Every doctor considers every patient as a case study in and of itself, and that every patient has a different way of defining the pain they are feeling. Dr. Jarod Hall explains how group discussions among patients transform into a healing environment where a physical therapy session isn’t just another day of exercising. Learn why doctors need to create constant dialogues with patients to lessen the fear of the pain they are feeling.
Pain is multi-factorial. Addressing the complex nature of chronic pain by a skilled clinician is vitally important. The best research indicates that physical therapy informed from a biopsychosocial model of care is most effective. Within that framework, there are many treatments to choose from. The current challenge lies not only in predicting who will best respond to one approach over another, but in understanding the process that explain how or why specific therapies work.
Joining us is Dr. Jarod Hall, who is a licensed Doctor of Physical Therapy. His clinical focus is in orthopedics with an emphasis on therapeutic neuroscience education and the purposeful implementation of foundational principles of exercise in the management of both chronic pain and athletic injuries. He’s an adjunct Faculty Professor at the University of North Texas Health Science Center in their Doctorate of Physical Therapy program. He assesses and treats orthopedic injuries, pain science and manual therapy and educates on that at the university there. Additionally, he’s a blogger whose work has focused on how to succeed in the clinical environment as a new graduate physical therapist, debunking common exercise and rehab myths, manual therapy and pain science education.

For the body to be healthy the brain needs to be healthy. Join Dr. Steven Masley as he explains why having a healthy heart is a better brain solution. Learn how your heart rate tells a lot about your brain functions and how exercise is the best way to live healthy. But having a healthy body will require proper nutrition. Discover how all these factors make for a healthier version of you.
Each day, your brain fires up all your senses, brings you pleasure as well as pain, catalogues a lifetime of memories, solves an array of problems, and connects you to the world around you. You can live with one kidney, with a transplant of heart, liver and other organs, but nothing can substitute for a healthy brain. We know that chronic pain often interferes with the brain's cognitive functions such as memory. We know that memory loss is a major concern for adults as they age. Joining us today to share how you can have a better brain is Dr. Steven Masley whose passion is to empower people to achieve optimal health through comprehensive assessments and lifestyle changes. He's a physician, nutritionist, trained chef and author. You may know him as the creator of the number one all-time health program for public television, 30 Days to a Younger Heart. Today, we'll be engaging in a conversation about perhaps our most vital organ, the brain.

The prediction, prevention and alleviation of persistent pain are challenging tasks because the precise cause is often elusive and an individual’s experience of pain varies considerably. To reduce the suffering associated with pain in an effort to restore a more balanced state of being, this will require an approach of humility and curiosity and the examination of multiple factors that contribute to the pain experience. Those are the words of today’s guest on the podcast. Joining me today is Dr. Nicholas Karayannis. We’re discussing mindfulness of the body. He is a physiotherapist, clinical researcher, and mindfulness teacher. His research aims to improve the health status, beliefs and behaviors of people suffering from persistent pain through innovative refinement of clinical decision-making, rehabilitation, and focuses on developing a better understanding of which person respond to one type of mind, heart, body therapy over another, in addition to understanding, refining the content and delivery of meditative and movement-based forms of care in practice.

Pediatric chronic pain is a significant problem with conservative estimates that somewhere between 20% to 35% of children and adolescents are affected by it worldwide. Pain experience in children hospitals is known to be common but is under-recognized, often under-treated, with more than 10% of children who are hospitalized showing features of chronic pain. Although the majority of children that report chronic pain will not be permanently disabled by it, pediatric chronic pain patients often require intensive psychological as well as physiological interventions. The total cost as our society in the United States is somewhere in the upwards of $20 billion, I'm sure globally that's much more.
Here to speak to us today is Dr. Laura Simons who is an expert and working really at the intersection of child psychology and chronic pain. She is an Associate Professor in the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Management at Stanford University School of Medicine. In addition to an active program of research, she works in the clinic evaluating and treating children and adolescents who present with chronic pain. She has developed an exposure-based intervention for youth that have chronic pain and also integrates neuroimaging into her program of research to gain a better understanding of the ultimate psychological processes that can occur in children with chronic pain.
