The Real Reason Your Pain Never Goes Away, and the Brain Science That Can End It | Dr. Cuan Wayne

from Live Beyond the Norms · host Chris Burres

Chronic pain doesn't live where you feel it. Dr. Cuan Wayne built an entire protocol around that one idea, and it's changing how people get out of pain for good.In this episode, Dr. Cuan explains why two people can have identical MRI scans and completely opposite pain experiences, and what that tells us about where pain actually comes from. He breaks down why the brain learns pain the same way it learns any skill, and how you can teach it something different.He walks us through his 10-layer NRE Protocol, the system he created after watching patients get treated, feel better, and keep coming back in pain because no one was addressing the brain side of the equation. He also shares the five pillars of a nourished brain, and why the one most people skip might be the most important of all."Pain is obviously a sensation in your brain. It's always real, but it is in your brain." — Dr. Cuan WayneSupport the show and get 50% off MCT oil with free shipping – just leave us a review on iTunes and let us know!https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/live-beyond-the-norms/id1714886566About Dr. Cuan Wayne:Dr. Cuan Wayne is a chiropractor, bestselling author of Why Movement Is Medicine, and founder of MoveMed.
