How to Overcome Chronic Pain 1. Demonstration

[@mbordofsky]

This is one of the best explanations of what goes wrong in people with chronic pain that I have seen. Most people with chronic pain would be much better off watching these videos and instituting the suggestions that the speaker offers rather than coming to physicians like me looking for answers through medications or surgery. Great job Dr. Hansma!

[@ActiveLifeScientific]

Thanks Dr. Bordofsky! I am very grateful for your support.

I watch everything. Dr.Forest Tennant has the best videos. I've had severe disabling chronic pain for 20 years. I am down to 20 mg of opiod medicine, Methadone. 30 was too much, but 15mg makes me more disabled in pain. I wish I could agree, but it is a horrible situation. Methadone has let me live a more normal life and I can work parttime 4 hours. I am open to suggestions, but more pain is torture to us, let us be the judge of how much we can handle before jumping off a bridge. I have never abused my meds.

@@Laura-pi6ht It's a good explanation but it doesn't account for neuropathic pain which affects 5-8% of the population.

This video was literally a waste of my time wtf u mean his was a great video ur on something dude

[@falconpoptv]

Why do you offer surgery and medication then if you recommend something else here? Not judging you, just asking out of curiousity.

[@mittysmalls]

Thank you so much for this video. I’m currently 10 months post motor vehicle accident and only NOW from finding a good Physio and doing my own research and finding videos like this that explain actually what is going on as opposed to being written script after script of opiates

[@savannahgrey2528]

This is Neuroplasicity - do some research before you make your negative comments. It's real and it works.

[@utsaharya5463]

So true people just here are frustrated with chronic pain and don't want to try anything out. U need resilience guys it will work

[@zendavis3501]

This is neuroplasticity and opioid induced hyperalagesia. What he's saying is 1000% true.

[@paulhansma]

@@zendavis3501 Thanks for the support!

[@JZGreengo]

@@utsaharya5463 the people early on with chronic pain don’t understand, I’m 21, just hit the 11 month mark even had surgery and realized I can improve myself, I can get better by keeping my mind busy

[@soucmic]

Dr Hansma, After being in acute then chronic pain which have been moving around in my upper back and neck for 1.5 year, and totally lost in translation in term of diagnostic, I randomly found one of your video which was referring to Dr Sarno, bough his book, and I'm now going through it along with all the other ressources you are pointing towards. I don't know if the healing journey will be short or long, but what I know is that I'm finally on the good path because of you and I'm grateful for that. Thank you.

[@paulhansma]

Great new book: The Way Out by Alan Gordon.

[@paulhansma]

You are very welcome! Best wishes for your complete recovery!

Best explanation I've seen on pain

[@jacksalvatierra7959]

Hi everyone. I have chronic pain in my left hip since 3 years ago, but i need to find out something: even before i ve got this chronic pain i used to take 1mg of lorazepan to sleep, but now after i ve got this chronic pain, i still take the lorazepan, but i think the lorazepan is playing a role now in my pain, because, as soon as i take lorazepam, i don't feel pain,...after 30 minutes from taking 1mg of lorazepan my pain fades away, thus, my question will be : is a lot of my pain has become anxiety pain because of the lorazepan, because, somewhat it seems sometimes that my body would like to be on lorazepan all day....all this is weird. Anyhow im tapering in Lorazepan,by 10% until i get to 0,5mg and i think i will stop there. Any advice from first hand experience is welcome. Thanks a lot Raul in Spain now.

[@VajraYogini93]

Raul, google The Doc Journey, listen or read the book The brain that heals itself, do the brain retraining exercises and then you will be pain free without the drug. Educate yourself as much as possible on Chronic pain, how it starts and how it ends. You are greater than you think! More powerful than you know! and Unlimited beyond your wildest dreams!

[@theoneandonly668]

I’ve had Chronic pain for a long time… pain comes from poor movement patterns. That’s what my research has led me to believe. It’s just so hard to correct them.

[@paulhansma]

The Pain may be initiated with poor movement patterns. Fear can enhance it. Great new book: The Way Out by Alan Gordon.

[@buffalobill2874]

It is one hypothesis and not a good position to take when dealing with people in pain. My vulva pain isn't cured by being more active. Certain activities are moreish so it doesn't work out nor ring true for where masturbation rubbing and friction aggravates and promotes vulva pain. You have to resist and avoid urges in such a predicament because once aggravated this pain doesn't subside it sticks around. Returning to the activity never lessened the pain no matter how frequently repeated.

[@ianwalker1715]

What's the point of only showing 4 minutes?

[@peterwu8471]

All pain comes from the brain. True. Now what can we do? No info here.

[@gregcarnes80]

Well if I could only see what he is saying....

[@beckerdavid2]

This is more then presumptuous as it concludes the neurocentric model is without doubt. Like most folks that lack intellectual virtue of open mindedness and humilitas, this certaintici presenter stands in the way of real progress in pain care. He can debate me in public anythime.

[@paulhansma]

Not all forms of chronic pain benefit from retraining the brain. Some require medical intervention. Some are from conditions like bone cancer or diabetic neuropathy in which strong signals are still going to the brain. Fortunately, the majority of people with chronic pain, especially chronic pain at the site of an old injury that has healed physically, can be helped by retraining their brains.

[@Jojorocks23]

You need to do more research before making comments like this. For persistent chronic pain from healed injuries, he is bang on.

[@caseyrichardson9023]

What a joke. Ppl actually die from Extreme pain. Even the heart shuts down. Maybe if you stumped your toe or something. People that have bones that keep breaking over and over this does not work. 👎

[@paulhansma]

You are correct about stubbed toes and broken bones. Read The Way Out by Alan Gordon about lower back pain.

[@johnathanabrams8434]

This guy has absolutely no idea what he's talking about

[@spiritsquirrel525]

Another imaginary solution.

[@jrix3508]

Indoctrination!

[@caseyrichardson9023]

I’ve got intense pain for years and have never used pain pills for them. This is a total joke.

[@spiritsquirrel525]

Wrong. The pain does comes from the body!

[@bladerunner9129]

Wrong - all pain is generated in the Brain.

[@propisthedevil8792]

Pure quackery
