Energy healing is often dismissed as “woo woo” by people who have never experienced it.

But what if some of what we call woo woo is simply what science has not yet learned how to measure?

In this episode of Beyond The Pain, I speak with Romain Daumont, founder of Luminara Care, about energy healing, chronic pain, grief, silence, trust, and the emerging science around biofield therapies.

Romain’s journey into this work began after the heartbreaking loss of his son, Rafael, shortly after birth. During that period of grief, he discovered something unexpected: silence did not have to feel empty or frightening. In the presence of others, silence could feel loving, supportive, and deeply connecting.

That experience eventually led him to create Helo, an app designed to help people share moments of silence together, even when physically apart. But Romain’s path later took another turn when he began exploring collective meditation, remote healing, and the world of energy medicine.

In this conversation, we discuss how energy healing may support people with chronic pain, trauma, anxiety, depression, and cancer-related pain, while also being honest that it does not work for everyone, and that the quality and integrity of the practitioner matters enormously.

We also talk about why trust is so important in an unregulated field, how Luminara vets practitioners, what a first session may look like, and why Romain is now involved in research looking at energy healing, chronic pain, trauma, and other health challenges.

This is a thought-provoking conversation about pain, the nervous system, emotional healing, the biofield, science, scepticism, and the possibility that healing may involve more than the physical body alone.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why Romain’s experience of grief changed his relationship with silence
• How shared silence can create connection without words
• The story behind Helo and Luminara Care
• Why Romain became interested in collective meditation and remote healing
• How energy healing may help some people with chronic pain
• Why practitioner quality, ethics, and trust matter so much
• What mainstream pain care may miss about persistent pain
• Why pain is not simply something to suppress
• The relationship between pain, the nervous system, emotions, and the body
• What a first energy healing session through Luminara may look like
• How Luminara matches clients with vetted practitioners
• The importance of consent, openness, and safety in healing work
• Emerging research into biofield therapies and energy healing
• Why the future of healthcare may need to become more integrative
