#145 - Chronic Pain Management with Dr. Vania Apkarian and Dr. Melissa Farmer
Do you or somebody you know have chronic pain or recurring pain flare-ups? Have you ever wondered if there are techniques that might help rewire brain structure to improve pain outcomes? Join us for this Trauma Healing Learning episode, which features two of the leading researchers on the neurobiology of chronic pain, Dr. Vania Apkarian and Dr. Melissa Farmer. Together, we will gain tremendous insights into the science behind pain, and tangible practices to manage long term pain other than opioids and steroids. Here we go.
