Get ready to change your story. Life changing podcast you are about to drop in on. Mark England is the head coach and co-founder of Enlifted Coaching — a mindset and language-based coaching system built around the idea that "mindset is the story you tell yourself." After a background in athletics and teaching, and personal experience with injury and transformation, Mark developed what he calls the "Enlifted Method," a practical, repeatable toolkit using language, breath, and narrative to help people overcome limiting beliefs, self-sabotage, and victim-mentality stories. His work isn't just about "positive thinking" — it's about noticing how the words we say (both out loud and inside our heads), how we breathe, and how we frame experience shape our identity, drive decisions, and determine whether we stay stuck or move forward. Some Highlights: Mindset = internal story. The story you tell yourself about yourself. Rewriting that story (through words + breath) you literally change your life trajectory. Language shapes reality. The method emphasizes that simple "word changes" — shifting from conflict language to empowered, clear language by dismantling limiting beliefs, reduce anxiety, and build confidence. Breath as an anchor & reset tool. Conscious breathing underlies the work: slowing speech, calming the nervous system, and using breath to shift emotions so you can think and act from clarity rather than panic or overwhelm.

In this mini podcast episode Dr. Perry talks about how facial massages calm the nervous system and help pain When you massage the face, you're not just working on skin — you're speaking directly to the trigeminal nerve, the largest sensory nerve in the entire head. Gentle pressure on the forehead, cheeks, and jaw sends calming signals into the brainstem, lowering threat, softening sympathetic overdrive, and creating a shift toward safety. The trigeminal system is deeply wired into pain modulation and stress processing, so when you relax the face, you literally turn down the volume on the stress response. It's one of the fastest ways to reset the nervous system: change what the face feels, and you change what the brain perceives. Facial massage stimulates A-beta mechanoreceptors , which quiet pain signals. The trigeminal nerve feeds into autonomic centers calming the fight-or-flight loop . Releasing tension around the jaw and eyes decreases sympathetic load almost instantly. Touching the face shifts emotional tonethe. The limbic system responds to facial relaxation. Relax the face to down regulate inflammation.

In this episode Dr. Perry talks about the power of ear massages and how they calm the body. One of the fastest ways to calm your body is through the ear. The ear is loaded with nerves that talk directly to your autonomic nervous system—especially the vagus nerve, the trigeminal nerve, and small branches of the facial nerve. When you gently massage or rub the ear, you're not just working skin...you're sending a powerful signal to the brain that says 'you're safe.' This boosts parasympathetic tone, eases muscle tension, improves blood and lymph flow, and drops pain levels. It's a simple, accessible reset that helps shift you out of fight-or-flight and back into healing, recovery, and regeneration mode. Do it daily for 30-days and feel the difference. WEBSITE YOUTUBE

In this episode Dr. Perry has a chat with Chris DaPrato DPT, SCS, CSCS, PES, MFDc the lead instructor and innovator of Integrative Movement Health We discuss the science and applications of cupping in helping pain. There are a lot of myths out there about cupping and Dr. DaPrato sets the record straight. If you have ever wondered if cupping is a theraputic option for you, this is the episode you do not want to miss. Some of the highlights. Movement matters — it's not just passive suction Dr. DaPrato emphasises that MFD is distinct from traditional passive cupping because it combines negative-pressure suction with active movement or loading . Fascial shear, glide and viscoelasticity are key targets Chris explains improving the sliding/ gliding surfaces of fascia, increasing viscoelastic properties and thereby enhancing mobility and tissue responsiveness Cups can be used as neurosensory tools not just mechanical tools One of his points: the cups provide sensory input — mechanoreceptor stimulation, nervous system modulation, proprioceptive feedback — which can influence movement patterns and motor control. Dr. DaPrato currently treats professional and NCAA athletes at UC San Francisco and UC Berkeley, while teaching in the Orthopedic Residency for their School of Medicine. He is a strong proponent and educator for manual therapy in sports and has presented evidence informed practices at conferences both nationally and internationally. After receiving his BS in Human Physiology, his Masters in Physical Therapy from Long Beach, and his Doctorate from Temple University, he went on to become Board Certified in Sports through the APTA.

Back for another episode is our great friend Robert Gourlay of Mea Water going even more in depth on the healing power of water. Make sure you check out our previous episode with Robert and the link below the show notes. Water is far more than H₂O — it's a living, dynamic system of information and energy. In this episode, Dr. Perry sits down with Robert Gourlay , founder of Mea Water , to explore the science and mystery of structured and energy water — how it forms, how it interacts with the human body, and why its organization might be the missing link in healing, hydration, and cellular communication. Robert shares decades of research on how water holds memory, responds to energy fields, and connects all biological systems. You'll learn how structured water supports the body's natural bioelectrical flow, enhances lymphatic and mitochondrial function, and restores coherence to the fluid network of life — your internal Body Aquarium . This conversation will change how you see water forever. Previous Episode Link: link: SCP Podcast Episode 254: Mea Water – Structured Water with Robert Gourlay

In this episode, Dr. Perry discusses the connection between the nervous system and the immune system and how they relate to each other in relationship to chronic pain and chronic inflammation.

Fluid systems always connect to each other. Change the name and change sizes it doesn't matter. They all connect. See why this matters in healing Blood. Lymph. Cerebrospinal fluid. Interstitial fluid.

On this episode of the Stop Chasing Pain Podcast , Dr. Perry Nickelston sits down with Dr. Nasha Winters, a global thought leader in integrative oncology and author of The Metabolic Approach to Cancer . Together, they dive into the revolutionary framework Dr. Winters has developed to help patients and practitioners alike rethink cancer care. This conversation explores how metabolic health, bio-individualized therapies, and the power of nutrition can shift the way we approach prevention, treatment, and long-term healing. Highlights from Dr. Winters' book include: How cancer is not just a genetic disease but a metabolic one, deeply tied to cellular energy and mitochondrial function. The role of the ketogenic diet and therapeutic nutrition in starving cancer cells while nourishing healthy tissues. The impact of toxin exposure and why reducing environmental and lifestyle stressors is key to healing. The importance of balancing the terrain —hormones, inflammation, immune function, microbiome, and emotional resilience. Using bio-individualized therapies —tailoring interventions to each person's unique biology rather than a one-size-fits-all model. Why building metabolic flexibility and resilience isn't just for cancer patients, but a roadmap for all of us who want to live healthier, longer, more vibrant lives. This episode is a must-listen if you want to understand the future of cancer care through the lens of whole-body healing. Website for Dr. Winters Book Purchase here

Dr. Emily Splichal returns as a guest to discuss her transformative journey—from conventional surgical training to pioneering sensory-based, functional podiatry—and to introduce her new book, Sensory Sapiens . In it, she presents a sensory-centric framework for movement that champions the foot (and entire sensory system) as the key to longevity, balance, and injury prevention. Notably, she details how our body's sensory intelligence —specifically through textured stimulation of the feet—enhances balance and proprioception ; how foot stimulation supports bone density and even brain health by activating deeper tissues and circulation; how sensory stacking —layering various sensory inputs into movement practices—supercharges rehabilitation and performance; and how everyday contact with gravity as a "sensory hug" grounds and recalibrates both body and nervous system. Sensory Sapiens offers a compelling, research-backed blueprint for anyone wanting to age well and move better, organically and holistically. Dr. Emily Splichal is a functional podiatrist and human movement specialist who initially trained as a surgeon at Beth Israel Medical Center (NYC) and Mt. Vernon Hospital before shifting in 2017 to a practice grounded in functional and regenerative medicine s She's founder and CEO of Naboso , a sensory-technology company devoted to awakening the nervous system via the feet—and soon the hands—with textured products and neuro-stimulators. A globally recognized leader in barefoot science, she has educated over 25,000 professionals across 35 countries and created the Barefoot Training Specialist® certification and EBFA Global. She is also the author of Barefoot Strong and now Sensory Sapiens , continuing her mission to help people move better and live longer by reconnecting with their sensory selves.

The thoracic spine is one of the most overlooked keys to resolving chronic neck and back pain. Acting as the central anchor between the cervical and lumbar regions, it influences posture, breathing, rib motion, and spinal stability. When the thoracic spine becomes stiff or restricted, the neck and lower back are forced to compensate, often leading to overuse, tension, and pain. Because it's deeply connected to the ribcage and diaphragm, thoracic mobility also affects circulation, lymphatic flow, and nervous system balance. In other words, if you only treat the painful areas without restoring movement and pressure balance through the thoracic spine, the cycle of chronic pain continues. It's not just a middle piece of the spine—it's the missing link in many healing journeys. Joint By Joint Video Here

Stop Chasing Pain listeners get 5% off the Aha Halo at this link: Enter Promo Code: DrPerry2025 HALO LINK Bioresonance frequency therapy is rooted in the fundamental principle that your body is an electromagnetic system. Here are five key ideas that make this therapy so powerful. 🔹 1. Every Cell Has Its Own Frequency Your body is like a giant radio tower. Every organ, every tissue, every cell sends out a frequency. When you're healthy, those frequencies are clean and coherent. When you're in pain or dealing with chronic issues, that signal gets distorted—just like static on the radio. 🔹 2. Illness = Frequency Distortion Think of toxins, trauma, infections, and stress as noise. They disrupt your body's natural communication. Bioresonance picks up on that distorted noise and helps recalibrate it—like tuning your instrument back to perfect pitch. 🔹 3. Resonance is the Language of Healing This therapy works by sending corrective frequencies that 'match' the healthy version of your cells. When those frequencies resonate, your body remembers what balance feels like—and starts to move back toward it. It's a reset for your biofield. 🔹 4. Information Transfer, Not Medication We're giving your body a signal—a message. It's subtle, but powerful. Frequencies are transmitted through the body's own electromagnetic field to influence how cells behave. This is quantum biology in action. 🔹 5. Your Body Already Knows How to Heal "Bioresonance doesn't heal you. You do. This therapy just clears the energetic gunk so your self-regulating systems can wake up and do what they're designed to do. It's like clearing a clogged river so flow returns. If you've been chasing pain for years, maybe it's time to stop and listen to the frequency your body's trying to broadcast. Healing doesn't always roar—it sometimes whispers. Bioresonance helps you hear it.
