Breaking Free from Chronic Pain with Dr. Alex Halario


Listen Later

More than 50 million Americans live with chronic pain, and back pain remains the number one cause of disability worldwide. Even more alarming, one in four patients prescribed opioids for chronic pain struggles with addiction.

Stephen Wagstaff sits down with Dr. Alex Halario, founder of Chiropractic Rehabilitation Source in Yonkers, New York, to discuss the growing epidemic of chronic pain and the alternatives many people are discovering outside traditional pain management.

With over 21 years of experience, Dr. Halario explains how chiropractic care, acupuncture, and simple lifestyle changes can help restore balance to the body and nervous system. But healing, he says, is not only physical — it involves the mind, discipline, and purpose as well.

In this conversation, we explore:

• Why chronic pain has become such a widespread problem

• The role of the nervous system in pain and recovery
• Three simple lifestyle changes that can begin improving pain today
• Why exercise and movement matter more than most people think
• The dangers of opioid-based pain management
• How faith and purpose play a role in long-term healing

Dr. Halario also shares his journey from pre-med student to chiropractor and why helping people regain their health became his life's calling.

If you or someone you love struggles with chronic pain, this episode offers hope, practical insight, and a different path toward healing.
