  31. A Silent Epidemic 116 million Americans suffer from chronic pain $635 billion is spent each year on treatments that are often ineffective and frequently do more harm than good

  32. The Many Faces of My Neurophysiologic Disorder • Migraines • OCD • Tinnitus • Acid Reflux • Burning feet • Back/neck pain • Anxiety/ panic attacks • Migratory skin rashes • Insomnia • Itching scalp • Severe depression • Tension Headaches • PTSD • Crushing chest pain • Chronic tendonitis • Palpitations

  33. Unresolved Pain Shifts in the Brain Over Time Study reviewed in Brain: A Journal of Neurology

  34. Prospective fMRI Study LBP • Acute pain = 94 – < 2 months • Chronic pain = 59 – > 10 years

  35. Location of brain activity • Acute pain – nociceptive area • Chronic – emotional area

  36. Longitudinally followed 39 acute LBP • 19 recovered • 20 become chronic

  37. Scans every 3 months for 12 months Became Chronic Pain Resolved • Nociceptive area quiet • Activity shifted to emotional centers • Nociceptive quiet

  38. Chronic pain exists in the emotional not the nociceptive areas of the brain

  45. I believe that one of the most basic needs that makes us human is to be in charge of our destiny with a sense of purpose. Successfully treating patients suffering from chronic pain requires re-connecting them with their original sense of vision and purpose in life.

  53. OMEGA EXPERIENCE

  54. Disease in man is never exactly the same as disease in an experimental animal, for in man the disease at once affects and is affected by what we call the emotional life. Thus the physician who attempts to take care of the patient while he neglects this factor is as unscientific as the investigator who neglects to control all of the conditions that affect his or her experiment.

  55. One of the essential qualities of the clinician is interest in humanity, for the secret of care is in caring for the patient.

  56. Frances Peabody The Care of the Patient - 1927

  58. Anxiety is a Neurophysiological Response to Sensory Input

  59. Why is Chronic Pain Hard to Treat?

  60. “We propose that chronic pain is the consequence of plastic changes in cortical-limbic circuitry, leading to new learning and to memory formation that are continuously reinforced and thus cannot be extinguished, as a consequence of the emotional and motivational associations with the painful stimulus …….” Mansour 2014
