Dr. Bernard Seif answered

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Lower back pain: Hope you have seen your doctor and have diagnosis and treatment such as physical therapy. If you've seen the doc you can look into a mind-body approach to pain based on the work of John Sarno, MD. You can search out his books and videos on the net. It is helpful w/body based pain. Peace and good health.
