In this episode, we sit down with Mike and Alyssa, the visionary founders of the Align Mat—a cutting-edge wellness tool that uses Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy to support cellular health and restore balance to the nervous system. They share the inspiration behind the Align Mat and explain how PEMF therapy works to help the body return to its natural state of equilibrium. We dive into the science behind PEMF, exploring how different frequencies can be used to energize cells, reduce inflammation, improve sleep, and enhance overall well-being. Mike and Alyssa also talk about the importance of quality when it comes to PEMF technology—why not all mats are created equal, and what to look for in a truly effective product. Tune in to learn how aligning your body with the right frequencies can support deep healing, resilience, and optimal performance.Alyssa Blue is a non practicing Aerospace engineer that found the human body more fascinating than rockets. After suffering a health crisis in her early 20's she went on a decade long journey learning how to heal herself. Today as an FDNP, her research background shines, taking a deep dive to investigate her clients bio-individuality and walking with them on a path back to balance. Mike McPherson has a similar pain to purpose story being born with the gift of medical intuition. Having no resources as a child to understand his extra sensory perceptions, he suppressed his gifts for years. As a young adult, he was diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia and was prescribed medications to cope with severe anxiety and depression. After a happy chance meeting, Mike met a mentor that assisted him on a path of discovery into his gifts. Mike now guides others with subconscious trauma patterns back to wholeness through the use of multiple energetic modalities.  Out of a necessity to help more people than their 1-2-1 practice would allow Mike and Alyssa embarked on a 2.5 year journey of R&D to co-create ALIGN. It is the only Schumann Resonance tuned PEMF mat on the market. It is a meticulously crafted art piece blending ancient wisdom and modern technology to empower more people to tap into their own innate healing potential.SHOW NOTES:0:40 Welcome to the show!4:04 Mike & Alyssa's bios5:35 Welcome them to the podcast!7:15 Alyssa's background8:23 Mike's gift as a medical intuitive11:05 How they discovered PEMF13:20 What is PEMF?15:06 Supporting detox16:42 Difference between PEMF & Grounding17:51 Natural materials & fibers for grounding19:55 Stacking hacks with PEMF22:01 What is Gauss?24:51 What makes the Align Mat different?29:49 Frequency programs on Align33:14 Falling asleep on the mat!33:53 *PIQUE TEA*39:59 Amazing client wins!45:58 Reducing Biological Age48:42 List of Benefits from PEMF52:36 Contraindications for Align54:38 Renee's cat Max56:51 Why you shouldn't skimp on your PEMF device1:00:24 Final pieces of advice1:02:56 Where to find Align!1:03:55 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES:Website: Myalignmat.com - Save $250 with code: BIOHACKERBABESIG: @myalignmatEffecty - code: biohackerbabes for $50 offPuori - code: biohackerbabesPique Tea - 20% off for life + FREE frother & beaker!Our Sponsors:* Check out Effecty and use my code BIOHACKERBABES for a great deal: https://www.effecty.com* Check out Puori: https://Puori.com/BIOHACKERBABESSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

Summary At some point this medication may show its face on the pain boards.  Whether or not Suzetrigine will appear on the pain boards, all of us need to know about this new class of analgesic. Brought to you by NRAP Academy, home of the PainExam Board Prep Here, Dr. David Rosenblum delivered a comprehensive lecture about a new pain medication called Journavx (Suzetrigine). He discussed its mechanism of action as a NAV 1.8 receptor inhibitor, its clinical applications, contraindications, and dosing guidelines. Dr. Rosenblum emphasized that this non-opioid medication represents a new class of pain management drugs with no addiction potential. He also shared information about upcoming educational events, including ultrasound courses and various pain management conferences. The lecture included detailed information about drug interactions, safety considerations, and clinical trial results comparing Journavx to placebo and hydrocodone-acetaminophen combinations. Key findings from clinical trials showed that Jornavix achieved pain relief in 119 minutes compared to 480 minutes for placebo in abdominoplasty trials, and 240 minutes versus 480 minutes in bunionectomy trials. The recommended dosing is 50mg tablets twice daily, with an initial loading dose of 100mg. While the drug showed promising results for moderate to severe acute pain management, it did not demonstrate superiority over hydrocodone in clinical trials. Important contraindications include CYP3A inhibitors, and special considerations are needed for patients with hepatic impairment or those taking hormonal contraceptives. The medication should be taken on an empty stomach, either one hour before or two hours after food, and patients should avoid grapefruit juice while on this medication. For more infomation.... Chapters Introduction and Upcoming Events Dr. Rosenblum announced several upcoming events, including an ultrasound course in New York City on May 17th, 2025. He mentioned offering ultrasound and IV training for healthcare professionals, particularly nurses, ICUs, PAs, and hospital doctors. He also highlighted upcoming conferences including ASPN, Pain Week, Latin American Pain Society, New York, New Jersey Pain Congress, ASIPP, and EPA. Introduction to Journavx (Suzetrigine) Dr. Rosenblum introduced Suzetrigine (Journavx), a new 50mg tablet medication. He emphasized that this discussion was not sponsored by any pharmaceutical company but rather focused on educating about a new class of pain medication. He noted its potential importance as a future board examination topic. Mechanism of Action Dr. Rosenblum explained that Jornavx works by inhibiting the NAV 1.8 receptor. He detailed how the drug blocks sodium ions from entering pain-sensing neurons, disrupting action potential initiation and propagation. He emphasized that the drug is highly selective, binding over 31,000 times more selectively to NAV 1.8 than other NAV subtypes. Contraindications and Drug Interactions Dr. Rosenblum outlined various contraindications, particularly focusing on CYP3A inhibitors and inducers. He listed specific medications in each category and emphasized the importance of careful monitoring when prescribing Journavx alongside these medications. Clinical Trial Results and Dosing Guidelines Dr. Rosenblum presented clinical trial results showing Journavx's effectiveness in treating moderate to severe acute pain. He detailed the dosing guidelines: 50mg tablets twice daily, with an initial loading dose of 100mg. He emphasized the importance of taking the medication on an empty stomach and avoiding grapefruit juice. Q&A No Q&A session in this lecture

In the past five years, the use of immunotherapeutic agents for advanced cancers has emerged as a promising alternative to tyrosine kinase inhibitors and chemotherapy, making it an exciting time to be practicing oncology. In this episode, Dr. Tyler Sandow interviews oncology experts about the landscape of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and the current state of immunotherapy treatments. He is joined by medical oncologists Dr. Jonathan Mizrah, Dr. Lingling Du, and Dr. Adam Burgoyne, as well as interventional oncologist Dr. Zachary Berman. Physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants can follow this link to earn CME / CE credits for completing an accredited learning activity related to this discussion: https://www.cmeuniversity.com/course/take/125737 --- This podcast is supported by an educational grant from: AstraZeneca https://www.astrazeneca.com/our-therapy-areas/oncology.html With additional support from: Boston Scientific https://www.bostonscientific.com/en-US/medical-specialties/interventional-radiology/interventional-oncology.html --- SYNPOSIS Drs. Burgoyne and Mizrahi provide a primer on immunotherapy and explain how they communicate the principles of this treatment to their patients. Dr. Du discusses the Imbrave clinical trial and how recent studies have shown improved overall survival when immunotherapeutic agents are used, especially when multiple agents targeting various pathways are employed. When choosing between different regimens, the doctors consider factors such as the patient's underlying liver function, symptom burden, and prior treatments. Importantly, the doctors also discuss contraindications to immunotherapy, including a history of organ transplant, autoimmune disease, and poor performance status—all of which put patients at high risk for deterioration with this treatment. The treatment of patients with poor liver function remains controversial, as underlying cirrhosis may prevent the recovery of liver function. Dr. Berman outlines recent clinical trials studying the effects of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with immunotherapy. Finally, the doctors discuss the future of HCC treatment and the benefits of continued innovation in both interventional and medical oncology. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction to Immunotherapy 04:32 - Notable Clinical Trials 13:39 - HCC Etiology and Immunotherapy Outcomes 18:43 - Contraindications for Immunotherapy 23:05 - Adverse Effects from Treatment 25:14 - Combination Therapy 36:22 - Considerations for Immunotherapy Dosing 40:26 - The Future of HCC Treatment --- RESOURCES Atezolizumab plus Bevacizumab in Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma, IMbrave150 Trial (Finn et al, 2020): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32402160/ Tremelimumab plus Durvalumab in Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma, HIMALAYA Trial (Abou-Alfa et al, 2022): https://evidence.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/EVIDoa2100070 Nivolumab versus sorafenib in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (CheckMate 459): a randomised, multicentre, open-label, phase 3 trial (Yau, 2022): https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanonc/article/PIIS1470-2045(21)00604-5/abstract Nivolumab (NIVO) plus ipilimumab (IPI) vs lenvatinib (LEN) or sorafenib (SOR) as first-line treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC): First results from CheckMate 9DW (Galle, 2024): https://ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JCO.2024.42.17_suppl.LBA4008 Randomized Phase 3 LEAP-012 Study: Transarterial Chemoembolization With or Without Lenvatinib Plus Pembrolizumab for Intermediate-Stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma Not Amenable to Curative Treatment (Llovet, 2022): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35119481/ Find this episode on BackTable.com for more resources.

Rowan had a successful career working in the financial district of London for 15 years before similarly enjoying a spectacular burn out, break down and then a renaissance. It was during this medieval dark age of life that he found Functional medicine and realised that not only would it hold the key to unlocking his own health issues, but for others too.   He spent 7 years retraining in Functional Diagnostic Nutrition, several other schools of nutrition and then health coaching before studying Functional Medicine with Chris Kresser at the CIFM (now Kresser Institute). Rowan is also trained in the DUTCH test.

In this episode, Bahar Etminan and Danielle Renee from Bobbie Charles Clinics, explore the complexities of melasma and hyperpigmentation, discussing their differences, triggers, and effective treatments. They share personal insights into various solutions, particularly the Cosmelan treatment, which is highlighted as a leading option for pigmentation issues. The conversation covers the importance of understanding skin types and potential risks associated with treatments such as prescription hydroquinone. It also delves into the role of ingredients in skin health, the cost and accessibility of treatments, and the importance of understanding contraindications. Danielle and Bahar discuss combining treatments for optimal results, the evolving role of epigenetics in skin wellness, and the impact of sun exposure. Key Takeaways Melasma is often misunderstood and challenging to treat. Hyperpigmentation refers to increased melanin in specific areas, with forms such as sun-induced and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Melasma penetrates deeper into the skin, making it harder to treat, and can be triggered by hormonal changes and genetics. Cosmelan is an effective treatment for pigmentation, containing ingredients like Arbutin and Kojic acid. The skin retains memory of past treatments, influencing its future responses. Proper aftercare is essential for maintaining treatment results. Understanding individual skin types is crucial for effective treatment. The cost of Cosmolan treatments has risen over the years. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should avoid Cosmelan treatments. Combining Cosmolan with LED therapy enhances results. The skincare industry is moving towards less invasive treatments. Education on sun exposure is vital for skin health. Thorough consultations are essential for personalised skincare. Perimenopause significantly affects skin health and appearance. Cosmelan is effective for pigmentation but not primarily for scarring. Innovative treatments for intimate areas are emerging in skincare.

One of the trends in the world of marketing is people try to create a place where everything's available. That's the idea of the modern mall, the idea behind 7-11, they try to figure out exactly what people need and then they put it all in one place. So, Kṛṣṇa has done that for us. Everything that's necessary or consumable anywhere within the three worlds is available in one place—that's through Japa. But you don't have to drive there and get it; actually, you don't have to go far—you just have to sit down anywhere and you can get it. So, it's one thing to keep in mind because the mind gets restless, thinking that it wants something else and it's available somewhere else. But if we become acquainted with actual clear philosophy that everything's available in one place, at the root, at the center cause, then we can reassure our minds that you don't have to go anywhere else because you're not going to, you're just going to lose your place in line—just stay here. And the other concept I'll talk about in a minute, but we can remember that everything's available. As Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura says, there's nothing else to be had in the fourteen worlds except the holy name. So keep that in mind if your mind wants to go shopping elsewhere—we already have the one-stop shopping The shastras, and Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu emphasized so strongly how everything's included in the holy name. So that it's one time when we're chanting—it's not the one time—but we can give ourselves full permission while we're chanting to not think about going somewhere else. This is one of the ways to have successful japa: is to not divert the mind and go anywhere else. And if we're convinced that the holy name is all-inclusive—that everything I'm looking for is available in The Holy Name, it's cintāmaṇi—if I just stay in touch with the holy name, then I'll be transformed in a way that will be favorable. It's what everyone's looking for.

In this episode of the PFC podcast, Dennis and Winston discuss Methoxyfluorine, a volatile anesthetic agent known as the 'green whistle'. They explore its mechanism of action, indications for use, and practical applications in emergency care, particularly for managing severe pain in pre-hospital settings. The conversation emphasizes the importance of patient control in analgesia, safety considerations, and best practices for using Methoxyfluorine effectively. Takeaways Methoxyfluorine is used for procedural sedation and analgesia. It acts as an analgesic in low doses and anesthetic in higher doses. The green whistle allows for patient-controlled analgesia. It is effective for severe pain, particularly in burns treatment. Safety concerns include potential renal toxicity at high doses. Patient education and preparation are crucial for effective use. The onset of analgesia occurs within 6 to 10 breaths. Contraindications include altered consciousness and significant organ impairment. The device is designed to minimize environmental contamination. Effective communication with patients enhances their experience and satisfaction.

0-20: Chet Paulsen introduction and talking about the birth of Rockcuffs, understanding Blood Flow Restriction, design of BFR cuffs. Design problems are the main cause for safety issues. Truly dissecting research and understanding improper or misrepresented studies. Hormonal response to BFR, endocrine response, cause for DOMS. Using BFR for pain reduction for up to 24 hours afterwards.20-30: BFR reduces pain, improves strength and muscle size, improve adherence to use, uses for recovery. Ability to improve Vo2 Max levels. Importance of using BFR on both limbs.30-40: Targeting both sides with BFR as both limbs become affected after an injury/surgery. Average person does not know their 1 Rep max, can use BFR with minimal exercises with process of tightening and loosening to have benefits. BFR can have benefits during passive range of mobilization and joint mobilizations. BFR is not just mechanical it is endocrine, metabolic hack. Hormonal release is systemic, hypothalamus will put hormones in motion. Cells become more permeable to IGF Insulin growth factor. M Torque 1 is where it makes transition from blood stream to the muscle. BFR can have benefits for slowing diseases like Parkinson's due to angiogenesis process. Importance of using BFR post injury.40-50: Contraindications to using BFR. Safety and injury issues with BFR come from high pressure. Pressure changes when exercising, Arterial Occlusion pressure changes on muscle based on position of muscle and also from rest to exercises as blood flow increases. Venous pressure is 1/10th of arterial, veins are more compliant as they have a smaller muscle around them, hold 70% of blood volume. Venous occlusion happens between 20-70mm of pressure. Rock cuffs are rigid and equal efficiency pressure of 2 inches. Pneumatic cuffs tend to bubble and limited adequate pressure, too much pressure in the middle. Most pneumatic cuffs are shiny object tools. Understanding cuff size and efficient pressure to limb size.50-60: Pressure doubles under cuff during exercise, more pressure is not better. Time it takes for set up and ease of putting on cuffs being a factor. Understanding measuring venous pressure, difference between lean individuals and bigger individuals and use of pressure on cuff. Reinforcing again that the pressure in the cuff when the muscle is relaxed changes when the muscle is contracted. 30-15-15-15 with the rest breaks is the aerobic capacity of the muscle. The middle part of the last set, fatigue should occur. Reps should be consistent without a pause, pause means fatigue is setting in and too much pressure. Don't need fancy equipment to tell you how tight a cuff needs to be.60-70: Understanding proper placement and use of Rockcuffs, adjusting pressure, dosage of exercise. Arterial flow is never full occluded, do not need to fully occlude arterial flow. 18-20 minutes is max time of being occluded. Feedback and observation are best clues to understanding occlusion and fatigue levels. Lactate levels above normal for 10 minutes 3x week, hypothalamus will start it's process. BFR has to be consistent and used as a supplement to exercise not just one set of exercise or one time use during a week.70-80: BFR is a partnering with body system response not a punishment or trick system like most training programs. Calorie consumption is important for during use of BFR. Central aminos, hydration are key for building blocks IGF, and M Torque 1 process. Protein synthesis will be optimized with BFR, hydration and central aminos. Avoid caffeine for 90 minutes beforehand using BFR routine, Have caffeine after because it is a vasoconstrictor. Following BFR want vasodilation response after Un occluding. BFR allows to do exercise with less weight and less injury due to lower resistance and focus on form and technique. Understanding 30-15-15-15 and 30-30-30 regimens. Want to keep pressure low and regimens prescribed the proper way to ensure adherence and reduce DOMS. And more…

MONA is the acronym sometimes used to help us remember the interventions to consider for patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome or ACS. Morphine's use in the Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) algorithm. Why Morphine is helpful for patients with ACS. Contraindications and considerations for the safe administration of Morphine. Morphine as an alternative to nitro for patients with chest pain that take PDE inhibitors. Common dosing & administration of Morphine.
