A deeper dive into chronic pain & what happens in the brain

In this 78th episode I discuss some important neurology that is involved with chronic pain. So regardless of if you might suffer chronic neck or back pain, fibromyalgia, headaches, etc. the process of pain perception in the brain is largely the same. By understanding four primary mechanisms in the brain and nervous system, we can start to appreciate ways in which to moderate pain severity and suffering. Indeed up to 30% of human beings suffer chronic pain. So this is no small topic. In this episode I will discuss not only a few supplement-based therapies, but how the suffering from pain is largely an emotional concept. Many cases of chronic pain can effectively be helped through working on emotional stagnations. Lastly, I even draw from one of my favorite Harry Potter monsters. Tune in to find out why.
