The Pain Free Comeback Program is for individuals who are:

Active but in pain, OR used to be active but have lost their active lifestyle due to chronic pain: You may be a pro athlete or simply someone who wants to get back to family walks.

Open-Minded: open to new ideas, and believe there’s hope.  

Ready to be empowered: Those who are committed to being an ‘active player’ in their lives, not a ‘passive participant’.

Willing to go deep: Change can be uncomfortable. But that’s where growth happens. Be willing to go deep - especially when it’s scary or uncomfortable.

Committed: are determined to do the work necessary to make deep, personal change.  

Fun: This work can be fun, spontaneous and creative. Not that everything is positive & awesome, but that it can and will get better. 

This Program won't be a fit for all individuals with chronic pain. It's NOT for you if:

You’re not open to considering new ideas: If you aren’t open to the idea that your brain has a role to play in the generation of your symptoms (which is actually basic Science), then The Pain Free Comeback Program isn't for you.
 
You want to keep playing a victim card: Yes, we all do this on occasion. But if you refuse to take responsibility for your life, and simply believe you can’t change, then this program isn’t for you.

You’re looking for someone or something to 'fix' you without your personal involvement: No procedure, pill, physical treatment, practitioner, or program can ‘fix’ you. That’s because you’re not broken. This program is not about a passive treatment, like taking medication, and expecting results. It requires your active involvement in order to eliminate symptoms and take control of your life. If you are looking to be fixed, then this program isn’t for you.

You don’t want to put in the time: this program requires about two hours per week consistently to see real results. If you don’t feel like you can commit to that, then this program isn’t for you.

The first main proponent behind a mindbody approach to chronic pain was the doctor of Rehabilitation Medicine at New York University (NYU), named Dr. John E. Sarno. Sarno is famous for writing books and giving lectures that have healed tens of thousands people from years of chronic pain, sometimes in a matter of days and weeks!

 Dr Sarno based his pain treatment on observation, and helped patients link the physical tension in their bodies to emotional tension. Since his time, various studies in the fields of Rheumatology, Pain Psychology and Pain Management have proven that traumatic events or periods of chronic stress - especially trauma in childhood - significantly contribute to the likelihood of developing chronic pain (Karen P. Nicolson et. al., 2023, Crofford L.J, 2015, Arne Wyns et. al., 2023).

Since Sarno's findings, there has been additional research using neuroimaging linking real physical changes in the brain to an increased pain response, proving the now established fact that there is always brain involvement in the generation of chronic pain.  The Boulder Study that took place in 2021 also revealed that chronic pain patients who were educated on the mindbody connection and who were taught Psychological techniques for chronic pain had way more success in becoming pain free or nearly pain free compared to those who took a Placebo or Conventional Treatment (Yoni K. Ashar et al., 2022). At the end of the trial 66% of those patients who followed the mindbody approach were pain free or nearly pain free, compared to 20% randomized to placebo and 10% randomized to usual care. We teach the same techniques (and more!) in our Pain Free Comeback Program to make sure that no stone is left unturned.  

Recently, another study has shown that almost 90% of back and neck pain sufferers had neuroplastic pain - which means pain generated by neural circuits in the brain. This was in spite of 97% of sufferers having structural abnormalities, which proved to have nothing to do with their pain! (Howard Schubiner et. al, 2023). 

Pain Free Comeback aims to help you resolve any chronic symptom for which you haven't found permanent relief - no matter what diagnosis you've been given.

That includes conditions that have been diagnosed as or linked to: disk herniations and impingements, scoliosis, tendonitis (tennis and golfer's elbow), RSIs, plantar fasciitis, sciatica, piriformis syndrome, rotator cuff, knee or ankle 'injuries' that haven't 'resolved' after months of therapy, migraines, as well as more widespread pain conditions like fibromyalgia and CRPS.

In addition to painful symptoms, those who undertake this work can also experience relief from other digestive and vestibular conditions like IBS, acid reflux, food sensitivities, tinnitus, vertigo and other symptoms that haven't resolved with conventional or alternative treatments.

We have gone to great lengths to create a personalized program that can empower you to be pain-free without live sessions. This also allows us to create a program at the price of a few doctor visits.

We also respond personally to questions that participants leave on the lesson pages. That said, some participants appreciate a live component. We also offer 1:1 coaching with us at an additional extra. Miriam specializes in one-off sessions, while Alec does deeper engagements with clients.

We are also exploring offering group coaching and will have more news in this regard soon. 

We’re confident that you’ll see results from the Pain Free Comeback Program. That’s why we offer a risk-free 30-day money-back guarantee. Simply contact us within 30 days and we’ll give you a full refund.
