jennifer hildebrand has alleviating the pain of many of patients through physiotherapy. but a few years ago, she has self experience. terrible pain in her face, although she knows a lot about the human body, she couldn't explain what was causing it. she said she'll never forget how bad it was. that's perfect. i don't even the name of the phone like someone that hit me in the face with a brick. but i know it was a stinging pulling, electrifying sensation, which also felt like being caught by a knife hitting a bubble. i felt helpless under the paint and a student's help. i had a very, very deep and profound sense of helplessness because i just didn't know what to do that. and i could see in the adult designs that they were the last 2 and didn't know how to help the and that's the oh, that's i if it's in or that isn't advice which ones are? she went for one doctor to the next,
4:32 am
hoping someone could tell her why she was in such pain. dot continued for to use. but no one was able to diagnose the problem. until she so we'll jump to on of english, a pain therapist. she had to an x ray and mri off with no clues. but then dr. emory's noticed a small scar on her chin that drew his attention. phone here come on here, you can see the remains of a scar that's from the original new logic eye infection. now from the inside zone, at the age of 21, jennifer hildebrand has shingles of this exact spot, which was never treated. so was this the cause of the new pain she was experiencing the novice of us to expand, the scar is left for the new and logical infection in this case caused by shingles and foreigners that led to chronic pain due to an open sensitivity of the nerve takes it point to them, in this case of the mental lives in the face is the rage normally and inflammation
4:33 am
of the nerve would hear without a problem. but that didn't happen here. and that's why she still needs treatment. and for 3, i don't just have a p uh fault on this. jennifer hildebrand has developed what's known as a pain memory, the nerve cent impulses to the brain for so long that it caused an over reaction. instead of sending out endorphins to relieve the pain, the brain began in mixing nearer transmits is that increased sensitivity to pain. this can continue even when the actual cause of the pain has been resolved or healed. the pain is fairly stored in the body and mind. the highest, this is the pain is engraved in certain areas of the brain could be so can be easily recalled or reactive aged at any moment. but it's like when i learn a certain sequences, movements when soviet so let's take playing tennis,
4:34 am
for example. a new most by speed of my tenant speed. and once i've learned how to hit your tennis ball, i'll remember how to do it for the rest of my life and tennis ballots are flocking and it's similar with the experience of pain and the memory of pain. so let's get this reflects a feeling more pain, again, jude, when did not dental stimulus has become ext into your brain and the highest speed of stack on from that. so i'm faint, incisions him twice the i'm good comp and the i'm coffee a time. and for that reason janet, the hell it runs, pain keeps coming back even now. so she needs ranking a treatment. the doctor checks the various and to exit points gauge. he said about food duck, honestly, i can't feel anything myself and i only know where the move exit point on so and so i touch that every year and know the patients reaction of diesel holes, tells me whether the area is over sensitive or not. well then this define is that's
4:35 am
the case and these no exit points are triggering the pain in the face. i can disrupt the process within therapeutic local anesthetic tone on the price of this a niece of sizes than this, which prevents them from transmitting the pain. jennifer hildebrand has to have the treatment every 10 weeks now, if pain will not disappear on its own otherwise, according to what we know at this time. still she is very grateful for the treatment as it temporarily interrupts the pain memory. to even do offense on us, it's just like when you're at the dentist and you'll change goes number for mission . so me, when the pain is a queue to me on a septic takes effect, i usually have an effect effect and come on and it means i get a break for minutes. so when you feel the pain subside, it's not, it's just such a sense of relief and last the on for how so. even though jennifer hillier runs
4:36 am
pain memory will probably never disappear completely. she is at least now able to live with it. it's maybe like a knocking, throbbing or banging every day. 1.3000000000 people suffer from headaches. that includes migraines that occur again and again, often on just one side. they frequently come with nausea or vomiting or sensitivity to light. now researchers and denmark may have discovered the cause of migraines. they found 12 different proteins are released in this a reproach, spinal fluid that activates nerve cells. future drugs could target those proteins. they're not available yet, but there are things that help me to all my limbs hurt. all my muscles are heavy on my bones hurt and it's like having
4:37 am
a high fever without medication. it's the equivalent to the pain of giving birth on rare occasions when the pain is just about to become really bad. i have a sick while a fuck in front of me got to do things to naples on that. i warn people around me that i can't see anything to my. that's always come. a thought peterson has had migraines predicting of late. they've been lasting up to 8 days as she's come to the pain clinic in the north german city of cuba for help. the migraines have changed her life. she used to have her own business, but was forced to quit. now she wants to stay strong for herself and her family. that's trinity shown that. so just of course that means i often have to hide my illness and that requires an incredible amount of mental strength fees and involves . and you can please a cost of thing that you have to pull yourself together and focus all your strength on holding onto math, alex half the time so stagnant. i'm in moscow. i just think i'm going to function until everyone is out of the room. that was my homes and we're done. and when they
4:38 am
leave, i collapse and to myself, it's incredibly draining. michelle's migraines often cause patients to tense, creating other problems at all. they can also have a considerable psychological impacting, how look good and heads the clinic. he spent 30 years researching the condition is does all, you know, the granite is the migraines aren't headaches, they're a very complex neurological disorder. and so it sometimes said they're like an encyclopedia of neurology because they vary so widely with a wide range of symptoms. to me, the exact mechanisms involved are still not fully understood. what is their $48.00 types of migraine to be finding the right diagnosis takes time and requires an older teen device. each patient has to be treated individually because in and out of the migraines therapy is based on a 3 important color was vis. firstly, informing patients and behavior and relax station method. adapting your daily
4:39 am
routine. spider in the 2nd pillar is the therapeutic options available for acute attacks. their remedies for nauseous, vomiting pain, and for the inflammatory process and the nervous system looks. what can you now for me to steal? the 3rd pillar is preventive medication. this also helps eva peterson as do regular meals and physical therapy to relieve tension tissue. how does that feel? says it's more strenuous than i thought. just the pain clinic provides an app for patients. whenever they're in pain. they enter the information in the app, which also helps to get the dose of medication, right. let's see obesity is i can always see how much acute medication that's taken in the lock up there today. and that's causes tom, i'm that's important to comply with what's called the 1020 rule for height. and by mouth, you shouldn't take the acute medication more than 10 times and 30 days. otherwise you developed other problems down the line here. need
4:40 am
a doctors appointment if peterson would like to see migraines being taken more seriously in society. we think it's best to tie beach. this is. i think it's really important that it's recognized. migraines aren't just headaches. you have any t 9 for me. they come completely out of the blue. i just haven't had no control over what on the top comes on. and it's really awful. if i peterson will probably always have migraine, but she's at least learned to live with them. why do aids and monkeys hardly ever have back or joint pain, even though they have 99 percent of the same genes as we do scientists research this 30 years ago. their conclusions are closest relatives are super active and they make full use of their joints. we humans, on the other hand, prefer a life on the couch, in 2018, 500000000 people suffered from fact pay research or say by 2050. that number will
4:41 am
reach 840000000. you carry something heavy right away, the pain which happens back problems have 10, no amy's life into an old deal. it happened to me stock or smart. i get clients to be a pain in my lower back. it's mostly on the left side and radiates down my legs around the back of my size and lower like condition kind of on top. for my team there, it's even less. pain has been a constant companion for years now. who's on the smack you at work? i have to stand for long periods, and that's what i notice it, especially. and when doing household tools, as i often have to lift heavy things across, i get a stabbing pain in my lower back. sometimes one side is with them. yeah, the other side it says that crow iliac joints, this causing the problem whether it's blockages, nation or misalignment problems with the s i join to
4:42 am
a one of the main causes of back pain because this is a colleague link. this is the 2nd quote in new york joint is this very wind link, co sliding layer between the so called helium and the sacraments. ok home when it forms a launch sliding joints that is held together by strong ligaments and says to distribute forces does mean this fine a hell of a solution. the sign ultimately the legs interest in binding on the pain is usually triggered here. at the top of this comp, student ligaments, operators, imaging technology rules out other causes of the pain. in knowing these case, an examination reveals that her legs and not the same length. her left leg is show tensile even a small discrepancy can cause problems. but other issues can also cause pain in the side joint of the system items as well as the most common problem is that to live stream is based on the joints due to an incorrect post.
4:43 am
yeah. but the i saw joints may also be suffering from when evans have especially in old age, and that can cause pain to radiate from the joint to the job. then you have to consider that they could be a fracture roller to causing the problem. problem and red cases. it may be every logic condition like unclosing sponge like to see the mobile space task manuals therapy helps with acute pain. ringback a targeted manipulation of the joint released blockages on loose and the muscle. ringback the effect can usually be felt immediately hot guns cause it was a brief twinge and i knew it is hit the right spot that reduce the pain. and now i just feel like my muscles are a bit so there's about the most important therapy is exercise. if the pain is acute stretching and exercises to loosen up can help to
4:44 am
mobilize the s i joint sensor exercise is designed to prevent problems reoccurring . these i am especially to strengthen the area and can be done by the patient at home, like extending and lowering the leg one on or foods, and then switching sides. keep your lower box straight. it's important to exercise regularly. ideally, every day, strong abdominal on coal muscles can help prevent new problems occurring with the side joint with this exercise. and so 20 repetition um but in martinez case, these treatments was sufficient. the mother of 3 has no developed a chronic condition. most americans 50 minus the real problem here was multiple pregnancy, one of which was twins, 2 boys took quite big. so problems can occur when giving this, because it can injure the pelvic ring that's and they take them pounded by the
4:45 am
strain of carrying the children by them and not exacerbates any preexisting problems so that they become chronic through them. that's what, that's the very soon thought they know how to cope with the pain. martina has opted to have an injection. this involves minimally invasive procedure. when on c, inflammatory pain categories injected directly into the joint, guided by x rays. this we ask that victor is the pain is improved really quite fast . i can move faster again and standing is definitely easier on steam. i can no sun for longer again, fire as well. excuse me, the lingo. some patients find the pain later, which happens. they can then try another procedure. it's a radio frequency ablation. very from outside to the nerves that are transmitting the pains of causing the information from the outside joint to the spine and the
4:46 am
brain are interrupted. old cutoff temperature is 80 degrees is applied to the notes, is tested beforehand and is quite safe to follow. it doesn't damage any surrounding this on that. so. so problem 3, you want to buy all who, who with incidentally sudden lung vega is often simply a very acute assigned, joint blockage, painted is and feet can help. uncomfortable smell often do caught even stand up properly or patients come in then, right. tell you that. but usually an injection helps us, and it's quickly results now who decided martino is hoping that she has no rid of pain and committed to living normally. in fact, pain is often a cause for concern, but it's rarely linked to a serious condition, like a slips. disc, osteoarthritis of the vertebrae for osteoporosis. the most common cause is muscle tension. a lack of exercise and incorrect cost your are usually to blame. sitting
4:47 am
for long periods of time. leaning at an angle or slouching in front of a screen can put a strain on our spines and muscles, the office chair of the future. to change that, the a test laboratory addressed in university of technology is setting. how is sedentary? lifestyle can be made more healthy. this scientist has sensors on his body to track his movements while sitting in an office chair. the team here wants to design new chairs that relieve to stream on office workers. the voice and todd safely. we wanted to studies a physiology involved in setting numbers to know at what point movement is most effective to do so when it we're going to get up and walk around. and we're looking to find the right dose, the current into an alt dorothy spit off the mountain. the scientists have developed a series of movable office chairs with different have it until points. this chair, with a low center of gravity behaves like
4:48 am
a sitting ball. it's wadley and your upper body has to say active. this rocking chair has a high center of gravity. the seat hangs in the frame. your upper body is still why the lower part remains mobile. it encourages you to move your feet back and forth, which imitates walking down the, you know, secure. we've tried to transfer the movement of locking the city just because the center of rotation is here in the middle of the body. i get a movement similar to walking vista. so imagine my right hand is a seat in my left hand of the pelvis or the hips of is. and here both is left and right together. some cool not vacant slope links past is too little. it's like walking and walking is healthy, wouldn't been months. so if we can make sitting similar to walk if we want to. yeah . and then how big one in the rocking chair is best. it not only imitates natural locking, and that's released the pressure on the spine. a patented sensor also measures public business. use this plan to get to this little box basically calculates how
4:49 am
much energy i'm using and calories, depending on how fast they moving. and how wide my movement cycle. so today i've already covered 1.2 kilometers. virtually all sitting down with the team is spent 3 years developing the rocking chair and the sensor. now the scientists are waiting for a manufacturer to turn it into attractive office chairs that are good for your back . most of us can't wait for amazing new chairs. we have to make do with whatever we have. experts recommend getting up and moving around regularly. and the right sitting position is vital back pain is often caused by poor pastor, especially due to sitting incorrectly for long periods to pull him. i think the biased the problem with most patients. if they develop a hunched back during the course of the day with then they have to push their neck
4:50 am
back to be able to look straight ahead in a form that compresses the small vertical joints. and tents has the neck muscles and that's why the pain specialist teaches his patients how to sit properly that he has to be any. firstly, adjust the height of your seat so that your hips are slightly open into your legs. drop down slightly. fine. a 2nd please. and adjust the height of your desk so that they provide some support for your elbows and arms. pretend thirdly, adjust your screen to the top page is that time leveled a not too far away mission. so if i take the q 2, it's good to keep moving and above all, keep your chin tucked in and your next long exercise in your shoulders will help prevent new attention recurring. then you can remain pain free even while sitting stress burn out or depression can also cause persistent pain. loneliness can
4:51 am
increase our sense of pain as count an overprotective partner, while attentive and supportive people can alleviate pain, so can enjoyable experiences and affection. the traditional medicine tends not to separate body and mind in the 1st place. in chinese medicine, pain is associated with stagnation, energy, blood, or bodily fluids are set to not be flowing harmoniously. studies suggest that chinese herbs and acupuncture can actually help with pain. but what about acupressure mat, do they actually have anything to do with the traditional chinese medicine, the occupation months come in different shapes and colors. and i said to relieve pain and stiffness. so what is the medical basis behind the months affiliated with hard, caustic tips and can be purchased for relatively small price,
4:52 am
but come they really relieve pain. we want to find out. so we've come to munich to see a pain specialist. dominic in a heads up the gentleman medical association for acupuncture. he's concerned about the name of the month on the claim that they stimulate acupressure points d. i could press well, i could measure to use this very specific points. ok, now you could say if i stimulate all the points in my body right then i'll definitely hit the right one. so the allowed me. but we think if you stimulate to the point 6, i'm likely to have the same effect to like your vehicle, not at the munich pain clinic. outpatients can learn how occupation actually works . doctors are on hand to show them how they can apply it for themselves. the 15 year old laura is learning how to use occupation for her migraines as yet in kind into the points is inside here in the muscle fast. i personal it hot enough to this
4:53 am
that i can feel something moving now it's just processing, but not so hard to say that it has the surfaces pressing exactly at this point is designed to help relieve a migraine according to traditional chinese medicine, a body is covered by 14, so called meridians on energy pathways. the theory is that if the flow, if energy is disrupted, the blockage is need to be removed so that excess energy can dissipate using acupressure. for example. the treatment method is similar to acupuncture support and it uses the same points because it's not a fake to when does it does have an effect on of course it has the advantage that you don't have to print the skin interface and especially as some patients are a bit anxious. this method allows me to work hard and comfortably with my fingers
4:54 am
into that. but overall, the effect is not as strong or as well proven as with acupuncture. cloudy a whole month isn't experts in acupuncture on naturopathic medicine. in the city of cologne. she also wanted to know if the months help with back and neck pain and carried out a small study. she had participants lay on the mats for 30 minutes every day for 2 weeks. are they with then asked about that experience and underwent sense to be tests and as to what do you have them does on june of those 2 weeks, a levels were reduced by 30 percent for chronic pain and even more for back pain because of the, of the toner and this increased, which means they became a less sensitive, isn't one. i'm sent a 2nd and that was very surprising for us. we wouldn't have expected not in such a short time. what's the size is collections? so the months seem able to leave a certain amount of pain in the short 10. that's not uncommon when people do
4:55 am
something to take care of themselves. but dominic image says the months have little to do with acupressure. and according to cover medical understanding, line still on a month is not a good way to come back back. pain policies are behind numerous tests if treatments um no longer the main focus in managing chronic pain. the focus is more on multi modal pain therapy because we see pain or something affecting the entire process. and this means we need to strengthen the body of the organism because one is activating paint inhibition systems via them. to conclude the name acupressure is misleading. the mats have nothing to do with classic acupressure. they just stimulate a white surface area on whether they have any long term effect has yet to be scientifically proven. so for now, at least, that just a wellness product. by the way,
