Chiropractor Dr. Kerry Lilley’s podcasts  https://m.youtube.com/@HealthyByChoicePodcast

Dr. Kerry and her journey to becoming interested in the holistic approach to health and wellness and the preventative path to pain-free living.  She says: “Natural solutions to everything. Health(y) is a choice. You Hold the Power to Heal.”

In Dr. Kerry’s first podcast… at 13 minutes and 10 seconds into the podcast … ” ….I always believed that there is a natural solution or treatment to anything having to do with the body…   I truly believe that disease starts in the gut… and prevention is always the strongest medicine… what that has in common with chiropractic … is prevention”

Dr. Kerry Lilley has 2 offices – in Benicia and in El Cerrito, California https://chiropracticbenicia.com/

Stephanie Wilger says:

“As an internal organ and reproductive organ specialist, I feel the way your internal organs, tissues, fluids, energy, bones are responding, and gently assist to coordinate them for better communication and function.  You relax and let go of tensions, stored emotions, becoming more vibrant, more yourself.  Adhesions and scar tissue:  from C-sections, surgery, accidents, are also released for more energy flow and movement.”

Dr. Victoria Sweet says:

“I went to Stanford and majored in mathematics, minored in classics. I was always split between science and the humanities. Then I started a PhD program at Harvard in psychology, but realized that medicine would work better for me than basic research. Because to be a good doctor you have to be a scientific humanist and a humanistic scientist.

“Getting a grip on pain and the brain – Professor Lorimer Moseley – Successful Ageing Seminar 2013?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5p6sbi_0lLc

Professor Lorimer Moseley says:

“What we now understand about pain.

“The mechanisms that cause us to change in a good way can also cause us to change in a way that makes our lives more difficult and more unpleasant.

“If you have a brain, you will experience pain. If you don’t have a brain, you won’t experience pain.

“We feel pain in our body, and, we feel it in a particular location, but, it is impossible to feel pain without a brain, and, it is completely possible to feel pain without the body part.”

 *   *   *   *   *   *   *   *   *   *   *   *

Danielle Rosenman, M.D. says:

“The brain changes itself constantly throughout our entire lives. All of our experience changes the brain.

“Everything that we experience, think, feel, believe, and learn changes the physical structure of the brain, the chemicals in the brain, and electricity in the brain.

“This ability of the brain to change is called neuroplasticity.

“Neuroplasticity lets us learn through our entire lives.  The more often we repeat a task, the better we learn it. Repetition helps us learn things like reading, adding numbers, or playing a musical instrument. We often call this type of learning ‘practice’.”

During neuroplasticity coaching, Dr. Danielle Rosenman instructs:  “Smile for yourself and talk out loud to your brain. When you learn to talk to your brain, you are opening up a new life.”

Loduskia (Dusky) Pierce, LMFT says:

Hi I’m Dusky. Welcome to my world of wonders.

I’m so glad to share with you some discoveries about our planet, its inhabitants and the universe that I have found to be awesome, funny, or just plain weird.

Did you know that spending time feeling appreciation or amusement is good for us? The more we purposely tune into moments of positive experience, the easier it becomes to notice them because we have literally made changes in our brain circuitry. This website is my way to immerse my brain in wondrous things.

As a psychotherapist with an office in Oakland, California and also seeing clients on Zoom, every day I’m aware of the impact that brain circuitry makes, creating our habits of mind and feelings. Learn more about my therapy practice.

Otherwise, have a great time wandering through the world’s wonders.

Enjoy!

“Smiling and Brain Chemicals: The Science Behind Your Happy Face”
NeuroLaunch editorial team
August 22, 2024

… The simple act of smiling, whether genuine or forced, can set off a cascade of neurochemical reactions that profoundly influence our mood and overall well-being….

[ Le simple fait de sourire, qu’il soit sincère ou forcé, peut déclencher une cascade de réactions neurochimiques qui influencent profondément notre humeur et notre bien-être général…. ]

At the heart of this chemical symphony are two key players: endorphins and dopamine. These neurotransmitters, often referred to as “feel-good” chemicals, play crucial roles in regulating our emotions, motivation, and pleasure responses. While we often associate their release with more intense activities like exercise or thrilling experiences, mounting evidence suggests that the humble smile might be a powerful trigger for these mood-enhancing molecules….

No new injury but still have awful pain? We experience pain because we have a Brain. Neuroplastic Pain Treatment.

Aucune nouvelle blessure, mais toujours une douleur atroce ? 
Nous ressentons la douleur parce que nous avons un cerveau.

Traitement neuroplastique de la douleur.

Hello, Everyone   / Bonjour à tous 

Dr. Michael Moskowitz and Dr. Marla Golden and their team have created new beautiful graphics – education on the brain

Images are from https://www.neuroplastix.com/

Le Dr Michael Moskowitz, le Dr Marla Golden et leur équipe ont créé de nouveaux graphiques magnifiques -  éducation sur le cerveau

Ces images proviennent de https://www.neuroplastix.com/

How does pain get from here to here?

How does the Brain work?

Comment la douleur passe-t-elle d’ici à là ?
Comment fonctionne le cerveau ?

Example  /  Exemple

Brain – Fractured Femur Bone – Spinal Cord

Cerveau – Fracture du fémur – Moelle épinière

On page 4 of workbook TRANSFORMING THE BRAIN IN PAIN: NEUROPLASTIC TRANSFORMATION,

Dr. Michael H. Moskowitz  and Dr. Marla D. Golden enlighten:

“Without your brain, there is no pain. Your brain doesn’t just receive information from your body, but sends directions back out to tell your body what to do.

“Your brain ‘reads’ everything going on in your body 30 times a second for your entire life.

“The adult brain changes throughout our lives based upon the information it receives from our bodies.

“We only experience pain when the electrical signals reach the thinking part of our brains.”

“Nous ne ressentons la douleur que lorsque les signaux électriques atteignent la partie pensante de notre cerveau“

“This is why during surgery, when general anesthesia shuts down the thinking part of the brain, the person doesn’t feel pain.”

“C’est pourquoi, pendant une opération chirurgicale, lorsque l’anesthésie générale désactive la partie pensante du cerveau, la personne ne ressent aucune douleur.”

And… Dr. Moskowitz and Dr. Golden say: “The more sensation each part of your body has, the bigger the image of that body part in your brain (page 4 of workbook) … Shrink the pain map by flooding the brain using:

…thoughts, images, senses, memories, soothing emotions, movement, beliefs.” (page 13 of  their workbook) 

EDUCATION -  Change the Brain; Relieve the Pain; Transform the Person

ÉDUCATION -  Changer le cerveau ; soulager la douleur ; transformer la personne

Acute pain.  Chronic /Persistent pain.

Douleur aiguë.  Douleur chronique / persistante.

Lecture One:  Brain Basics

Lecture Two: Building the New Brain

Lecture Three: Pain and Mood–It’s a Brain Thing

          

Lecture Four:  Brain, Pain, Beliefs and Pleasure

https://www.neuroplastix.com/_files/ugd/579dba_ddcb7fc52464458e881c698768402539.pdf

Page 14 in Lecture Four:

Every pain treatment alters the brain

There is no peripheral treatment

Pain is only perceived in the cerebral cortex

La douleur n’est perçue que dans le cortex cérébral.

If pain processing is not reduced there, pain cannot be
decreased

Pain can be successfully treated from the periphery to alter
brain-based pain processing or from the brain to alter
peripheral processes

Ultimate successful treatment of persistent pain must alter the
constantly cycling brain/body loop

NO pain   / PAS de douleur
