You have to treat the body, the mind and the spirit. And this is what we're doing in acupuncture.
Pain. It's something many of us deal with daily, but what if there were more natural ways to manage it? This episode of 'The Wellness Connection' dives into just that. Radhia Gleis and Peter McCarthy bring in Dr. Rey Ximenes, an expert in pain management, to share his insights on holistic approaches to chronic pain. Dr. Ximenes, who's got credentials in everything from acupuncture to addiction medicine, breaks down how a multi-disciplinary approach can make a real difference.
Ever heard of box breathing? Dr. Ximenes explains how this simple technique can trigger alpha waves in your brain, promoting calm and reducing pain. He also touches on the benefits of acupuncture and why treating the whole person—body, mind, and spirit—is crucial for effective pain management. But it's not just about managing symptoms; Dr. Ximenes emphasizes the importance of addressing the root causes of pain. Stress, poor diet, and other factors can mess with your neurotransmitters, amplifying pain.
The episode also sheds light on the role of vitamins and minerals like vitamin C and selenium in pain relief. And let's not forget the hot topic of drug price gouging. Why are essential medications so expensive? Dr. Ximenes calls for more transparency and affordable options for patients. This episode is a goldmine of information for anyone dealing with chronic pain or interested in natural health solutions.
