Turn Pain into Power with Compassionate Healing
When the mind speaks through the body, it deserves not just medical attention — but deep, compassionate understanding. Somatic Symptom Disorder (SSD) is a condition where persistent physical symptoms cause genuine suffering, even when no clear medical cause is found.
At such a delicate intersection of mind and body, Dr. Sathiya Ganesan stands as a beacon of hope, offering expert, empathetic, and science-driven care that restores health, confidence, and quality of life.
Understanding Somatic Symptom Disorders

Individuals with Somatic Symptom Disorders experience real physical symptoms like pain, fatigue, or dizziness that significantly disrupt daily life. The distress is genuine and overwhelming, often fueled by health-related anxieties and emotional turmoil.
Common signs include:
- Unexplained, persistent pain or discomfort
- Chronic fatigue without clear cause
- Digestive disturbances or neurological symptoms
- Excessive worry over minor bodily sensations
- Frequent medical visits with little reassurance
Left unaddressed, SSD can deeply impact mental health, relationships, and professional life — making specialized psychiatric care essential for true recovery.
