The Most Painful Podcast

By: Chronic Pain Center of Excellence Story Studio Network
  • Summary

  • Welcome to The Most Painful Podcast! This podcast covers all aspects of chronic pain by presenting evidence-based information that provides better insight into chronic pain. Recent Government of Canada research found that Veterans are twice as likely to suffer from chronic pain compared to others in the Canadian population. We aim to investigate how this impacts Veterans and their families. We explore topics such as cannabis and psychedelics, and do they help treat chronic pain? We also investigate back surgery, military identity and what military and professional athletes have in common with identity. The evidence-based information on the show will help Veterans, clinicians, researchers, and anyone suffering from chronic pain. It is a 360-degree approach to education on chronic pain.

  • Medical Hypnosis for Opioid Use
    Jun 26 2024
    Opioids are one treatment for post-surgery pain management. As we have heard in the media, opioids may have a negative impact on a patient. That sparks the question; what other treatments are available to help manage post-surgical pain?

    One such treatment is the use of hypnosis. On this episode, Tom Hoppe is joined by Dr. Brittany Rosenbloom, a clinical and health psychologist and associate scientist at the Toronto Academic Pain Medicine Institute and co-author of a research project studying the effectiveness of hypnosis to help with post-surgical pain.

  • Well-Being and Transition for CFL Athletes
    Jun 12 2024
    Purpose and identity are important in the biopsychosocialspirtitual model of chronic pain. In previous seasons, we spoke about the similarities between military Veterans and professional athletes, especially when it comes to identity, mindset and transition when leaving the service or sport.

    But what are some organizations doing to help their athletes transition and deal with chronic pain management? On this episode, Tom Hoppe is joined by Brian Ramsey, Executive Director of the Canadian Football League (CFL) Players Association (CFLPA).
