David Schechter, MD, is a family/sports medicine physician in private practice in Culver City, California. He has authored several books (including Think Away Your Pain) that explain the connection between stress and persistent or unexplained physical symptoms, such as back pain. In addition, he is the author of The MindBody Workbook, which has helped tens of thousands of people process emotional tension by writing about it. We explore Dr. Schechter's approach from a number of angles, and we get a picture of a doctor who has truly embraced what others in his profession are often so reluctant to embrace. You'll enjoy his willingness to combine disciplines and modalities in his healing practice and teaching.
