To say "it's all in your head" to everyone suffering from RSI, anywhere, ever, is a dangerous overstatement. RSI is a description of an injury, not a diagnosis. Problems causing RSI can include: - Genuine tendonitis. - Carpal tunnel syndrome. - Many and various shoulder problems including thorassic output syndrome. - Neck posture problems often feeding into things like brachial plexus problems. - Posture problems elsewhere. - Muscle strength issues. - Tension Mytosis Syndrome (as referenced in your article). I've read quite a lot about TMS. It's an interesting potential diagnosis and I'd certainly advise anyone suffering chronic pain to look into it - AS WELL AS other more conventional routes. Even Dr Sarno, the author of "The Mind Body Prescription", as referenced in the article, advises that you only consider TMS as a cause after conventional medical problems have been ruled out. Ignoring all physical causes in favour of a single psychosomatic diagnosis, with no evidence, is extremely unwise. Advising people to do so is extremely irresponsible.
