Join us as we delve into the often-overlooked connection between trauma and chronic pain. Our guest, Cindy Perlin, a social worker, sheds light on how unresolved trauma contributes to chronic pain and why this crucial link is frequently ignored by health care providers. We’ll explore the findings of the Kaiser Permanente ACE study, common misconceptions, and the effectiveness of traditional pain treatments. Cindy will also discuss innovative therapies like energy psychology and neurofeedback, and share strategies for individuals to manage trauma-related pain.
