Unlock the Power of Your Mind for Better Rehab and Wellness with Ryan Spencer

In this episode, Ryan Spencer talks about the fascinating intersection of mindset, the placebo effect, and physical rehabilitation. Drawing from his recent reading of "You Are the Placebo" by Dr. Joe Dispenza, Ryan unpacks how the mind can significantly influence not only our general health but also the effectiveness of treatments, especially in physical therapy.

What you'll learn:

• Understanding the Placebo Effect: How three key elements—conditioning, expectation, and meaning—contribute to the phenomenon known as the placebo effect.
• The Importance of Being 'Evidence-Informed': Why it's crucial for practitioners to strike a balance between strictly evidence-based approaches and practical experience.
• Positive Mindset During Rehab: How your mental outlook can significantly influence your rehabilitation results.
• Science of Mental Rehearsal: Astonishing studies that reveal the mind's ability to affect physical strength and wellness, simply through focused thought.
• Role of Stress in Healing: Why a stressed and negative mindset can increase healing times by up to 40%.
• Intentional Exercise: How focusing on every rep, not just during rehab but also regular exercise, can lead to faster and more effective outcomes.
• Talk to Yourself the Way You'd Talk to a Friend: Why self-talk matters and how to start being kinder to yourself for better results in rehab and life.

Listen in for a holistic view of rehab that goes beyond conventional wisdom and opens the door to a world where the mind plays a pivotal role in healing. Whether you're a patient, a healthcare provider, or someone interested in the untapped potential of the human mind, this episode has something for you. Stay moving, stay healthy, stay active!
