In today's episode, I speak with Dr. Mark Kargela, a seasoned clinician and educator, about chronic pain—its complexity, its impact, and how practitioners can better support patients struggling with it. The discussion focuses on shifting clinical approaches from tissue-centric models to ones that integrate contemporary neuroscience and lived experience. Key topics include: Understanding Chronic Pain: The conversation defines chronic pain not simply by duration (e.g., beyond three months), but as a biopsychosocial phenomenon that fundamentally changes the nervous system. Dr. Kargela emphasizes that chronic pain is often not a direct marker of tissue damage, but a protective output of the nervous system influenced by biology, psychology, and social factors. Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE): Both clinicians stress the importance of PNE in helping patients reframe their pain experience. Teaching people how pain works can reduce fear and catastrophizing, improve self-efficacy, and set the foundation for graded movement and recovery. Central Sensitization and Nervous System Dysregulation: The discussion highlights how sensitized neural pathways can perpetuate pain even in the absence of tissue pathology. Techniques that modulate the nervous system—such as breathing, sleep optimization, gentle movement, and mindfulness—are presented as key therapeutic tools. Limitations of Traditional Biomedical Models: Dr. Kargela critiques overly mechanical approaches that chase tissue “damage” or perfect biomechanics, advocating instead for approaches that validate patient experiences and support behavior change. Clinician Takeaways: The episode encourages health and fitness professionals to: Ask better questions that uncover contributors to a person's pain narrative. Shift from “fixing” people to coaching them toward resilience. Recognize that empathy, listening, and patient-led goals are central to helping people move forward.

This recent podcast episode, hosted by Dr. Carol and Kim Pittis, delves deep into the practical applications and theories surrounding FSM, making it a valuable resource for medical practitioners aiming to integrate this technology into their practice. Understanding the Health Pyramid with FSM The podcast opens with Kim Pittis sharing insights from a recent course she attended, where the concept of a health pyramid was introduced. She highlights the importance of screenings, assessment, mobilization, movement, and stabilization, crucial parts of patient care in both biomechanics and the biotensegrity model. FSM, however, appears to transcend traditional modalities by offering versatile treatment options that aren't confined to specific conditions. Exploring FSM Frequencies One of the key takeaways from Dr. Carol and Kim's discussion is their exploration of FSM frequencies, specifically the use of 124 – a frequency often used for healing scar tissue. Dr. Carol notes that while dissolving scar tissue, practitioners must ensure that stabilizers are ready to replace it for effective healing, emphasizing cautious application. Palpation Techniques and Patient Assessment The podcast segment on mastering palpation techniques is particularly insightful for practitioners. Dr. Carol shares her unique approach to palpation, which involves 'seeing' with your fingers, a skill likened to a masterclass in perception. This technique allows practitioners to accurately assess and address scarring and other tissue abnormalities in patients, enhancing diagnostic precision. Addressing Complex Conditions The hosts also navigate through complex conditions such as post-shingles neuropathy and lupus, offering invaluable insights into using FSM for managing these challenges. Dr. Carol explains her protocols for addressing nerve damage post-shingles, which often involves treating the damaged nerve to restore function and alleviate pain. For lupus, they emphasize the role of the vagus nerve and the importance of identifying triggers and stressors that exacerbate the condition. The Role of FSM in Osteoporosis and Tendon Health For practitioners dealing with osteoporosis, Kim highlights the importance of mechanical force and tensile pull on bones to strengthen them. She advocates for the use of FSM to aid in muscle recovery post-exercise, promoting sustained physical activity as a preventive measure against bone density loss. Advances in Medical Practice with FSM The podcast wraps up with an enthusiastic preview of the upcoming FSM Symposium, suggesting further learning opportunities for practitioners eager to expand their knowledge and application of FSM in their daily practice. The event promises to feature an array of fascinating case studies and scientific explorations into the mechanisms of different frequencies. For medical practitioners, this podcast episode provides a detailed and practical perspective on the application of Frequency Specific Microcurrent. By integrating the lessons shared by Dr. Carol and Kim Pittis, practitioners can enhance their diagnostic abilities, expand their treatment arsenal, and ultimately, improve patient outcomes. Whether dealing with scar tissue, chronic conditions, or improving overall patient care, FSM presents an innovative approach to modern medicine.

Interview with Upstate anesthesiologist Vandana Sharma, MD
Does your gut impact your seratonin levels? How much control do we have over our gene expression? I love this conversation with Dr. Tanya Paynter SO MUCH. She offers a treasure trove of information about the complexities of health and the integration between body and spirit. She specializes in migraines, and in this episode I share how a very long migraine was a physical manifestation of my spiritual awakening. Find a link to her free mini-ebook below! We dive into many topics on this episode: How different processes within the body impact seemingly unrelated systems - for instance, the impact of gut health on serotonin levels. All of the different facets of health which contribute to your migraines, i.e. hormones, diet, genetics. Epigentics, and the ability of turning on and off genes and how they function. The gut biome, how it gets damaged, and the impact on our immune system. How does spirituality play into your health? How might the lab results (blood) for someone who suffers from migraines differ from the traditional normal ranges?

Episode Highlights [04:10] Dr Kal's Career Dr Kal is trained as a sports and exercise physician. He oversees the medical needs of athletes and regular people. Through his work and experience, he observed that the severity of injuries could not predict the outcome. There were cases of minor injuries leading to terrible outcomes and vice versa. These experiences led him to learn more about the science of pain and work with the organisation Pain Revolution. [06:52] Why Pain is Complicated We're taught that pain is mechanical. But, bodies do not produce pain, per se. The body only produces electrical signals that our sensory nerves pick up. Your pain response is dependent on how much danger your brain thinks you're in. Injuries are not always proportionate to pain. Pain has physical, contextual and sociological contributing factors. Listen to the full episode to hear two stories about people who ignored — and created! — pain based on their circumstances! [13:42] How Pain Works Pain is more complicated than we think. Thresholds don't explain pain completely either. Your context plays a significant role in how you perceive and experience pain. There are other factors that contribute to you experiencing more pain, such as stress, living through a pandemic, your beliefs and expectations. [14:52] Responding to Pain Lisa shares how there are various kinds of pain in her life. These include the changes women undergo at different times in their cycles. Learn to accept that there is a lot involved with pain. Understanding and acceptance will help you change your pain response. Pain can become a habit. Injuries create a direct channel to the brain, which can remain even after someone's body heals. This is called sensitisation. While there are medications designed to stop this direct channel, the best method is to develop habits for desensitising this pain pathway. [21:09] The Role of Distractions and Neurotransmitters We often experience higher levels of pain at night because nothing distracts us from the pain. This then leads to sleep deprivation and fatigue, creating a cycle of pain. People naturally develop intuitive strategies like distracting themselves from pain. You can transform your pain experience by manipulating your neurotransmitters through a re-adaptive program. Through this process, you change people's thoughts and actions. [23:51] Medication is Not Always the Answer for Chronic Pain Treatment The brain naturally contains morphine-like chemicals. Pain medication doesn't work for everyone. Some people are pain-sensitive and medication-resistant. Too much medication can also lead to addiction and negatively impact your health. [28:50] The Hardships of People with Chronic Pain People find it easier to empathise with those whose sicknesses are visible. People with chronic pain often end up in a vicious cycle of social breakdown because there's little understanding and compassion for the condition. Not only that, pain makes people more irritable. [31:06] Options for Chronic Pain Treatment Meditation as a chronic pain treatment is slowly becoming more mainstream in the medical profession. One method will not work for everyone as people relate to different things. It's vital to build an individualised program for chronic pain treatment or management. Remember that pain is not harmful. It's just a protective mechanism. It's common to hear that we need to learn to live with the pain, but this may not be effective for everyone. Tune in to the full episode to hear Dr Kal talk about his work with Pain Revolution and the graded exposure program. [34:56] Find What Works for You It's difficult for doctors to understand your situation and condition fully. It would be best for you to take charge of your health by doing your research. Question treatments and methods. Don't blindly accept answers. However, when you start to read online resources, you also need to be wary of false information. Be careful how you interpret science and research. [44:01] Seeking Science-Backed Treatments Your health is an interconnected system. Pain can be a signal for many things. Become more involved in your health; start with lifestyle changes. Be careful with placebo treatments. There are cases where sugar pills seem to work because the brain believes that they will. Placebo treatments' effectiveness will wane eventually and lead people to seek more aggressive types of interventions. What's most important is understanding what methods work, their benefits and safety concerns before applying anything. [47:24] The Pain Revolution Approach Learn how pain works. There are a lot of reliable resources available that you can consult. Pain Revolution has an annual outreach cycling tour. They also have a two-year course for local pain educators. Dr Kal hopes for the community to grow and focus on non-interventional techniques for chronic pain treatment. Know that you can adapt to pain. There is a way to recover. 7 Powerful Quotes ‘I like to think of pain in terms of not causes but contributors. The physical side is important… but it's only one contribution of many.' ‘By just getting people to conceptualise their pain properly, we can make a difference.' ‘The best model exists for understanding pain is that anytime we feel pain, or for that matter, all the sensations we feel, which are essentially produced by our brain, there are a lot of things going on at the same time.' ‘When pain persists, it takes a lot less contribution from the physical component to produce the same pain. Sometimes, no contribution at all and people remain in pain.' ‘I think the key thing is to try and avoid being too passive in your own health because reliance on external fixes can be a problem. A lot can be achieved by lifestyle changes.' ‘The people who do well in things like pain or recovery from injuries are often the people who have elected not to listen to the things they have been told.' ‘If you've got a problem, you just need to create that adaptation pathway for yourself, which doesn't just involve the injury.'

“Pain is disorienting. It changes you in ways that you never saw coming. Chronic pain, the kind that you think about all the time, becomes a part of who you are… There’s not always a smile behind the smile, but there’s a reason for my smile.” Dealing with a chronic condition such as pain or illness is a battle faced by many people – a battle often fought alone. Struggling with daily pain can be disorienting; it can be debilitating, but it can also drive you to Jesus. At the height of his career in the health and fitness industry, Jimmy Peña encountered sudden health challenges which he never would have predicted for his life. As he unexpectedly lost his abilities, he also suffered the loss of identity. However, through his struggles he found wholeness in Christ. But now, as a result of his previous health challenges, Jimmy faces a new battle with chronic pain and insomnia. Listen as he shares how he manages his pain, where he finds hope, and his encouragement for others facing similar struggles.
