Stop trying to "fix" your symptoms

Every doctor's visit reinforces the message that something is broken in your body.

Every MRI scan, every X-ray, every blood test sends a danger signal to your brain: 

"Keep searching for the problem. Keep creating protection."

Every failed treatment becomes more evidence that your body is damaged.

Dr. Howard Schubiner's research shows this creates what scientists call a "pain-fear cycle":

1. Pain triggers feelings of fear

2. The fear puts your brain on high alert, which creates more pain

3. Which leads to more fear

4. Which leads to more pain

The more you try to fix the symptoms, the more your brain interprets this as confirmation that you're in danger.

And that shows the hidden cost of staying in “fix it mode”

While you're focused on finding the structural cause, your nervous system remains stuck in survival mode. Your brain continues interpreting safe signals from your body as dangerous…

…Making the pain fear cycle strengthen everyday.

All while societies solutions like the medical system, medication, and expensive talk therapies look to heal damage that often isn’t there.

But what instead of chasing to fix your symptoms, you could retrain your brain to stop creating them?

That's exactly what Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) does.

PRT was developed by clinical psychologists and tested in rigorous clinical trials. Published in JAMA Psychiatry, the research shows that 66% of people with chronic back pain became pain-free or nearly pain-free in just 4 weeks.

Step 1: Education About Brain-Generated Pain 

You learn that pain is a danger signal created by your brain. 

Sometimes these danger signals activate even when there's no tissue damage, like a smoke alarm going off when you're making dinner.

Step 2: Gathering Evidence for Safety 

You and your therapist identify all the evidence that your pain is neuroplastic rather than structural:

• Symptoms that move around your body

• Pain that flares with stress, even at rest

• MRI results that don't match your symptoms

• Times when you felt no pain despite doing "dangerous" activities

Step 3: Somatic Tracking 

This is the core technique. You learn to attend to pain sensations through a lens of safety rather than fear.

Instead of thinking: 

"This burning means damage"

You practice thinking: 

"This is just my brain's alarm system. My back is healthy. This burning isn't dangerous, it's like the warmth of a hot shower."

Step 4: Safety Reappraisal 

You practice reinterpreting the sensations:

"We all feel sensations in our backs when we bend because our muscles are being stretched. It's often a nice sensation. It's just that your brain is interpreting this sensation through a lens of danger. But your muscles, tendons, and ligaments are all healthy. This is safe.”

Why does PRT work so well.?

The research shows this creates measurable changes in brain activity:

• Reduced activation in the amygdala (fear center)

• Decreased activity in pain-processing regions

• Normalized threat detection networks

Your nervous system finally receives the message: 

"We're safe. We can stop creating protective symptoms."

This is just one of many techniques I teach inside Brain-Based Healing.

The clinical protocols from Pain Reprocessing Therapy, combined with somatic tracking, nervous system regulation, and evidence-based neuroplasticity techniques.

Not positive thinking or "mind over matter."

But the same evidence-based approaches used in clinical trials helped 66% of chronic pain patients become pain-free in 4 weeks.
