The human body possesses remarkable self-healing abilities that conventional medicine often overlooks when treating chronic conditions like fibromyalgia, IBS, and long COVID.
Many sufferers cycle through endless medical appointments, medications with diminishing returns, and growing frustration as their symptoms persist despite "normal" test results.
In this episode, Brehan Crawford, founder of Crawford Wellness and expert in traditional Chinese medicine, reveals how this 2,000-year-old medical system addresses chronic conditions through a holistic approach to infection, inflammation, and autonomic healing.
Whether you're dealing with persistent health issues, curious about alternatives to conventional medicine, or simply want to understand the power of herbal remedies, Qigong, and acupuncture, this conversation offers practical insights into ancient healing wisdom that modern science is finally beginning to validate.
"A very natural thing to do when we experience pain is to dissociate from that pain. Unfortunately, that makes us less aware of what the internal processes are in our body that are creating that pain, and then it's harder to address them." ~ Brehan Crawford
