Mind Your Body Podcast
At Body and Mind Pain Center, we believe true healing extends beyond managing symptoms. Serving the Los Angeles community, Dr. Zev Nevo has cultivated a unique approach that integrates the best of conventional medicine with evidence-based holistic strategies. We address you as a whole person – mind, body, and spirit – within a framework built on compassion, scientific rigor, and a deep understanding of the factors that contribute to both pain and wellness.
Our Core Pillars:
- Integrative Medicine: We thoughtfully combine advanced medical diagnostics and treatments (offered through our Medical Clinic) with proactive wellness strategies (through our Wellness Clinic). This includes Osteopathic principles, Functional Medicine, Mind-Body therapies, Regenerative Medicine, lifestyle interventions, and more, creating a truly comprehensive care plan.
- Evidence-Based Care: Your health decisions should be grounded in science, not fleeting trends. Dr. Nevo leverages his extensive background, expertise, and certifications to critically evaluate and recommend treatments validated by reliable research. We are committed to transparency about the evidence behind our recommendations.
- Patient-Centered Partnership: You are the expert on your own body and experience. We practice fiduciary care, meaning your best interests always come first. Dr. Nevo fosters a collaborative partnership, taking the time to listen deeply, validate your experience (including the often-overlooked suffering component of pain), and understand your unique goals.
- Empowered & Informed Decisions: We believe knowledge is power. You will receive clear explanations about your condition and all suitable treatment options. Our goal is to empower you to make informed choices that feel right for you, restoring your sense of autonomy in your health journey.
- Mind-Body Connection: We recognize the powerful, bidirectional communication between the mind, brain, nervous system, and body. Addressing psychological factors, stress responses, and nervous system regulation is often crucial for resolving chronic pain and other health challenges like fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, IBS, anxiety, and depression.
- Safety & Co-regulation: Healing happens best when you feel safe. We prioritize creating a nurturing, supportive therapeutic environment. Understanding Polyvagal Theory, we know that fostering a sense of safety through the patient-provider relationship (co-regulation) is essential for calming the nervous system and making it receptive to healing.
- Root Cause Resolution: Especially within our Wellness Clinic, we utilize Functional Medicine principles to look beyond symptoms and investigate the underlying root causes of chronic conditions – exploring factors like gut health, inflammation, hormonal balance, nutrient status, and environmental exposures.
- Integrative & Comprehensive Care: Utilizing Regenerative Rehabilitation to maximize outcomes, combining targeted rehabilitation with regenerative treatments for optimal healing and long-term function.
Moving Beyond Fragmented Care:
Many patients arrive feeling frustrated after navigating the ‘Wild West’ of healthcare – seeing multiple specialists with little coordination. Body and Mind Pain Center offers an integrated haven. Dr. Nevo’s ability to oversee both medical diagnostics/treatments and functional wellness strategies provides a cohesive, streamlined path to relief, recovery, and resilience for Los Angeles residents.
Your Path to Relief and Reliving:
Our ultimate goal is captured in our tagline: Relief to Relive. We strive not just to reduce your pain or manage your condition, but to help you regain function, vitality, and the ability to engage fully in a life you love.
