Chronic Pain: If it's possible to recover, why do so many doctors say it's not?
|
In 2025, I experienced daily, disabling, widespread joint pain. It started suddenly and went on for almost 8 months.
As far as chronic pain stories go, mine was pretty brief. I know of people who have suffered for decades. I recently spoke with a specialist in this kind of pain, and the podcast is available now on YouTube. |

The reason my pain episode was so short was because I knew without any doubt from the moment of onset that the pain was social-emotional.
Doctors talk about chronic pain as if it were a life sentence that you “just have to learn to live with” because their medical training completely ignores the mind-body nature of human beings.
Just as I did with the Hauber Method™, I am fighting to change society's minconceptions about chronic pain.
But unlike my back-care methods, I'm currently putting effort into training the people who seem to hold all the power when someone seeks treatment for chronic pain: healthcare practitioners.
If you're interested, or you know a clinician who is frustrated by their seeming inability to help their patients with chronic pain, click the image below to visit my practitioner-focused website.
In the meantime, please share my story with people you know who are currently suffering.
