Control Pain & Heal Faster With Your Brain

In this episode, I describe the science of how and why pain arises
in the body and brain, and how we can actively control our
experience of pain. I discuss inflammation, stress, acupuncture,
limb damage and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). I review protocols
that leverage the lymphatic and nervous system to accelerate pain
relief and healing in a variety of situations. Other topics
discussed include how heat versus cold impacts neurons and wounds,
red-light, sunlight, stem cells and more.  Read the full show
