Reduce Your Pain With The Miracle Ball

3/29/2021
In this episode, I talk with Elaine Petrone. Petrone’s Miracle Ball Method evolved from her own battle with chronic pain. A lifelong dancer, she woke up one morning to discover her right leg had gone completely numb. Over time her condition deteriorated into a state of chronic pain that brought her to the point of immobility. At a loss for a solution, she reached out to professionals with varying techniques to relieve her pain, including those who used balls, body weight, and gravity and emphasized breathing in their practice. This began Elaine’s ten-year journey seeking to combine these techniques in a way that would be beneficial and accessible to anyone experiencing pain. The result was the Miracle Ball Method. Users experience extraordinary, life-changing results because their stories and Petrone’s story are one and the same.

What You Always Wanted To Know About Your Pain (commonly asked questions about pain)

9/30/2020
In my practice, I mainly deal with pain.So in this episode, I wanted to answer some commonly asked questions about pain. These questions are from my patients and from my listeners. On the surface it sounds like it would be simple to figure out what is causing your pain, and how to treat it and how to get rid of it. But this cannot be farther from the truth. I treat people on a daily basis who have gone to 15 doctors and still don't have an answer as to where their pain is coming from, or how to treat it. I also commonly treat people who may have a diagnosis of what their problem is, but they can't get it to calm down with any of the treatments recommended, or they know that it is not the correct diagnosis. Navigating the world of health care can be very difficult and confusing, especially if you don't have any training in it. navigating your way through that world, while in pain, can be even more frustrating and confusing. Let me help you work your way through that world easier.
