Can the mind really amplify pain even when your body is healed? Join us as we unravel this fascinating concept of neuroplastic pain and symptoms Fresh off our family trip to British Columbia, we share our travel adventures with young children and shift our focus to understanding the seven ways neuroplastic pain and symptoms develop. We dive deep into how pain signals can serve as meaningful messages rather than mere mistakes, and how recognizing these signals can lead to profound personal healing journeys.

Discover how stress, life transitions, and even high-intensity living contribute to chronic pain, and why processing emotions proactively is crucial. Learn about the intricate links between mental health issues like depression and anxiety with chronic pain, and the urgent need to address external factors that make us feel unsafe. By the end of this episode, you'll have a clearer understanding of how to manage chronic pain holistically and maintain both mental and physical well-being.

Tanner Murtagh and Anne Hampson are therapists who treat neuroplastic pain and mind-body symptoms. They are also married! In his 20s, Tanner overcame chronic pain and a fibromyalgia diagnosis by learning his symptoms were occurring due to learned brain pathways and nervous system dysregulation. Post-healing, Tanner and Anne have dedicated their lives to developing effective treatment and education for neuroplastic pain and symptoms. Listen and learn how to assess your own chronic pain and symptoms, gain tools to retrain the brain and nervous system, and make gradual changes in your life and health!
