Expand the understanding of your clients by exploring the link between unexplained pain or illness and stress, trauma and emotions with Dr. David Clarke, MD via Zoom. For 40% of patients seen in primary care, pain or illness is not explained by disease or injury. Instead, symptoms are generated by the brain due to present day stress, unrecognized mental health conditions or long-term consequences of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). Fortunately, if you know what to look for, all these sources of stress are treatable, and the pain or illness can be alleviated as successfully as any other form of illness.
