Body and Mind Pain Center

This is the question that guides everything we do. For so long, pain has been treated as a purely physical signal, something to be masked or numbed. But true, lasting healing begins when we acknowledge the profound connection between body and mind.

It’s not about managing symptoms. It’s about restoring equilibrium to your entire being.

Over the next few days, we’ll be sharing more about our unique approach to pain and wellness. We’re so glad you’re here.

The pain is blinding
There’s nothing else to see.

The pain is deafening
Muffled background din doesn’t pe*****te.

It sits in your space
Disregards your comfort zone
Never asked to be there but assumes it’s right nonetheless.

I sit with it waiting for it to leave, to move, to change. It pulses in place like a bell noone asked to toll.

I squeeze my eyes shut but it’s not visual to block. There’s no smell to cover up no blanket to protect me.

I’m vulnerable to its grasp, it’s relentless announcement of its presence it’s power like a vise pervading its unwelcome dominance over my body.

I refuse to cower to its spell of vulnerability. I welcome the sensations as awful as they appear, like biting into a rotten fruit or enduring the sting of a vaccine.

This time it’s heartless. Making me sweat. But I know it’s power depends on me enabling its dominance over me. I’m stubborn. I’m strong. It can hurt but it can’t force me to suffer.

I breathe through the stabbing, I breathe in rhythm with the pulsations of pain that makes my bones rattle. I hold still and squeeze my eyes. Grab the wheel and reclaim my body.

The body is hurting but it’s mine. It can hurt and that is there to protect me as a parent pulls a child out of a busy intersection.

I need to honor and respect this process. Thank you for warning me my nerves are being compressed. They don’t deserve that and I will deal with them. For now, keep letting me know you are unhappy and I will respect this. It will certainly not feel pleasant but I totally understand the sentiment.

Pain is just a sensation that aims to steer me back to safety. I welcome the journey.

Patient review: "Dr. Nevo and his team were fantastic. I have had PRP injections before, but never from a doctor who utilized the technology of ultrasound concurrently while injecting the PRP.
