REBT for Pain Management and Exercise - Counselling Skills Feedback In Episode 338 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', we explore the essential and sensitive topic of supporting suicidal clients – discussing how therapists can respond ethically and effectively, including risk assessment and safety planning. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ruth Hill about her lecture on REBT for pain management and exercise – blending cognitive therapy with physical wellbeing to support client recovery. And lastly, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken discuss the importance of receiving and using counselling skills feedback – helping you get the most from peer observations and strengthen your skills in training. Supporting Suicidal Clients [starts at 03:29 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken discuss the sensitive but important issue of supporting suicidal clients, and how to respond appropriately in therapy. Key points discussed include: Suicidal ideation can range from passing thoughts to detailed planning. All expressions should be taken seriously. Risk factors include mental health diagnoses (e.g. depression, bipolar disorder), substance abuse, previous attempts, bereavement, and neurodivergence (particularly autism). Warning signs may present as hopelessness, withdrawal, giving away possessions, or even sudden mood improvements. Therapists should feel confident in: Asking direct, nonjudgmental questions Assessing risk through clarity on plans and means Creating collaborative safety plans with clients Intervention may include providing helpline details, referring to a GP, or involving other services – guided by your therapeutic contract. Documentation, supervision, and appropriate CPD are all essential to ensure ethical and competent practice. REBT for Pain Management and Exercise [starts at 42:15 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ruth Hill about her lecture on REBT (Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy), and how it can be used to support pain management and exercise. The key points of this conversation include: REBT explores irrational beliefs and helps clients reframe unhelpful thoughts (e.g. “I can't cope with this pain” becomes “I don't want this pain, but I can cope with it”). Beliefs around pain often increase suffering and decrease motivation. Therapists can help clients notice and challenge cognitive distortions like catastrophising, black-and-white thinking, and mind-reading. Avoidance and guarding behaviour can worsen pain and increase deconditioning. Exercise can be reintroduced gently and collaboratively. Therapists should explore client history around movement – school PE experiences, family values, or previous injuries can shape limiting beliefs. Exercise doesn't have to mean running a marathon – it could mean stretching, walking, or visualising movement to reconnect mind and body. Counselling Skills Feedback [starts at 01:05:57 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore how to receive and use feedback on counselling skills, a vital part of developing as a student practitioner. Key points include: In triad skills sessions, the “client” should give feedback first, followed by the observer. Keep feedback constructive – use statements like “I wonder what might have happened if…” instead of criticism. Use observation forms to stay focused – reflect on specific skills such as silence, open questions, or paraphrasing. Sandwich suggestions between two pieces of positive feedback. Not all feedback is right – look for consistent patterns before making major changes. Recording practice sessions can help spot what worked well and what could be improved. Feedback isn't just about ticking boxes – it's about deepening empathy, timing,

Knee pain can be managed with proper training and techniques. Isometric exercises play a crucial role in injury prevention. Diet can significantly impact tendon health and performance. As athletes age, training methods must adapt to prevent injuries. Different jumping techniques can affect knee stress differently. Warm-ups are essential to prevent injuries, especially as one ages. Cool-downs can aid recovery and reduce next-day soreness. Managing jump volume and intensity is key to longevity in the sport. Listening to one's body is crucial for effective training. Jordan has never used injections or stem cells for recovery. He emphasizes conservative management and load management for knee issues. Plyometrics should be approached with caution, focusing on depth jumps and seated jumps. Single effort jumps are preferred over multi-effort jumps to avoid knee strain. Lifting techniques should be adjusted based on individual comfort and pain levels. Muscle imbalances should be addressed by strengthening weaker muscles rather than focusing solely on balance. Footwear can significantly impact knee health; personal preference varies. Pain management during training can involve isometric exercises and adjustments in technique. Common tendon issues arise from excessive jumping without proper recovery and management. Weight training is essential for dunkers to prevent injuries and improve performance.

Coaches Justin, Amanda, and William offer programming, form coaching, diet coaching and more, here! In this episode of the Bacon Bibles and Barbells podcast, Coaches Justin, Bill, and Amanda discuss the roles of chiropractors and physical therapists in health and rehabilitation. They share personal experiences and insights on the effectiveness of these professionals, emphasizing the importance of individualized care, progressive overload in therapy, and the limitations of chiropractic adjustments. The conversation highlights the need for strength training in recovery and the potential impact of the placebo effect in treatment outcomes. In this conversation, the coaches delve into the complexities of back pain, chiropractic care, and the importance of movement and strength training. They discuss the physiological aspects of back pain, the risks associated with neck manipulation, and the origins of chiropractic practice, highlighting its controversial history. The coaches emphasize the need to identify quackery in chiropractic practices, the significance of movement and strength training in pain management, and the role of massage and physical therapy. They advocate for a holistic approach to health that prioritizes movement and strength over reliance on supplements and chiropractic adjustments. Takeaways Physical therapists are often utilized for rehab post-injury or surgery. The effectiveness of physical therapy can vary based on the therapist's knowledge and approach. Progressive overload is crucial in physical therapy for effective recovery. Chiropractic adjustments may provide temporary pain relief but do not create lasting changes in spinal alignment. Individual attention from a physical therapist can lead to better outcomes than cookie-cutter approaches. Pain management in physical therapy should not lead to prolonged discomfort post-session. Strength training is essential for long-term injury prevention and recovery. The placebo effect can play a significant role in perceived benefits from chiropractic care. Finding a chiropractor with a sports rehab background may yield better results. Elderly patients often require strength training rather than just range of motion exercises. Chiropractic manipulation can provide neuromuscular facilitation. Most back pain stems from muscle atrophy, particularly in the erectors. Neck manipulation is never appropriate due to associated risks. Chiropractic practice has a controversial history and origins. Identifying quackery in chiropractic practices is crucial for patient safety. Movement and strength training are essential for pain management. Massage therapy can be more beneficial than chiropractic adjustments. Percussion massage can help relax tight muscles effectively. Holistic approaches to health prioritize movement and strength. Lifestyle changes are key to reducing pain and improving overall health.

His internship at the University of Minnesota was a transformative experience. He faced multiple injuries that complicated his recovery process. Zach developed a personalized jumper's knee protocol based on research and self-education. Communication with coaches was crucial for managing his injury and training. He critiqued traditional physical therapy methods for being too standardized and ineffective. Zach found success in using specific exercises that targeted his knee pain. He emphasized the psychological impact of dealing with chronic pain and injury. Zach's experience led him to help others with similar injuries through education and support. He believes in the importance of critical thinking in rehabilitation and recovery. Zach had to gauge his pain threshold during activities. Initial sharp pain in the knee indicated a possible partial tear. Tendinopathy symptoms developed over time with different sensations. Isometrics provided pain relief for Zach for several months. Athletes often face resistance from trainers when seeking alternative rehab methods. Zach's recent knee injury was a result of heavy eccentric loading. Effective rehab requires finding the highest possible entry point. Rehabilitation should focus on loading the muscle, not just the joint. Zach's approach includes using RPR and square one techniques. Rehab is about applying proven methods to individual cases. Ground substance in tendons consists of proteoglycans and water. Aging leads to a loss of spring-like properties in tendons. Pathology in tendons can develop long before pain is felt. General health significantly impacts tendon health. Weight gain adds extra load on tendons, increasing injury risk. High blood sugar can stiffen tendons due to sugar cross-links. Dietary choices can influence tendon health and recovery. Collagen supplementation may benefit tendon health, especially if deficient in nutrients. Environmental factors like circadian rhythms can affect tendon recovery. A holistic approach is essential for optimal tendon health.

Send us a textChronic pain affects more Americans than cancer, heart disease, and diabetes combined, yet it remains one of the most misunderstood and poorly managed health conditions.In this episode of the CareTalk Podcast, John Driscoll sits down with Jennie Shulkin, Founder of Override Health, to discuss how her personal experience with chronic pain led to building a virtual, team-based care model that can revolutionize pain management as we know it.
In this episode, Dr. Vishal P. Rekhala, an interventional pain management specialist, joins us to explore a game-changing approach to launching private medical practices through Independent Practice Partners (IPP). We unpack how IPP helps physicians go from concept to fully operational practice in as little as six months — without the usual red tape and overwhelm. Dr. Rekhala shares how a visionary group of ophthalmologists founded IPP to challenge the status quo and empower doctors to reclaim control of their careers. We discuss how this model is giving new life to private practice, especially at a time when many physicians feel trapped by hospital systems and insurance giants. As consolidation tightens its grip on healthcare, this conversation reveals how IPP offers a path to autonomy, financial growth, and better work-life balance — something many young doctors crave but struggle to achieve. We also spotlight the critical role of medical sales reps in this journey, acting as trusted guides who help physicians navigate the complex terrain of starting and scaling their own practices.

For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/maria-maldonado-smith Highlights from today's episode include: Manon Bolliger 06:10 it's like we may have aspirations and dreams and they gave us a direction, but at any moment in time where we're still agents of our own destiny, we can still say, wait a minute, now that I really know what it feels like, it's not quite right for me, right and shift it. Maria Maldonado Smith 08:19 The three questions are, what do I want? Yeah, it's interesting, because a lot of people don't, can't even answer that question for sure. You ask them, What do you want? I don't know. I don't know. The second one is, who do you want to become? Maria Maldonado Smith I also think that there's something beautiful in abandoning goals that no longer work for us. And I don't think that we talk about that enough, because so much of our focus has always been put on, but did you accomplish the goal? But maybe the goal was never meant to be accomplished.

Carolyn McMakin, MA, DC - contact@frequencyspecific.com Kim Pittis, LCSP, (PHYS), MT - info@fsmsports365.com 00:14 Weekly Check-In and Personal Reflections 01:37 Case Study: Guitarist with Neck and Arm Pain 06:35 Understanding Muscle and Nerve Function 24:10 Family Dynamics in Patient Care 33:09 Addressing Chronic Foot Pain 35:03 The Role of Fascia in Pain Management 36:40 Understanding Nerve and Fascia Interactions 40:28 Impact of Sports on Foot and Leg Health 47:21 Challenges in Treating Complex Conditions 50:16 Innovative Approaches to Stomach Issues 58:55 Upcoming Courses and Final Thoughts **Evaluating Complex Cases through FSM** Clinical scenarios often present with multifaceted symptoms, where the root cause might not be apparent. In such situations, FSM can be used to navigate these complexities. As discussed in recent applications, for a patient with persistent neck and arm pain, an MRI revealed disc issues at multiple levels. FSM facilitated a nuanced approach by specifically targeting disc pain, nerve pain, and associated facet pain. Practitioners are encouraged to consider not just the discs but potential secondary factors such as facet joints to provide comprehensive pain management. **Addressing Neuromuscular Factors** In patients with unexplained differences in muscle performance, such as grip strength discrepancies, FSM can be instrumental. Observations highlight the benefit of FSM in differentiating between fast and slow-twitch muscle contributions, as seen in musicians and athletes who display varying performance strengths without muscle atrophy. Utilizing FSM frequencies focusing on nerve and muscle integration can aid in balancing these functional differences and enhance performance. **Facilitating Effective Rehabilitation** Embedding FSM into rehabilitation practices allows practitioners to address both acute and chronic conditions effectively. By examining case reports, it becomes evident that frequency-specific approaches can significantly improve conditions like disc rehabilitation and muscle coordination. For instance, using precise frequencies for muscular and dural adhesions has shown promising results in restoring mobility and reducing pain. The use of video analysis can further complement FSM strategies by providing insights into habitual movements that may contribute to ongoing issues. **Holistic Patient Management** Consideration must be given to broader lifestyle factors and how they interact with the body's physical dynamics. Achieving objectivity in treatments requires practitioners to not merely focus on symptomatic relief but explore the underlying ergonomic and mechanical contributors to a patient's chronic state. For example, in musicians or other professionals exposed to repetitive strain, simple ergonomic adjustments are crucial alongside FSM treatments to maintain structural harmony and prevent recurrence. **Bilateral Symptoms and Central Nervous System Influence** Bilateral symptoms in patients often suggest a central nervous system component as a possible origin. Healthcare providers should consider treating the central nervous system and ensure the effective functioning of the dura and related structures. FSM methods can reduce central sensitization and improve neural dynamics, demonstrated by improved bilateral symptoms following targeted FSM therapy. **Managing Conditions like Plantar Fasciitis and Fasciopathy** Discussion highlights how tearing and scarring in soft tissues, compounded by repetitive stress, play a central role in chronic fasciopathies. FSM effectively addresses these issues by focusing on reducing tissue scarring and enhancing tissue vitality, thus improving overall fascia function and reducing chronic pain instances like plantar fasciitis. Implementing FSM in Treatment Protocols For practitioners seeking to integrate FSM within their treatments, continuous education and clever application are crucial. Diving deeper into functional mechanics and aligning FSM with current rehab protocols can facilitate more significant advancements in patient care. Complex cases such as those involving deep scarring or neuromuscular imbalances particularly benefit from FSM's tailored approach, allowing for holistic and longevity-focused healing in everyday practice. By weaving FSM into the fabric of treatment strategies, healthcare professionals can provide nuanced and comprehensive care, addressing pain and dysfunction at their roots. The true power of FSM lies in its ability to modulate physiological functions at the cellular level, offering unique therapeutic windows that elevate standard care approaches and support patient-centered outcomes.

Carolyn McMakin, MA, DC - frequencyspecific.com Kim Pittis, LCSP, (PHYS), MT - fsmsports365.com 00:14 Pet Emergency Experience 01:19 Physical Exam Demonstration 06:41 Understanding and Treating Pain 25:48 Functional Medicine and FSM 30:53 Challenging Patient Case 32:21 Understanding MCAS and Its Challenges 32:53 The Importance of Time in Patient Care 35:04 Dealing with Resistant Patients 43:36 FSM Advanced and Symposium Highlights 44:29 Looking Forward to Next Year 45:48 International Community and Case Studies 51:00 The Unique FSM Community Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) is a technology that has been gaining recognition for its potential to aid in various conditions by working with the body's natural processes. **Understanding Frequency Specific Microcurrent** FSM is a non-invasive therapy that involves low-level electrical currents used to target specific areas of the body. These currents are designed to mimic the body's own natural electrical impulses, helping to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and promote tissue healing. This therapy can be particularly beneficial for those struggling with chronic pain, sports injuries, and even complex conditions like MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome). **Pain Management Techniques** A central theme in pain management is understanding that every patient is unique, and so is their pain. It is crucial to conduct comprehensive history taking and physical exams to create effective treatment plans. This involves not only addressing the physical symptoms but also understanding the root causes and factors that might contribute to the pain, such as previous injuries, lifestyle habits, and stress levels. FSM plays a significant role here as it offers a tailored approach to treating pain and inflammation. With proper assessments, FSM can alleviate nerve pain and central sensitization - conditions where the nervous system becomes overly reactive to stimuli, leading to increased pain perception. **Combining FSM with Traditional Medicine** While FSM can be incredibly effective, it is important to recognize it as an adjunct therapy. It does not replace the need for traditional medical treatments when necessary, such as surgery or antibiotics. Rather, FSM complements these treatments, potentially enhancing recovery and reducing side effects. **Setting Realistic Goals and Expectations** For anyone considering FSM treatment, setting realistic goals is paramount. Healing, especially from conditions like MCAS or chronic pain, is a journey. It requires dedication not just from the healthcare provider, but also from the patient. This includes adhering to recommended lifestyle changes, like dietary adjustments or specific exercises, to support the healing process. For example, with conditions that involve chronic inflammation, dietary changes such as reducing gluten intake might be necessary alongside FSM treatments. It's also crucial to manage expectations regarding the time frame for improvements, as some conditions may take longer to respond to treatments. **Education and Continuous Learning** Engaging with communities and networks through seminars and symposiums can offer valuable insights and new techniques for practitioners and patients alike. These gatherings provide opportunities to share experiences, learn about the latest research, and improve treatment strategies. **Conclusion** Navigating pain and healing is complex, but with therapies like Frequency Specific Microcurrent, there is potential for significant improvements in quality of life. By combining traditional medical practices with FSM, and by setting informed, realistic goals, patients can achieve better outcomes in their journeys toward health and wellness. Always consult with healthcare providers for personalized advice and treatment plans.
Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy 03:13 Understanding Shoulder Pain and Its Complexities 06:04 The Shift from Impingement to Rotator Cuff Related Pain 09:00 The Role of Imaging in Shoulder Pain Diagnosis 11:58 Common Mismanagement in Shoulder Pain Treatment 15:10 Loading Programs for Rotator Cuff Rehabilitation 18:04 Positional vs. Energy Storage Tendons 20:59 The Nature of Rotator Cuff Tears 24:07 The Tipping Point to Pain in Rotator Cuff Pathology 32:53 Understanding Rotator Cuff Tears 39:26 The Role of Exercise in Recovery 46:47 Pain Management and Rehabilitation Strategies 55:19 Exploring the Mechanisms of Tendon Pain 01:00:18 The Importance of Tendon Stiffness Takeaways Rotator cuff related shoulder pain accounts for 70-80% of shoulder pain presentations. Pain is complex and multifactorial, making diagnosis challenging. The traditional impingement model is being challenged in favor of a broader understanding of shoulder pain. Imaging often does not influence management decisions for rotator cuff issues. Corticosteroid injections provide only short-term relief and can have negative effects on tendon quality. Exercise-based management is crucial for effective rehabilitation of shoulder pain. The rotator cuff tendons are positional and strain less than energy storage tendons. Rotator cuff tears are common and can exist without pain or dysfunction. Age is the biggest risk factor for developing rotator cuff pathology. Understanding the tipping point to pain is essential for effective treatment. Rotator cuff tears are often associated with poor vascular supply and degeneration over time. Metabolic factors like diabetes and smoking can increase the risk of rotator cuff tears. Exercise can be as effective as surgery for massive rotator cuff tears. Expectations of recovery significantly influence rehabilitation outcomes. Education about the commonality of tendon tears can help reduce patient anxiety. Pain during exercise can be tolerated up to a certain level without adverse effects. Sleeping positions can impact shoulder pain and should be modified accordingly. Adjunct treatments like shockwave therapy and corticosteroids have limited long-term benefits. Tendon stiffness is important for efficient force transfer, but its role in pain management is still being studied. Understanding the psychological aspects of pain can enhance recovery from tendon injuries.

Loading the tissue is crucial for effective tendon rehabilitation. Education and communication are vital in managing patient expectations and outcomes. Isometrics can be beneficial but may not work for everyone. Pain management in rehab is nuanced and should be individualized. Understanding the athlete's background helps tailor rehab strategies. Patellar tendinopathy presents differently in various athletes and requires specific approaches. The importance of restoring quad function in knee injuries cannot be overstated. Reactive tendinopathy cases can often resolve quickly with proper management. The debate on acceptable pain levels in rehab continues, emphasizing the need for individualized approaches. Consider alternative exercises like reverse Nordic for knee rehab. Gradually increase load and time to fatigue the quads. Warm-up routines can significantly impact tendon health. Compression forces are unavoidable in running; manage them wisely. Psychosocial factors play a crucial role in tendinopathy recovery. NMES can be a last resort for irritable tendons. Maintaining activity is essential for athletes during rehab. Walking warm-ups can enhance performance and recovery. Tendon stiffness is critical for injury prevention.

Summary The video covers a conversation between Dr. David Rosenblum and Dr. Hamed Sadeghipour, discussing board preparation experiences and the current state of pain management practice. Dr. Rosenblum begins by announcing upcoming events, including a May 17th ultrasound course in New York City and his lectures at various conferences. He also mentions shadowing opportunities at his office. Dr. Sadeghipour shares his board preparation experience, discussing three main resources he used: Huntoon book (800 questions), Board Vitals (700 questions), and Pain Exam. He achieved notably high scores using these resources. Regarding his current practice, Dr. Sadeghipour describes working both in academic anesthesia (40-50% time) and private pain practice, managing four offices with four nurse practitioners. The discussion then shifts to the changing landscape of pain management, with both doctors noting concerning trends: increasing focus on surgery center procedures over office-based ones due to reimbursement differences, the challenge of maintaining competency in advanced procedures, and competition from non-specialists entering the field. They also discuss the future of the specialty, suggesting it's moving toward becoming a hybrid of neurosurgery and orthopedic surgery with traditional pain management procedures.

What if a simple molecule could revolutionize health and longevity?n this Salad with a Side of Fries episode, Jenn Trepeck welcomes Greg the Hydrogen Man, a molecular hydrogen therapy specialist, researcher, and the voice behind the popular YouTube channel Uprising 144k. Greg shares his journey of overcoming severe health challenges through molecular hydrogen and how this powerful antioxidant can optimize cellular health, reduce oxidative stress, and support overall well-being. From uncovering groundbreaking research in Japan to witnessing his father's recovery from arthritis, Greg dives deep into the science and potential of hydrogen therapy. He also sheds light on common misconceptions, warning about low-quality hydrogen products that may do more harm than good. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: (05:13) Greg shares his healing journey using molecular hydrogen (14:10) How Japan has integrated hydrogen therapy into medical practice(18:55) Greg shares his father's story of recovery from arthritis(27:00) Greg talks about the continuing research of molecular hydrogen (34:57) How does hydrogen create these positive results in cellular health(42:52) Quality is keyKEY TAKEAWAYS: Greg shares his journey of overcoming severe health challenges by incorporating molecular hydrogen into his routine. He warns about misleading hydrogen products, particularly hydrogen tablets, which may contain harmful compounds and alter water's pH in undesirable ways.Despite promising results and increasing research, molecular hydrogen therapy remains relatively unknown in mainstream healthcare. Greg noted that Japan has integrated hydrogen therapy into medical practice, while in the U.S., financial interests and misinformation may be slowing its adoption. Hydrogen is significantly smaller than other antioxidants, allowing it to reach deep into the mitochondria and every part of the body where other antioxidants cannot. This makes it particularly effective in combating oxidative stress linked to inflammation and various diseases.QUOTES:(11:08) “It's important to use hydrogen properly because it needs to be safe, but you want it to be effective. So we want it to work.” Greg the Hydrogen Man(21:41) “We don't realize the value of our health until it's jeopardized. Right? And then we realize how little these other things matter.” Jenn Trepeck(36:27) “They put hydrogen there because they had already seen that it was having a positive effect on all these medical conditions.” Greg the Hydrogen Man(37:26) “Inflammation is essentially the source of all sickness, illness, disease. It is oxidative stress, like the rusting of our insides.” Jenn Trepeck(40:04) “Hydrogen is the most abundant element.” Jenn Trepeck(48:51) “When we can increase the nutrient density and the way nutrients reach the different body parts, there's so much possibility.” Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramBiostack Over BiohackBecome a Member to Receive 10% Discount off H2 TabsNutrition Nugget: AntioxidantsWhat's Your Biological AgeGUEST RESOURCES:Uprising144K Hydrogen Man - PodcastGreg Hman - InstagramHoly Hydrogen Machine - WebsiteMy Pure Water - Carbon Distiller - WebsiteGUEST BIOGRAPHY: Greg the Hydrogen Man is a molecular hydrogen therapy specialist, researcher, and host of the popular YouTube channel Uprising144K. Struggling to find answers and overcome extreme depression due to his compromised immune system, tumors, autoimmune issues, gut problems, arthritis, wheelchair-bound immobility, and a severe heart condition, he began his journey to heal himself and discover hydrogen along the way. Studying the complex compound for four years, he implemented it into his health regimen and reversed his health challenges. Greg discusses the endless health benefits of hydrogen, how it helps protect against EMF radiation, topical application for skin problems, tumors, hormone support, COVID-19 and marketing tricks to watch out for when shopping for generators.
Do you suffer from age-related aches and pains that traditional stretching or medications won't relieve? Are you doing all the sports recovery things and still feel pain? It's possible that the cause isn't actually aging, but because your body is in a state of fight-or-flight. Tune into this episode and discover how simple posture adjustments and diaphragmatic breathing can transform your physical performance and well-being.In this episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck welcomes Dr. Amy Novotny, founder of the PABR® Institute. Together they explore a naturalistic approach to pain relief, stress reduction, and overall wellness. Dr. Novotny shares her groundbreaking work on how altering your breathing mechanics and ribcage positioning can shift the body from a fight-or-flight state to a state of rest and relaxation, helping to reduce muscle tension and improve physical performance. By addressing the autonomic nervous system this approach can relieve digestive issues, and decrease the impact of chronic stress, and this episode offers insightful strategies for relieving pain, improving sleep, and even overcoming trauma-related physiological responses—all without the need for traditional stretching or medications. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: (05:27) Amy shares her professional journey(09:47) The three main components of the autonomic nervous system. Amy explains the results of a patient changing their breathing mechanics(15:15) Amy explains muscle contraction and why it's worse with age and gives an example of how to relax the breastbone(26:47) What should you notice about back muscle tension (29:11) Belly breathing versus diaphragmatic breathing and how chewing and swallowing impacts your TMJ jointKEY TAKEAWAYS: Dr. Amy Novotny discovered that altering her ribcage position and breathing mechanics allowed her to shift from a fight-or-flight state (sympathetic) to a state of rest-and-relaxation (parasympathetic), significantly reducing muscle tension and enhancing her physical performance without traditional stretching or rehabilitation techniques.Dr. Novotny's work highlights how chronic stress and muscle tension, especially in the abdominal region, can contribute to digestive issues. People can naturally relieve physical tension, improve digestion, and even overcome trauma-related physiological responses by addressing posture and breathing mechanics.Unlike voluntary muscle contractions (e.g., lifting an object), emotional stress triggers involuntary muscle contractions that can persist unnoticed. Over time, this accumulated tension can lead to chronic pain, which is often mistaken for age-related discomfort.QUOTES: (06:11) “I realized if I changed my breathing mechanics, very different than breath work, but if I changed my mechanics of how I held my rib cage and how that affected my diaphragm, I could run eight miles in 55 minutes, get off the treadmill and not have to stretch.” Dr. Amy Novotny(20:45) “You must physically train your body to get in the correct position again.” Dr. Amy Novotny(28:51) “There are specific techniques that can help us hone that interoception.” Jenn Trepeck(33:52) “Diarrhea, constipation, all those types of things as we know, are also connected to trauma." Jenn Trepeck.(34:45) “I'm a big fan of playing with it. See what happens. Because what do we have to lose?” Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramReawaken Your Health Podcast - Guest: Jenn Trepeck GUESTS RESOURCES:Dr. Amy Novotny - FacebookDr. Amy Novotny - LinkedInDr. Amy Novotny - InstagramDr. Amy Novotny - TwitterPABR Institute - WebsiteDr. Amy Novotny - YouTubeGUEST BIOGRAPHY:Dr. Amy Novotny founded the PABR® Institute with the mission to provide pain, stress and anxiety relief to those who seek a naturalistic form of treatment when other treatment methods have fallen short.

In this episode of the Addict to Athlete podcast, Coach Blu Robinson engages with Dr. Mark Hrymoc, an addiction psychiatrist, to discuss the evolving landscape of addiction treatment, particularly focusing on Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT). They explore the importance of integrating mental and physical health in recovery, the duration of care needed for individuals struggling with addiction, and the risks associated with rapid detoxification. Dr. Hrymoc explains how Suboxone works in the brain to help stabilize patients and addresses the mixed data surrounding cannabis as a treatment option. The conversation emphasizes the need for a compassionate, individualized approach to addiction recovery, highlighting the importance of destigmatizing medication use in treatment. In this conversation, Dr. Mark Hrymoc discusses the evolving landscape of psychiatric treatments, particularly focusing on psychedelics and ketamine. He emphasizes the importance of understanding co-occurring disorders and the psychological aspects of pain management. The discussion also touches on the future of non-addictive pain medications and the significance of building trust in treatment relationships. Dr. Hrymoc advocates for open communication between patients and healthcare providers to foster effective treatment outcomes. Takeaways MAT offers a new perspective on addiction treatment. Combining medication and therapy yields the best results. Addiction is a chronic disease with no cure. Long-term relationships with clients are crucial for recovery. Rapid detox can be dangerous and should be approached with caution. Suboxone helps stabilize patients without the high of other opioids. Cannabis has mixed results in treating mental health issues. Destigmatizing medication-assisted treatment is essential. Every family has someone affected by addiction. Individualized treatment plans are key to successful recovery. Psychedelics are being researched for various psychiatric conditions. Ketamine is effective for treatment-resistant depression and anxiety. Understanding the timeline of addiction and mental health issues is crucial. Pain perception is influenced by both physical and psychological factors. 00:00- Introduction to Addiction and Recovery 01:55- Understanding Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) 07:28- The Intersection of Mental and Physical Health in Recovery 10:41- The Duration of Care in Addiction Recovery 14:28- The Risks of Rapid Detox and Medication Management 18:01- How Suboxone Works in Addiction Treatment 21:47- Exploring Harm Reduction and Future Treatment Trends 23:57- The Evolving Landscape of Psychedelics in Psychiatry 26:20- Ketamine as a Treatment for Depression 28:56- Navigating Co-Occurring Disorders 32:56- The Future of Non-Addictive Pain Medications 36:37- Understanding Pain: The Psychological Component 41:58- Building Trust in Treatment Relationships Please join Addict to Athlete's Patreon support page and help us turn the mess of addiction into the message of sobriety! https://www.patreon.com/addicttoathlete Please visit our website for more information on Team Addict to Athlete and Addiction Recovery Podcasts. https://www.AddictToAthlete.org Join the Team!
