This episode will totally change your view on both the science of pain and on our brain itself! Today I am joined by one of the leading world expert on Pain Science, Dr.Mark Hutchinson who is a Professor within the Adelaide Medical School and is the Director of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Nanoscale BioPhotonics in Australia. His leading work on immunology of the brain and pain science has now discovered that our thoughts and emotions have an actual effect on our immunity and overall health. These so-called pattern recognition receptors and other molecules might just be the interface between our thoughts and actual immune response. This episode can be thought of as the science which is bringing serious western "clout" to eastern medicine. Special shout out to Dan O'Brien Director of Sport Medicine and Research at the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) in New York who connected Dr.Hutchinson and I.
You can kind of think of this episode as East Meets West medicine. Many of the things in this episode shared can not only impact your journey after injury but also help boost your immune system during these times as we continue our fight against the coronavirus. Enjoy!

There has never been such an abrupt halt in Sports operations at the scholastic, collegiate, and professional level. Now is such a perfect moment for many athletes to press that much needed reset button taking a positive in such a seemingly negative time. Instead of posting #Daynumber...without any baseball, it is time to become more comfortable in the calm and search within to figure out who you are not just as an athlete but as a person to become a limitless athlete!

Danny Arroyo @limitless369 embodies the definition of a limitless athlete ever since he took the plunge into his spiritual side while playing college and indie league baseball. Danny was dissatisfied with the toxic lifestyle he was living that many high level athletes have difficulty breaking away from and went down a path of learning about higher forces and searched within. Now Danny has become a holistic health coach where he integrates diet, essential oils, meditation, and overall service to others in order to uplift both his own game as he continues to play baseball at a high level, in addition to those he serves in the peace run organization which was started by Sri Chinmoy who he credits as one of his early teachers through studying his philosophy.

Hello and welcome back to the injured to elite podcast with your host me Dr. Dave Meyer Dream Coach and Performance Physical Therapist. Today we have an extraordinary guest, Mateo Difontaine. The story you are about to hear is graphic, emotional, and like no other story you have heard before. Mateo is a world renowned DJ, part of the band the Fun Lovin Criminals and performing for some of the most exclusive Hollywood parties including the Oscars Vanity Fair After Party, to spinning records on yachts off the coast of the south of france with some of the most prestigious artists in the world. Mateo’s life as he knew it came to a temporary halt 5 years ago in May of 2015. I had the grateful opportunity to sit down with Mateo in Brooklyn, just this past week where he graciously shared with me his mind-blowing story. Now, I apologize for the audio quality being a bit less than what I have previously given you all, but in Brooklyn you never know when the sirens are going to blare or the helicopters are going to fly overhead. I wanted to keep this as authentic as possible and unedited as Mateo shares his story less than 2 miles where the notorious BIG Biggie smalls grew up. Please keep your hearts and minds open and receptive as you are about to hear a personal and miraculous story from an absolute legend who continues to defy the odds.
