIS PROGRAM WILL HELP YOU CHANGE YOUR RESPONSE TO PAIN, AND REPROGRAM YOUR BRAIN FOR PAIN-FREE!

*It is important to have excluded life-threatening conditions and other medical issues that require urgent treatment before embarking on Path to Pain-Free. This includes excluding the presence of tumours, infections, and viruses that may be responsible for your pain. Rheumatoid conditions are also not a candidate for this program.

What kind of symptoms does this approach address?

Although symptoms and the pain location vary from one individual to another, the root cause is most often found in the way that we unconsciously respond to and behave around pain, which in turn makes pain an ‘automatic’ response that the body learns to generate on a consistent basis.

Some of the most common chronic pain conditions that fall under TMS and which can be tackled through this program include:

• back pain (including pain blamed on scoliosis, pinched nerves, bone spurs and spondylolysthesis)

• neck pain (including pain blamed on pinched nerves)

• shoulder pain

• unexplained neuropathic pain

• fibromyalgia symptoms

• sciatica pain

• piriformis pain

• TMJ disorders

• facial pain

• pelvic pain

• tension headaches / migraines

• pain blamed on tendonitis

• carpal tunnel syndrome / wrist pain

• tennis elbow

For as long as these conditions have persisted for months and years, and serious medical conditions have already been eliminated, you can safely start treating the symptoms using the TMS method!

PATH TO PAIN FREE IS FOR THOSE WHO ARE READY TO EMBRACE THE MIND-BODY CONNECTION, WHO ARE OPEN TO EXPLORING AND CHANGING THOSE EMOTIONS AND BEHAVIOURAL PATTERNS THAT ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR GENERATING CHRONIC PAIN.

Path to Pain-Free is intended to treat the source of chronic pain, and not the ‘symptoms’ themselves. The Program is not a substitute for medical treatment. Instead, it works by recommending a structured, psychological approach that can alter the pain response by helping people deactivate those neural pathways that are responsible for generating chronic pain.

Ready to change things around?

We believe that following a structured approach based on TMS and Pain Neuroscience Education is the best thing one can do for the majority of chronic pain symptoms. All it takes is a commitment on your part to learn the truth about your pain.

As you progress on your journey, you’ll quickly learn why your pain has persisted, and what you have been doing to keep the cycle going. Anyone with a little determination to learn and apply our teachings in practice will benefit!

So are you truly ready to break free?
