Pain Free is Possible with Lucas Ruhnke</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode of <em>How’d You Do It?</em>, I’m honoured to sit down with Lucas Runke, who opens up about his journey of a routine dental procedure which triggered severe, relentless facial nerve pain that completely upended his life. From being fully alive, building a business, making music, relationships to finding himself living in constant agony, Lucas walks us through the physical, mental, emotional and relational toll, the unbearable pain. He tried everything: neurologists, drugs, surgery, alternative therapies, and nothing gave the roadmap he needed.</p><p><br></p><p>Eventually, Lucas discovered a different path, <em>pain neuro-plasticity</em>, which allowed him to rewrite his relationship to pain. From 24/7 agony to now living, rather than just surviving. Today, Lucas is mostly pain-free, and as a pain-recovery coach he helps people reclaim their lives from chronic pain.</p><p><br></p><p><a href=\"https://www.painfreeispossible.ca/about\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.painfreeispossible.ca/about</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/painfreeispossible?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&amp;igsh=MW8xNXExN2RxZnRjMA==\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram: Pain Free is Possible</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><strong>How can you support the show?</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Having a podcast is such a beautiful experience, however it is time-consuming and has its own expenses.
