Somatoform Disorder

When the body speaks the mind — we help you listen.

Do you experience physical pain or symptoms with no clear medical cause? This could be a sign of a somatoform disorder, where emotional stress shows up as bodily discomfort. At Mananalam Clinic, we approach this mind-body connection with deep care and understanding. With Dr. Thirunavukarasu Manickam’s 45+ years of experience, we help uncover the psychological roots behind unexplained symptoms and guide you toward lasting relief. Normal bodily sensations are amplified. So the individual perceives as a complaint for which there is no physiological disease.

What to Expect in Your Session

  • Mind-body relaxation methods to ease physical discomfort
  • Therapy focused on identifying emotional triggers behind symptoms
  • Symptom journaling and stress pattern tracking
  • Empathy-driven support that validates your physical experiences

We work to help you reconnect with your body in a healthier way. Using cognitive-behavioral strategies and emotional awareness techniques, our goal is to reduce distress, restore calm, and improve your daily functioning — both mentally and physically.
