Did you know the physician is only one tool in the toolbox to fix your pain? Physicians are just one aspect. The rest comes from the patient overcoming their pain and it doesn't have to do with medication! Dr. Ravi Dhanoa joins us on the podcast to talk about his experience with trigger points and how he uses them to solve pain or even recreate the pain. More importantly, he goes into detail about how the patient is capable of overcoming their pain with just a few sessions.
The MuscleMD clinic was opened in 2014 by Dr Ravi Dhanoa, a Canadian Family Physician with a special interest in Trigger Point Injection therapy.
