Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1393414/open_sms] ORIGINALLY AIRED FEB 27TH, 2024 Chronic pain does not need to be something we "just live with".  There are healthy alternative ways to reduce and even remove chronic pain and Dr, Afton Hassett talks about how in this episode. Please share this episode around and make sure to rate/review, I will be forever grateful! In this episode Dr. Afton talks about * Her background and why she got into working with clients with chronic pain * What is chronic pain, the different kinds and the causes * How the mind plays a role in chronic pain * How what we love to do will help with chronic pain * Other alternative methods/strategies to remove chronic pain * Talks about her book “Chronic Pain Reset” And so much more… Dr. Hassett's bio: Dr. Afton L. Hassett is an Associate Professor and Director of Pain and Opioid Research in the Department of Anesthesiology at the University of Michigan. She is a principal investigator at the Chronic Pain & Fatigue Research Center who has over $14M of research funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Viewed as a leader in the field of chronic pain and resilience, she recently gave the Keynote address at the 2023 Pain Consortium Symposium on Advances in Pain Research for the NIH. While studying established treatments for chronic pain and developing new approaches is her passion, her frustration is that exciting research discoveries rarely make it to the people who could benefit the most. Thus, Afton’s mission was to write Chronic Pain Reset to bring evidence-based strategies from research and academic medical settings directly to people who live with chronic pain with the hope that they will gain new tools to lead more rewarding lives with less pain.
