Today, we delve into a compelling, systematic review that tackles the effectiveness of epidural steroid injections for conditions like cervical and lumbar radiculopathy and spinal stenosis. If you're a chiropractor, this is an essential listen as we unpack whether these injections truly offer relief, examining both short—and long-term outcomes. We'll explore the study conducted by the American Academy of Neurology, which scrutinized 90 randomized control trials, and discuss their findings on pain reduction and disability alleviation provided by these injections.Episode Notes: Epidural Steroids for Cervical and Lumbar Radicular Pain and Spinal Stenosis Systematic Review SummaryThe Best Objective Assessment of the Cervical Spine- Provide reliable assessments and exercises for Neuromuscular Control, Proprioception, Range of Motion, and Sensorimotor-Integration.

At 55 years old, Joey was living with 7 herniated discs and had been in chronic pain for almost 20 years. He suffered from:✅ L5-S1, L4-L5, L3-L4, L2-L3, L1-L2 (ALL 5 lumbar discs herniated!)✅ T12-L1, T11-T12 (thoracic-lumbar herniations)His pain first started in 2007, when a debilitating back spasm left him stuck on the ground, unable to move.For nearly two decades after, he dealt with severe back pain and sciatica flare-ups every 6-7 months. He tried everything to get better:❌ Epidural injections – only temporary relief❌ Physical therapy – generic exercises, no lasting change❌ Decompression therapy – expensive and ineffective❌ Inversion tables & back braces – no long-term results❌ Surgery consultations – told he'd be in and out of the hospital for lifeWith nothing working, Joey assumed this was just his reality—until he took a chance on the Whealth Limitless Program.How Whealth Limitless Changed EverythingAt first, Joey was skeptical (like most of our members) —he had already tried so much without success.But within just a few weeks, he started feeling a difference.And in a few months, he was completely pain-free for the first time in over a decade. Now, he's:✅ Back to playing golf after 14 YEARS away from the sport✅ Running his landscaping business PAIN-FREE✅ Waking up without thinking about his back pain✅ Living life without fear of flare-upsJoey is proof that you CAN heal—even with multiple herniations and decades of pain.

Robyn describes her first birth as a ‘weird, numb experience.' She was in the hospital, on an epidural, and slept through most of it. However, a family car accident became a turning point for Robyn, prompting her to make holistic health changes for her family. As she began to explore ways to take charge of their healthcare more naturally, her perspective on birth shifted. By the time she was pregnant with her second child, she knew she would give birth at home, with a midwife. (In fact, the midwife she chose had been a former guest on this show!) For her third birth, Robyn chose to give birth at home, unassisted. In reflecting on her birth experiences, Robyn shared with me: ‘I want to address the idea that a midwife or doula will save you during labor or birth, or somehow prepare you better than you can prepare yourself for birth. Instead, birth should be viewed as an opportunity to fully surrender and trust yourself.'

These are not the traditional things like 'keep moving,' rather she is sharing exact conversations to have with your provider to make sure your epidural gives you the pain relief you're trying to achieve and what to do if you're epidural is too heavy (which may lead to longer pushing time and increased tearing!).    Download my Evidence Based Epidural Guide!

Send us a textToday, we're joined by Ellen, a mum of two, who shares the story of her evolving birth journey. Her first experience was in the MGP program at her local hospital. After experiencing reduced fetal movement, Ellen was advised to have an induction. The induction led to complications: a fever, blood in her urine, and an accelerated heart rate for her baby, culminating in an unexpected caesarean. Ellen felt a deep sense of disappointment with her first birth experience.Determined to approach her second birth differently, Ellen took the time to educate herself, preparing for a more empowered experience. She chose a homebirth (HBAC) and found the difference to be profound. She was more present, more aware, and felt a deeper sense of control over her body and the process. Ellen reflects on how natural contractions were far more manageable than the synthetic ones from her induction. She also shares the intense afterbirth pains she experienced—pain so severe it caused her to vomit—but despite this, she felt an overwhelming sense of peace and empowerment.Ellen's story is a powerful reminder of the importance of self-advocacy, birth education, and trusting your instincts to shape the birth experience that's right for you.Links:The Great Birth Rebellion - Episode 86 - Internal Release Work with Fiona Hallinan.Birth After Caesarean - Hazel Keedle Mothers & Babies Report 2022Maternal and perinatal outcomes by planned place of birth in Australia 2000-2012: a linked population data study. Perineal Bundles - The Great Birth Rebellion Perineal bungles - The Midwifes' CauldronPerineal ‘Bundles' and Midwifery - Midwife Thinking - Dr Rachel ReedSupport the show@homebirthstoriesaustralia Support the show by buying us a coffee!

Hoy vas a conocer el relato de parto de Julia Crespillo, de Catellón, que nos cuenta sus dos experiencias. Julia dice que se le quedó una espinita después del primero porque llevaba demasiada epidural y no notó nada. No estaba segura si aguantaría el parto sin epidural, hasta que parió por segunda vez.

Lizzy did her best to not overthink birth and was very selective about where she got her information. She did the Transform Your Birth course and realised very quickly that she wouldn't be in control of birth and was able to surrender to that knowledge and feel calm about giving birth. At the end of her pregnancy she experienced a very itchy condition called PUPP rash, and chose to induce at 41 weeks. Her induction kicked into gear very quickly after they broke her waters. Her baby was in the posterior position, and so she opted for the epidural. Lizzy uses it wisely, and is able to let it wear off in order to push her baby out. Lots of wonderful learning from Lizzy's story. Links: Transform Parenting website Transform Your Birth Today Better Birth: Mini Gift Free resource: Medical Necessity vs Choice

Send us a textIn today's episode, we have the privilege of speaking with Jessie, a seasoned Doula based in Karratha, Western Australia. Jessie generously shares the profound wisdom she gained from her four unique birth experiences—three in hospital and one empowering free birth with her fourth child. Reflecting on her first journey into motherhood, she discusses how the prevailing narrative around birth was one of pain and fear, which led to unexpected interventions. Through her work supporting other women as a doula, Jessie came to understand that women already possess everything they need within themselves to bring their babies into the world. She takes us through her personal evolution, from hospital births to the decision to have a free birth. Jessie also opens up about D-MER (Dysphoric Milk Ejection Reflex), a condition where some breastfeeding women experience negative emotions just before milk let-down, during breastfeeding, expressing, or even when not nursing.Links:Jessie the doulaJessie's Website Birth Without Fear - January HarsheDysphoric Milk Ejection Reflex (D-MER) - Australian Breastfeeding Association Midwives' Cauldron - Breastfeeding aversion, agitation, D-MERSupport the show@homebirthstoriesaustralia Support the show by buying us a coffee!

In part 2 , I'm taking you back to my waters breaking (again?!) on New Year's Eve, I was told to stay in the hospital bed, Pitocin was pushed at shift change, and—something I've never shared before—I was talked into fentanyl (spoiler: there's a good learning point here). Add in a cervical lip being manually pushed back, and coached pushing so intense I popped every blood vessel in my face... and it's the "perfect" no-epidural hospital birth. __ Have a better hospital birth, join us inside of Unmedicated Academy ⬇️ unmedicatedgirlies.com OR DM me "enroll" on Instagram

Our beloved in house pelvic floor physical therapist, Hayley Kava, shares how her first birth experience inspired her career path. Her journey began with a hospital birth that she found to be less than positive, leading her to seek a more empowering experience the next time. Her second birth, also in a hospital, turned out to be a much more positive and fulfilling experience, but left a little to be desired when it came to immediate postpartum care. Finally, her third birth took an unexpected turn—an unplanned unassisted home birth after a precipitous labor! Despite having a midwife, the baby arrived before they could get there.

AKA the ONLY thing unmedicated about it was that I didn't have an epidural. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my first birth experience and sharing the details of what I used to call an “unmedicated” birth. Spoiler alert: while I didn't have an epidural, my birth was still FULL of interventions. I'll also share how this birth taught me valuable lessons and set the stage for my journey into birth work. Whether you're planning your own birth or just love a good story, tune in to hear the truth about hospital births, interventions, and what I wish I'd known back then. _

In this episode of the Atomic Podcast, practicing CRNA Alex Gorman discusses the dural puncture epidural (DPE), particularly in the obstetrical setting. By incorporating a spinal needle to confirm midline placement and epidural space entry, the DPE provides immediate objective feedback, reducing the likelihood of failed epidurals and improving patient outcomes. Alex highlights the technique's benefits, including faster analgesia onset and fewer complications like one-sided pain relief or hot spots, while addressing its risks.

¡NUEVO EPISODIO! Esta semana vas a conocer el relato de parto de Alba Pizarro, mamá de una niña de 4 meses. Conseguir el embarazo no fue tarea fácil, y en el proceso Alba y su pareja llegaron a un diagnóstico de oligoastenozoospermia por un varicocele. La recomendación de los médicos fue hacer un FIV con ICSI (una técnica en la que se inserta directamente el ADN del esperma dentro del óvulo). En su primer ciclo de estimulación, Alba consiguió dos embriones. La transfe del primero dio negativo, y por suerte en la segunda transferencia se quedó embarazada, y el embarazo salió adelante. Alba me habla de un parto inducido intenso y doloroso. Su historia tiene un montón de matices interesantes, y espero que disfrutes escuchándola tanto como yo.

Today Heidi interviewed Amy Lloyd. Here is a little more about Amy and this episode. In Amy's words: "I graduated nursing school in 2011 and started working in the NICU. I travel nursed and ended up in Denver, CO for 7 years. I mainly worked in the NICU but worked for Nurse Family Partnership for 4 years (an amazing nationwide program for 1st time moms that qualify based on income!)  I got married and moved to Asheville, NC in 2021. We got pregnant on the first try! I did the NIPT and found out we were having a boy! At my first appointment they mentioned I had a bicornuate uterus. Since hearing I had a higher rate of a breech baby I was pretty convinced he would be breech and I would have a scheduled c-section. “Normal” pregnancy. I felt really good. Worked night shift in the NICU until 39 weeks. I got COVID at 26 weeks pregnant. The recommendation then was to have a growth ultrasound. I had one at 34 weeks where they discovered the left side of his heart and aorta were small. I was referred to MFM in Asheville and then onto MFM and cardiology in Charlotte. I was induced at 39.2 at Atrium. I had a good induction…foley bulb, pitocin, epidural, AROM, pushed for 45 minutes. My baby immediately went to the NICU. His echo showed he had coarctation of the aorta and he had surgery at 3 days old! We were in the hospital for 2 weeks before coming home to Asheville. We experienced lots of feeding difficulties. He came home with a NG tube, had reflux, and a weak suck. I was basically exclusively pumping from the start. I weaned off the pump at 9.5 months postpartum. At 3 weeks postpartum I had severe abdominal pain leading me to be readmitted for IV antibiotics. They believe I had endometritis. My baby just turned 1 8/29/22. He is doing great and will continue to be followed by cardiology for life but hopefully should not need any further interventions!" 3 Key takeaways from the podcast that listeners will learn today: Flexibility Advocating for your family 3 Keywords that people would want to search when looking for content that you would provide in this episode: Congenital heart defect Epidural induction Exclusive pumping   Favorite baby product or new motherhood product? Boppy for baby. I usually buy my friends a nice pair of pajamas as everyone is usually focused on stuff for the baby! Summary of guest experience – Currently live in Asheville, NC. Graduated nursing school in 2011 and have worked in the NICU as a RN ever since. Also have my CLC. Please link your contact information for me to share in the episode.

On today's episode I am sitting down solo to share the candid details of my birth story of my beautiful daughter Amelia! I wanted to share my birth story alongside some details of my early days postpartum because when I was about to go through this experience, it was so hard to find podcast episodes and information like this of women who had hospital births, opted for an epidural and also an induction. And because I had a positive experience, I wanted to share exactly what it was like with you! This is a very special episode as I recount the raw emotions starting at 39 weeks pregnant leading up to Amelia's delivery, what I've learned about motherhood thus far and the unexpected things I've learned during this incredibly transformative time. I hope my story resonates and sheds light on the diverse and extraordinary experience of childbirth.

If you think Ballerina Farm means pigs with point shoes and tutus 1. that's really cute and 2. you're very wrong (unfortunately).Today we are diving into the world of ‘Trad Wives' and more specifically the world of Ballerina Farm which is both a brand and a woman. Hannah Neeleman is a mumfluencer, a mother of eight children and has amassed a huge 10 million followers on Instagram who follow her literally churning butter and collecting eggs from her chickens. Seems wholesome right? Wrong (kinda).Her charges include competing in a beauty pageant just two weeks postpartum, pretending to be poor but owning a $30,000 stove and a birthday present which is the stuff of nightmares (but that was technically her husband's fault). We unpack all. Plus, more of your lazy gewl stories.
