Hi everyone,

I found this study fascinating:

http://www.thehealthymind.com/2012/12/03/a-doctors-empathy-raises-pain-tolerance-in-patients-study/

Patients were able to raise their tolerance to pain when they were encouraged to discuss their feelings with their doctor. It is an extremely small study, but I thought it was worthwhile to share with you. Mind-body at its best.

I hope you find it helpful.

Kindly,
Dr. Zafirides
