What is "applied neurology"? And how it can relieve pain & invite ease through perimenopause & beyond with Mia Esquivel

So many of us live with some form of chronic or acute pain. We get used to it, we look for ways to relieve it, we may find some things that work - temporarily or long term. Sometimes that's movement practices, sometimes it's bodywork, sometimes it's structural adjustments, etc. But more often than not, we're not actually looking to the root of the pain. And unfortunately if it's connective tissue or bone-based, it can often be exacerbated in transitional times like postpartum or perimenopause / post-menopause.After many years of offering Structural Integration style bodywork, Mia Esquivel found that for both her own post-menopausal body and for her clients, she wasn't seeing the relief she knew could be possible.So she started seeking solutions outside of her bodywork box and came upon something called "Applied Neurology" and it has been a GAME CHANGER for herself and her clients.Listen in to hear all about it (and a little on her perimenopause and post-menopause story - hint: you might never guess that foot pain could be related to hormonal shifts!).Resources:Today's shownotes: Get links to Mia's offerings Free guide: 10 Key Herbs for Your Hormonal HealthEpisode 110: Healing chronic pelvic pain w Julia DyerEpisode 169: From a year of debilitating endo pain to feeling well w Mary Lauren FraserIf you loved this episode, share it with a friend, or take a screenshot and share on social media and tag me @herbalwombwisdomAnd if you love this podcast, leave a rating & write a review!
