By the end of this masterclass, you’ll understand how pain works — and more importantly, how healing happens when you address the whole person, not just the symptoms.

🦠 Is it chronic fatigue—or could it be chronic Lyme disease?

Lyme disease, caused by the Borrelia bacteria transmitted through tick bites, can sometimes lead to long-term symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, and pain — often resembling chronic fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia.

In this video, Dr. Deepak Ravindran explains:
🔹 The difference between acute and chronic Lyme disease
🔹 How it’s diagnosed and treated
🔹 Why some people continue to experience symptoms for years
🔹 Practical ways to prevent tick bites and reduce risk

Understanding the overlap between Lyme disease and chronic fatigue helps patients and clinicians look beyond labels — and toward better management.

🔥 Can infrared therapy help with fibromyalgia and chronic pain?

The short answer: Yes, there's promising evidence—especially for fibromyalgia, arthritis, and musculoskeletal pain.

In this video, Dr. Deepak Ravindran explains:
🔹 What infrared light actually is
🔹 How it affects your muscles, nerves, and blood flow
🔹 The science behind pain relief through nitric oxide and cellular healing
🔹 What the latest research says (including a 2022 systematic review)

✅ Safe
✅ Non-invasive
⚠️ Use in moderation (10–15 minutes max per session)

Infrared isn’t magic—but it might just be worth adding to your pain management toolkit.

🛡️ Struggling with pain that doesn’t respond to medication? Your immune system might be the key.

Chronic pain—especially nociplastic pain—often stems from a sensitized nervous system, triggered by an overactive immune response.

In this video, Dr. Deepak Ravindran explains how to calm and optimize the immune system through 5 science-backed strategies:
😴 Sleep
🥦 Nutrition & gut health
🧘 Stress management
🏃‍♀️ Movement
🧠 Mind-body practices

Pain relief isn’t always about stronger drugs. Sometimes, it’s about restoring balance within.

📍 Still wondering where fibromyalgia tender points actually are?

They’re no longer used for diagnosis—but many still ask. In this video, Dr. Deepak Ravindran maps out all 18 tender points once used to identify fibromyalgia, explains how the exam worked (yes, until the nails blanched!), and why the method was flawed and eventually abandoned.

Curious? Watch for clarity—not for clinical use.

🎗 Survived cancer—but still in pain? You're not alone.

As more people beat cancer, a hidden struggle is coming to light: chronic pain after cancer treatment. For many survivors, the battle doesn’t end with remission.

In this video, Dr. Deepak Ravindran explains:
🔹 The three main causes of post-cancer pain
🔹 Why standard painkillers often don’t work
🔹 The rise of nociplastic pain from chemo and immunotherapy
🔹 How integrative, neuroimmune approaches offer new hope

🧠 This isn’t just about damaged nerves—it’s about a sensitized nervous system that needs a new kind of healing.

📍 Still using tender points to diagnose fibromyalgia? It’s time for an update.

The old tender point method—pressing 18 spots on the body to check for pain—has been replaced. Since 2016, the American College of Rheumatology recommends a more accurate and evidence-based approach: the Widespread Pain Index and Symptom Severity Scale.

In this video, I explain why the tender point method is outdated and how our modern understanding of fibromyalgia as a neuroimmune condition has shifted the way we diagnose it.

💊 Cancer pain isn’t just about managing symptoms—it’s about choosing the right mix of treatments.

In this video, I break down the current approaches to treating cancer pain, from medications and nerve blocks to integrative therapies like acupuncture, yoga, massage, and even emerging options like psychedelics.

Cancer pain is often mixed—a blend of nociceptive, neuropathic, and nociplastic pain. That’s why a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work. A personalized, integrative strategy can improve outcomes and enhance quality of life—especially when started early.

What treatment approaches have helped you or someone you know? Share in the comments. And follow for more on effective, compassionate pain care.

🧬 Not all cancer pain is the same—and that matters.

In this video, I dive into the three types of cancer pain:
1️⃣ Nociceptive – caused by inflammation or tissue damage
2️⃣ Neuropathic – from nerve injury or chemotherapy
3️⃣ Nociplastic – when the nervous system becomes overly sensitized

Most patients experience a mix of these pain types, which means one-size-fits-all treatments rarely work. Understanding the root mechanisms is key to choosing the right combination of therapies—often blending medication with integrative, mind-body approaches.
