Trugging with chronic pain and you're trying to find help, you've probably noticed that the pain management industry is a minefield of problems with hardcore pharmaceutical drugs on one end of the spectrum and then all the wacky

potions and placebo's on the other. In an ideal world, your pain, physical pain, it's adaptive,

it's part of our body's defense mechanisms, our healing mechanisms, your body

wants to keep you safe, but all too often pain gets untethered from the original insult,

the original injury, and instead starts to attack the quality of your life.

My guest on this week's podcast is a medical doctor who has done extensive work with pain

around needles and now more recently around knee pain and back pain. If you're new to the

show it's the Lucas Rockwood show I'm the yoga teacher and trainer I'm the father

of three kids I'm a serial entrepreneur but firstly I'm a student and I use this

podcast as a way to research

health span, how we can all live our best lives, specifically in the second half of

life. To support the show, scroll down in whatever app you're listening on, or rating and review, would be very helpful so people can find the show.
