    Healing Self-Esteem

    November 28, 2022 / No Comments

    What is self-esteem, really? David Hansom, MD, proposes that it could be more harmful than helpful. Would you agree? David Hanscom, MD, is author of, Back in Control: A Surgeon’s Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain and Do You Really Need Spine Surgery?: Take Control with a Spine Surgeon’s Advice. Dr. Hanscom is an orthopedic complex spinal deformity surgeon who quit his surgical practice in 2019 to focus on teaching people how to break loose from the grip of chronic mental and physical pain – with and without surgery.

    Mind-Body Practices for Pain

    September 15, 2021 / No Comments

    “Mind-Body Practices for Pain” Integrative health shines in this area, and there are many approaches that help lower pain and stress.

The relaxation response, known as the “rest and digest” response may help reduce pain. I share five mind-body practices that may lower pain and prevent conditions that may lead to pain, such as: 1. Guided Imagery 2. Yoga 3. Massage and Bodywork…
