Episode 141 of the Fit Father Project Podcast is all about treating chronic pain and mental health issues in new ways never before thought of.
In this episode, you’ll meet Dr. Eugene Lipov and Jamie Mustard, the authors of the new book, The Invisible Machine: The Startling Truth About Trauma and the Scientific Breakthrough That Can Transform Your Life, and pioneers of the Dual Sympathetic Reset Procedure (DSRP).
They have a groundbreaking revelation that psychological trauma manifests as a physical injury that can be seen and monitored on a brain scan, and a revolutionary approach to resetting the sympathetic nervous system that has helped countless patients suffering from chronic pain, anxiety, PTSD, and other related conditions.
“The Einstein of Modern Anesthesiology,” Dr. Lipov is a renowned board-certified pain specialist and the inventor of the stellate ganglion block, a minimally invasive procedure that has been proven effective in treating PTSD symptoms.
Jamie Mustard is an artist, a renowned strategic consultant, and the author of the bestselling book, The Iconist: The Art and Science of Standing Out. Beginning as a child and then into adulthood, he suffered years of trauma at varying levels before stumbling across Dr. Lipov and the DSRP.
In their new book, Dr. Lipov and Jamie combine their expertise to explain the science behind the DSRP and its potential to revolutionize the way we treat chronic pain and mental health issues. Their approach is based on the premise that the sympathetic nervous system, which controls our fight-or-flight response, can become “stuck” in a state of hyperarousal, leading to chronic pain and other debilitating symptoms.
Weaving hard science with moving human stories, The Invisible Machine reveals how this treatment was developed. It also tells the incredible story of the unlikely team, including the doctor, an artist, Special Forces leadership, and a sheriff, who are working together to change our understanding of post-traumatic stress and why it matters to society.
It’s an incredible conversation you’re sure to learn a lot from!
