Mind-Body Techniques For Pain
Vitality101 Newsletter
Hello Reader,
Most pain can be effectively treated. The problem is lack of physician education and training in how to assess and treat pain. But by using a mix of biochemical (medications, herbals, and nutrients), structural, biophysics and mind-body therapies, most pain can be relieved.
Unfortunately, most physicians are only taught pain treatments consisting of Tylenol, antiseizure medications, and ibuprofen-related medications called NSAIDs. Unfortunately, though safer than being in chronic pain, NSAID medications trigger 50,000 excess and preventable US deaths yearly. I say preventable as research has shown that natural therapies, such as an herbal mix called Curamin®, is as effective as Celebrex in three head-to-head studies. Glucosamine plus chondroitin is also about as effective as these medications for arthritis.
Worse still, physicians are taught to resort to surgery all too frequently in situations where surgery is not necessary or helpful.
To be fair, there are times when standard medical treatments are prudent and can be life-saving and beneficial. But sadly, this is often not the case for pain management.

Lyme disease is the #1 growing vector-borne illness in the U.S. If you suspect or have Lyme disease, have unexplained symptoms, or have seen many doctors without getting answers about those symptoms, then this event might be just what you need.

At this summit, you’ll hear from over 40 experts, including Myriah Hinchey, ND, and Richard Horowitz, MD — leaders in the field of Lyme disease who understand the hidden ways it can impact your life. Together, they’ll guide you through the latest research, diagnostic tools, and natural treatment strategies that can help you find the answers you’ve been searching for.
I Am Pain Free Podcast
Dr. T recently joined host Rob Rene of the "I Am Pain Free" podcast for a half-hour discussion on treating chronic pain. In this episode, Dr. T shares his incredible journey from being a homeless med school dropout to becoming a leading authority on pain management, and offers his take on understanding and treating the various types of pain.
They discuss how to identify the root causes of different types of pain and the natural strategies for managing them, including Curcumin®, his popular vitamin powder drink mix, and the new PEA compound that's been showing so much promise in pain studies.
Q&A With Dr. T
Question:
Can fibromyalgia cause one's jaw to spontaneous click, especially when relaxing?
Answer:
Yes, absolutely. Fibromyalgia can make your muscles tighten throughout your body. That can include tightening the muscles used in chewing, which are the muscles in the area from your forehead to just in front of your ears above your jaw. If that happens, your jaw may make a clicking sound when it moves. Though this isn't especially problematic, it can be painful.
