<itunes:subtitle>A Series of Interviews on How You Can Use Your Mind to Relieve Pain in Your Body</itunes:subtitle>
<itunes:author>David Schechter, MD, Arlen Ring, PhD, and Arthur Smith, PhD</itunes:author>
<itunes:summary>In this series of interviews, you will learn about tension myositis syndrome (TMS), a very common, stress related cause of chronic back pain and other forms of chronic, musculo-skeletal pain. Drs. David Schechter, MD, a physician, Arlen Ring, PhD, a psychologist, and Donald Dubin, a psychotherapist, explain how this often painful, but ultimately benign condition that can affect muscles, ligaments, and nerves, is diagnosed and treated with a mind-body medicine approach. This podcast series is sponsored by the Seligman Medical Institute (SMI), a private, non-profit foundation dedicated to TMS research.</itunes:summary>
