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
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....

info_outlineI’ve been dealing with a massive amount of stress just like everyone else has. I’m also freaked out by the new “unnormal” out there and trying to figure out how to make sense of it all as well as my own life, health, and business.
And within all of it I’m scared. I’m not going to lie to you. It’s scary from many angles.
And that added stress has added massive amounts of stress hormones to my system which has cause inflammation and has now made my back flare up and pissed off my disc and my leg etc..
What I’ve been learning is that our pain is mostly our emotional stress and our emotional state.
Dr. Sullivan in an earlier episode told us that after a few days our pain centers in our brain change from the place associated with the area of our body that hurts to the emotional center called the amygdala.
Now imagine this area storing all your stress memories and being bombarded now all day by the news and the other things you are dealing with now.
Welcome to the flare up as the stress is too much.
That’s what I’ve been dealing with.
So, here are a few things I’m doing to help myself right now.
- Gratitude journal
- Journaling my emotions
- Reading my Bible
- Prayer
- And something I had forgotten to do for a while is EFT (emotional freedom technique) in the form of something called Tapping.
Instead of telling you how here a link is to learn how. I promise it will help you dramatically.
