Chronic pain is an enduring challenge for many, often poorly understood and difficult to manage. My own journey began with persistent lower back pain that wouldn't ease with traditional treatments. It wasn't until an email from a therapist sparked my curiosity about the brain's involvement in chronic pain that I explored new avenues for managing my discomfort. In this episode, I aim to share my discoveries and insights, offering potential pathways for others experiencing similar struggles.
