The Cure for Chronic Pain with Nicole Sachs, LCSW

S3 Ep87: Michael Porter, Jr. is FREE of Chronic Back Pain and Playing the Best Basketball of his Life


Listen Later

I met NBA Denver Nugget's Forward Michael Porter, Jr. at a rather low point in his life. He had been diagnosed with degenerative disc disease while still in his teens, and by the time we crossed paths he'd had three back surgeries that didn't cure his pain. In fact, in the Summer of 2023 when we came together, he was in a flare so bad he was struggling to walk up the stairs. Thankfully for Mike, he is blessed with an open mind and a curious nature. He knew after surgery #3 that he had to find another way to look at his pain, or risk losing his career. After discovering Dr. Sarno's work, he quickly came across mine. Michael's life has never been the same.

He dove into JournalSpeak, boldly and bravely looking at the places he was holding anger, grief, and shame. He examined his childhood, and made profound connections about things like achieving in basketball and his perception of being loved. Paired with the essentials of a TMS mindset and an understanding of the brain science, unearthing these core emotions and truths set him free. Today, Michael is (pun intended) at the top of his game. He has no chronic back pain whatsoever, and when he gets even a hint of a sensation, he need only employ the principles of MindBody medicine to send it on its way. I could go on forever about his uncommon wisdom for a 25-year-old, but I'd rather you hear it from Michael yourself. Enjoy this interview with a true inspiration - a young man who has taken back his life and his power, and has found himself unstoppable. Enjoy! XO n.
