No system in the body works alone, gets injured alone or heals alone. There is no such thing as an isolated injury in the body. There is no such thing as isolated healing. The opioid crisis has brought clarity that conventional approaches to chronic pain management are inadequate. Thus, the time to look beyond the ‘norm’ for how we can do better is now! Chronic debilitating pain is solvable in most instances with the proper skillset and patient participation. Discover techniques to achieve sympathetic/parasympathetic balance of the nervous system to reduce chronic muscle tension. Additionally, this session will examine how the abdomen relates to full body chronic pain issues and identify an elusive cause of chronic pain. Don’t miss this opportunity to expand your clinical skillset and improve treatment outcomes.
