Dive in this conversation with Dr. James Ghattas from Palm Beach Regenerative Sport and Spine. We delve into the cutting-edge world of orthobiologics, where Dr. Ghattas discusses treatments like Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), mesenchymal stem cells, and prolotherapy. Learn how a simple dextrose solution can stimulate tendon and ligament healing, and discover the powerful synergy of combining prolotherapy with dry needling for superior outcomes in musculoskeletal health.
Chronic pain can be a complex beast, and we tackle it head-on by exploring not just the physical, but the emotional and psychological dimensions as well. Dr. Ghattas sheds light on the often-overlooked aspects such as unhealed trauma and the need for support that can stymie recovery. Understand the neurological pathways of pain and how holistic approaches like chiropractic care, shockwave therapy, and meditation can be integrated into a comprehensive pain management plan to truly address both mind and body.
We then shift focus to the critical discussion on pain management and medication use. Discover the limitations and pitfalls of common pain medications like NSAIDs, and how improper use can disrupt natural healing processes, sometimes worsening chronic pain. Dr. Ghattas provides an insightful look into the anatomy of the spine, the implications of disc degeneration, and the resulting impact on spinal stability. This episode is packed with valuable information, offering a holistic and in-depth understanding of chronic pain and cutting-edge treatments that promise to transform patient care.
