If you followed the podcast for the last couple of months, you probably heard a lot about the brain, about the nervous system, about alarms in your head, about pain psychology, your thoughts, and your emotions. At this point you're probably thinking, "Dr. Joe, what about exercise? Where does that fit in? Where does movement fit in? What about all the information around biomechanics?" Here today to help us reconcile biomechanics into modern day pain science is Dr. Greg Lehman. He is a chiropractor and a physical therapist who has worked in clinical practice as well as conducted research in the field of biomechanics. He now integrates a biopsychosocial model aligned with a biomechanical model.

If you have struggled with chronic pain or you're a clinician or a practitioner who treats those that have chronic pain, undoubtedly you realize they do, of course, complain about chronic pain and often things like tension and tightness, but there's another symptom that almost 90% of the time will accompany those that have chronic pain. That is fatigue. Fatigue is one of those things that we think about it as that feeling in the morning where you can't get up and going or your ability or your lack of ability to be able to be resilient throughout your entire day. I really am excited to talk about this on the podcast because I really want to boil it down real deep into what are the lifestyle reasons for fatigue and then what's happening on the cellular level and how can we help fight fatigue.

I have a great expert today, her name is Dr. Carri Drzyzga. She is both a Chiropractic Physician and a Naturopathic Physician. She's the host of The Functional Medicine Radio Show and she's written a great book called Reclaim Your Energy and Feel Normal Again.

This week I have a wonderful guest on that is a practitioner. She's an occupational therapist. She also has a very interesting story about her own traumatic injury and how it really shaped her life not only as a person, but also helped shape her as a practitioner who helps people with chronic pain and other types of injuries. Her name is Phaedra Antioco. She's an Occupational Therapist and a Pain Relief Specialist. Like I said, she had her own traumatic injury and her own healing journey. Today, she's pain-free. She supports clients by looking at the whole person; putting all the pieces of the pain puzzle together and looking at things such as past trauma, lifestyle, daily movement patterns and really everything, which I think is wonderful in a holistic manner.

If you followed my podcast for some time, you know I have a really big passion around Functional Medicine and Functional Nutrition. Oftentimes, the nutrition part can be the one piece that's missing from your pathway to live a pain-free life. I've gone near and far to try to figure out who are the most interesting and best people to speak to on the podcast who can talk about everything that has to do with Functional Medicine and Functional Nutrition. This week, we are going to talk to Evan Brand. He's a leader in ancestral health, holistic nutrition and Functional Medicine. He's also the creator of the website called NotJustPaleo.com. He's the host of the Not Just Paleo podcast on iTunes, which is one of the top 25 natural health podcasts available.

This week, we are talking about a surgeon’s road map out of pain. When we think about pain, we think about chronic pain. If I asked you, have you ever had lower back pain in your life? Have you ever had neck pain? Have you ever had pain that maybe was in your right buttock or your left buttock, or maybe went down the back of your leg or to your calf? Chances are most of you would say yes to that. My guest this week is Dr. David Hanscom. He is a orthopedic spinal surgeon who wrote a wonderful book called Back in Control. It’s really a great book about integrative strategies for healing chronic pain.

Today, we are talking to Dr. Carolyn Berryman about the impact of pain on your cognitive function. Let’s start out with a question. Has pain ever affected you so much that you’ve had problems with your memory, or you’ve had problems making decisions, or you’ve had problems paying attention maybe in school or class or at work? Today in the podcast, we’re going to review what is cognitive function and if pain interferes with cognitive function or causes cognitive impairment.

I have a really amazing guest. I'm so excited to talk to this week. His name is Dr. William Davis. You’ll know him as the New York Time's bestselling author of Wheat Belly where he changed the lives of millions by teaching them how to remove grains from their diet to reverse years of chronic health problems. In his new book called Undoctored, he goes beyond cutting grains to help you take charge of your own health. This groundbreaking book reveals how millions of people are given dietary recommendations crafted by big business, how prescribed medications are often unnecessary. That's something we talk frequently about here on the Healing Pain podcast as we talk about opioids. Last, how there have been unwarranted procedures that feed the hungry revenue healthcare systems that have become so large and pervasive in our healthcare system, another thing we talk about when it comes to things like injections and MRIs and X-rays for all sorts and types of pain.

Dr. Melissa Farmer will share her thoughts on the role of learning and brain plasticity in establishing—and ultimately treating—the emotional memories that underlie chronic pain. As a form of emotional memory, chronic pain is perpetuated by counterintuitive physiological rules that distort how an individual perceives and interacts with the environment. Every individual creates a different “pain logic” to make sense of these experiences, and uncovering this logic is key in challenging these pain memories. Dr. Farmer will discuss the relationship between pain perception and the quirky mechanisms that establish chronic pain, how this learned association can drive maladaptive behaviors and beliefs, and how the controlled, therapeutic manipulation of emotional memory may potentially alleviate chronic pain.

Today I have a special interview with celebrity nutrition and fitness expert JJ Virgin. In September 2012, she got the call that every parent dreads: her 16-year-old son, Grant, had been the victim of a horrific hit-and-run. His injuries were so severe and his chances of survival so slim that doctors told his family to let Grant die. JJ decided to stop listening to the odds and start expecting miracles instead.  

Miracle Mindset tells the moving story of JJ, Grant, and their community as they made the journey from tragedy to healing. This powerful and uplifting memoir offers you an intimate look into the heart and mind of a mother battling for both her son and her own future, plus the lessons she learned that are crucial to a healthy, resilient mindset.
