Chemotherapy, radiation and surgery are traditional ways to treat cancer and we’ve been taught that this is the best way to battle the disease. Dr. Veronique Desaulniers isn’t taking away any of the truths in this, but as a cancer survivor herself she wants people to know that there is a natural way of curing it. During her two-year battle Dr. Desaulniers created the 7 Essential System that guides patients and takes away a lot of the confusion from the healing process. Now retired from her clinical practice, she is busting breast cancer myths, one of which is that hormones don’t cause cancer, rather it is how much we are exposed to chemical estrogens. Find out what other breast cancer myths she has busted and learn her natural seven-step healing program.

Sleep has an important role in our body’s functions. We spend one-third of our lives sleeping and in that time of sleep, our bodies become refreshed and re-energized. Kansas Medical Center Associate Professor Katie Siengsukon believes that poor sleep affects the immune system, tissue healing, cardiovascular health and can even be the cause of Alzheimer ’s disease. Learn why for chronic pain patients, addressing sleep issues is more important than addressing the pain issues. Better sleep means better health and lesser pain.

Men will always have their bravado getting in the way of admitting that there’s something wrong with their body, especially if it involves their manhood. Author of Pelvic Pain: The Ultimate Cock Block Dr. Susie Gronski is saying that it’s time for this idealism to stop because male pelvic pain is real and there is no need to feel shy about it. Dr. Gronski educates her patients first about pain science to establish a comfortable level before she gets ‘down low.’ A discussion about male genitals is always awkward, but necessary so that even the patients themselves can navigate through the symptoms.
It’s great to be here with you where we talk about all things related to pain and natural pain relief. In the past on the podcast, I've talked about a niche topic, really a specialty topic that’s very important in the world of chronic pain and that’s pelvic pain. Oftentimes when we talk about pelvic pain, the first thing we think about is women’s health. That is of vital importance because there are millions of women who still are looking for help with their pelvic pain. However, there is an untold story in the world of pelvic health and that is men’s pelvic health. If you're a guy or if you are female who has a male counterpart, realize that the anatomy of the pelvic floor and the pelvis is very similar in males as it is in females except for that one or maybe three different pieces. I've gone really to the corners of the globe to find an expert who can talk to us about men’s pelvic health. I want to introduce you to Dr. Susie Gronski. She is a licensed Doctor of Physical Therapy, a board certified Pelvic Rehabilitation Practitioner.
In addition to knowing a lot about your private parts, she is also a Certified Health Coach. Simply put, she is a doctor for everything down there. Her passion is to make you feel comfortable about taboo subjects like sex and private parts. Social stigmas are not her thing. She provides real advice without the medical fluff, like a friend who knows the lowdown down there. Dr. Susie is an author of a wonderful book called Pelvic Pain: The Ultimate Cock Block and the creator of a unique Hands-On Training Program that helps men with pelvic pain become experts in treating their own pelvic pain and other problems. She is determined to make sure you know how you can get help for painful ejaculation, problems with your joystick, discomfort of pain during sex and how to control your pee. As a male, I can say they were all very important topics. All those without needing to be embarrassed, because oftentimes these could be topics that seem like they're taboo but they're often embarrassing to patients. They are real life problems that interact with your health. Whatever you want to call it, the penis, the shlong, a ding-dong, if you’ve got a problem down there, she is the person to get to know.

Surgery and drugs are always the go-to for doctors, but with the changing times there is now a need for the conventional ways to be reconsidered. Dr. Elizabeth Dean of the University of British Columbia in Canada believes that it is time to reconfigure a physical therapist’s role on healing a patient and help them live longer and healthier lives. It is also important to learn how lifestyle medicine can help in the assessment of nutrition and exercise. Dr. Elizabeth explains why the clinical community needs to be on the same page on nutrition and illness care.
I'm so excited you're here where we can talk about natural ways to heal from chronic pain as well as chronic disease. Before we get started with the episode, just a couple of show notes. I want to thank the Hudson Valley District of the New York Physical Therapy Association for hosting me at the Burke Rehabilitation Hospital on September 28th. I gave everyone a wonderful lecture. There are about 30 people who attended for our lecture on how nutrition can influence musculoskeletal pain as well as inflammation.
If you follow me, my work and my podcast, you know that I am passionate about nutrition and how nutrition can impact the lives of yourself, your family, your friends and your patients. I'm super excited this week to have with me Dr. Elizabeth Dean, who is a professor at the University of British Columbia in Canada. She is a physiotherapist. Her scale of work focuses on bridging the ultimate knowledge translation gap between what is known about the cause and factors contributing to lifestyle-related non-communicable disease and physical therapy practice. She has a particular interest in epidemiology and information to maximize outcomes using health education and interventions such as physical activity. She conducts research in the Middle East and Asia as well as multicultural Canada and works with international teams with respect to health-focused physical therapy practice.
Currently, she is focusing on effective knowledge translation of existing and new knowledge by physical therapist to meet the priority healthcare needs of people globally in the 21st century specifically toward non-communicable diseases. She is a leader in health-based physical therapy. She has been invited to speak at over 30 countries where she has presented keynote addresses, guest lectures, workshops, symposia, consultation. Together with her colleagues, she has presented over three physical therapy global health summits and World Confederation for Physical Therapy conferences.
What I love about Dr. Dean is I actually love her research. When I first got into nutrition, I did a great paper for my doctoral dissertation and I used a lot of her research to really support the stance that I had in my personal scope of why nutrition was important for physical therapists.
