Today on the Holistic GP podcast, we chat with Dr Mitchell Yass, creator of the Yass Method for diagnosing chronic pain. The Yass Method looks at how the body shows symptoms to figure out which parts of the body are hurting and causing those symptoms. Chronic pain affects about 130 million Americans and about a billion people around the world. Misdiagnosis is the main cause of long-term pain. This is a direct result of the MRI being used for no good reason. He talks about how his beliefs are based on theoretical, clinical, and scientific evidence. I have helped a lot of people get rid of their pain, even after surgery didn't work. Dr Yass has found that in more than 98% of cases, the source of pain is muscular, even if an MRI shows structural changes like herniated discs, stenosis, arthritis, or meniscal tears on the scan. Because muscular causes don't show up on the test, it's important. It can't be used to find the tissue that's hurting and making the person feel bad, so the MRI can't be used to find it.

So what is this show all about? In our first episode, we give you the rundown on what to expect. Well first there is a lot of health misinformation out there on the internet, and this show is all about fact-checking and offering information about health from the point of view from an experienced health professional. We are here to set the record straight so you the listener can have a friendly, yet the confident voice that you can grow to know and trust. So what does a Holistic GP do? In western medicine, we often treat the symptom alone with a minimal exploration of other aspects of a person. In holistic medicine, we treat the whole individual, through mind, body and spirit. Our bodies are a powerful defence system that has a deep-seated ability to heal oneself. We look objectively at both natural remedies and conventional medicine to direct our patients on the best course of action.
