Are you suffering from a lack of sleep, chronic pain, or other issues that keep you from living your best life? Although we want our bodies to run like beautifully, well-oiled machines, daily life takes a toll despite our heartfelt efforts. As a clinical psychologist, I've found that sleep and pain issues are common in nearly every age group – and they often start as early as adolescence. And the older you get, the more likely it is that you'll suffer from one issue or another that calls out for medical attention. Yet, in many cases, it's difficult to get more than a routine exam and a prescription before you're sent on your way. Is it possible to heal your body--to really get to the root of pain and sleep issues – so that you can feel truly alive? To help you live your best life, Dr. Fawad Mian, a renowned, board-certified neurologist who specializes in neurophysiology and sleep medicine offers us powerful tips and tools!
Topics discussed include physical pain, chronic pain, medicine, prescriptions, healthy living, regenerative medicine, healthcare, surgery, neurology, functional medicine, psychological health, somatic issues, psychosomatic pain, alcohol use, healthy diet, cannabis use, sugar, sleep issues, insomnia, PRP therapy, PRP injections, and healing.
