A Menu of Strategies for Chronic Pain features Dan Lukaczer (ND) and Heather Tick (MD) in a wide-ranging talk on why chronic pain is often misunderstood—and mistreated. They explore how central sensitization, movement fear, and mitochondrial dysfunction can amplify pain, and why nutrition, sleep, and toxin load matter more than most realize. Tick explains why we need to reframe pain care around patient participation, not just prescriptions, and how restoring function can begin long before pain fully disappears.
