Chronic Pain, PTSD & the Brain: Exploring Neuroplasticity and Neuromodulation


Listen Later

In previous episodes, we've discussed the deep connection between mental health and chronic pain. Today, we take that conversation further with Dr. Venue Karapareddy, a psychiatrist with specialized expertise in brain health, neuroplasticity, and innovative mental health treatments.

Dr. Karapareddy is a clinician and researcher who focuses on complex conditions such as PTSD, treatment-resistant depression, and chronic pain. He is actively involved in advancing the use of neuromodulation therapies—including transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and ketamine—for individuals whose symptoms have not responded to traditional treatments.

In this episode, host Tom Hoppe sits down with Dr. Karapareddy to explore how chronic pain and PTSD are linked in the brain, how neuroplasticity can be harnessed for healing, and how emerging therapies are reshaping what’s possible in pain and trauma recovery.
