In this episode, Dr. David Hanscom continues his discussion with Miriam Gauci Bongiovanni, Pain Coach and MindBody Practitioner.  She explains her approach to treating patients with mind-body symptoms, emphasizing the importance of shifting focus from symptoms as enemies to understanding them as messengers. She described her initial strategy of building confidence in the mind-body connection and exploring emotional factors contributing to symptoms. She discusses the challenge of convincing patients of the non-structural causes of their symptoms and the value of open-mindedness and curiosity in the treatment process. By challenging

their expectations of pain, patients can begin the healing process.
