Do you want to know how you can influence your pain perception by simply rubbing your collar bone? Dr. Perry is back on the podcast talking about headaches and jaw pain. He is an expert on the lymphatic system, and he shares how these body regions are when it comes to treating pain. He describes how pain works in the body and how everything is deeply connected. Pain is a request for change and this form of protection is often not located at the place we originally feel it in the body. On the podcast he discusses the journey to find the actual source(s) of the pain, which as you can imagine, is far more holistic than modern medicine says it is. For example, one of his specialities is the lymphatic system, which he shows can have a link to headaches and jaw pain, which once treated can have dramatic and unexpected results.
