Pain Sucks Episode 029 – Ice or Heat?  Or Both? show art Pain Sucks Episode 029 – Ice or Heat? Or Both?

The Pain Sucks Podcast

Age old question when it comes to pain. Dr. Justin and I break it down to the most simplistic form for you to know which and when. Ice better on acute (just happened) injuries and best for joints Heat better on muscles (moist heat is better so add a moist towel if you have a dry heating pad) Heat before activity and ice after. Sometimes going back and forth is the answer. And sometimes nothing is best But it’s not one size fits all and everyone is different However, the answers are in this episode. So, like and subscribe and comment away as we love to hear from you.

Pain Sucks Episode 024 - 1 Tablespoon of SCT Oil is my secret to handling inflammation from a herniated disc show art Pain Sucks Episode 024 - 1 Tablespoon of SCT Oil is my secret to handling inflammation from a herniated disc

The Pain Sucks Podcast

Oh my goodness This is a lifesaver for inflammation and disc herniation pain and other pains. You have been asking me for some super simple practical things to do. Here is one of my favorites Inflammation is the enemy. Not the disc. I’ll keep preaching that over and over until you get that. Lol Handling inflammation can happen in a variety of ways. One of the ways is getting your body to use fat for energy. Known as ketosis (a video on another day) the body is in a place to make massive amounts of energy by using the fat molecules of food and creating ketones that help heal inflammation....

Dr. Jim has been in private practice for over 25 years.  He has spent decades of learning and understanding how the body gets programmed and how we can re-program our minds and nervous systems and thus our lives to move towards what we want.

He has also dealt with 4 herniated discs in his neck along with some other diagnosis this last year but has created amazing healing!

We are just energetic beings having a physical experience.  The smallest parts of our cells are just energy that vibrate and have frequencies. 

Our thoughts cause vibrations and frequencies proven through science.  Our thoughts can influence our body through vibration and frequency. 

These thoughts then program our subconscious mind.

Science shows the programming of our mind started in the womb with our mothers’ choices.  When we were born, we were already pre-programmed to respond to life. 

How do we get programmed?

FEELINGS and EMOTIONS create beliefs.  These beliefs then get hardwired.

When we hardwire,  the neural connections in the brain joining together.  The brain is neuroplastic which means it adapts to feelings and emotions and creates pathways which then create physiology. 

Think of having a police car behind you turn on the lights.  How do you feel?  Even if it’s not you being pulled over you still create physiology based off beliefs which came from feelings and emotions about speeding and being pulled over.  You were wired!

All these wirings are like tapes or CD’s playing in the background.  So, when you see a stimulus that activates the tape it creates physiology. 

Playing these tapes over and over strengthens the pathway thus the physiology.

Any stimulus can trigger the tape because the body is now hardwired to see that stimulus and play the tape associated with the programming we’ve done in our lives.

How do we re-wire this process for healing.

  1. Understand the here and now but see the future.  That alone confuses the tape playing and can change physiology in the moment.  Gratitude, Love, Joy are all emotions of seeing the future and the here and now that can help.
  2. The body is always healing. So then how do you create it?  By knowing it’s already done even if it’s not present yet!  A cut will heal on the hand.  We know that. It just may not be done yet!

New research shows it takes 80 days to rewire (not the 21 we originally were taught). 

Where do we start to get out of pain?

  1. Find one thing on your body you do like.  Love that.  Immediately that re directs attention.
  2. Understanding the body doesn’t understand or process negatives so to heal you must create a future of gain, not avoidance so you can make new tapes
    1. Don’t “lose” 20 pounds. Create a healthy 150 lbs.  See the difference?  What I’m gaining not losing. 
    2. Must create many of these “affirmation goals” and make them inspired by repeating them.
    3. Remember “I am healing” means I’m not done and is negative. “I am healed” is how we re-program.  Also, you may say it but not feel it.  But “I am healed” in the little moments of wins creates momentum until it’s actually now in your life.
  3. Use a super high-quality frankincense essential oil (listen to podcast 003) while affirming goals. Frankincense is such high frequency energy it can raise your energy quickly.  Place a few drops on the hand and cover the nose and mouth and inhale.  Quality oils will stimulate the olfactory system and you can then recreate new tapes to play quickly because of the number of receptors in the olfactory system. 
  4. Use a cross body movement technique after this or during the above.
    1. With left hand grab your right ear. Right arm under left arm and grab left ear with your right hand.  Now holding this squat down however is best.  Sit in a chair then stand if you have to.  Even a couple inches are fine.  Repeat that squat 10 or 15 times.  Doing this ensures each nerve and cell is firing in your body while you are re-programming.  This creates new neural pathways quickly.  
  5. Dr. Jim recommends Transcendental Meditation as it has been proven to rewire quickly. 

Find a practitioner or training on their website.  https://www.tm.org/

  1. Belly Breathing
    1. With the chest completely still (cannot let chest move out or up) pull air in through the stomach and push out through the stomach.
    2. 5 seconds in, 5 seconds hold, 5 seconds out, 5 seconds hold
    3. As often as you want.
    4. Turns off fight or flight of pain and restarts healing.
