SCP Podcast Episode 269: The Hidden Intelligence of Water in Healing with Robert Gourlay

Back for another episode is our great friend Robert Gourlay of Mea Water going even more in depth on the healing power of water. Make sure you check out our previous episode with Robert and the link below the show notes. Water is far more than H₂O — it's a living, dynamic system of information and energy. In this episode, Dr. Perry sits down with Robert Gourlay, founder of Mea Water, to explore the science and mystery of structured and energy water — how it forms, how it interacts with the human body, and why its organization might be the missing link in healing, hydration, and cellular communication. Robert shares decades of research on how water holds memory, responds to energy fields, and connects all biological systems. You'll learn how structured water supports the body's natural bioelectrical flow, enhances lymphatic and mitochondrial function, and restores coherence to the fluid network of life — your internal Body Aquarium. This conversation will change how you see water forever. Previous Episode Link: link:  SCP Podcast Episode 254: Mea Water – Structured Water with Robert Gourlay

SCP Podcast Episode 268: Dr. Nasha Winters - The Metabolic Approach To Cancer

On this episode of the Stop Chasing Pain Podcast, Dr. Perry Nickelston sits down with Dr. Nasha Winters, a global thought leader in integrative oncology and author of The Metabolic Approach to Cancer. Together, they dive into the revolutionary framework Dr. Winters has developed to help patients and practitioners alike rethink cancer care. This conversation explores how metabolic health, bio-individualized therapies, and the power of nutrition can shift the way we approach prevention, treatment, and long-term healing. Highlights from Dr. Winters' book include: How cancer is not just a genetic disease but a metabolic one, deeply tied to cellular energy and mitochondrial function. The role of the ketogenic diet and therapeutic nutrition in starving cancer cells while nourishing healthy tissues. The impact of toxin exposure and why reducing environmental and lifestyle stressors is key to healing. The importance of balancing the terrain—hormones, inflammation, immune function, microbiome, and emotional resilience. Using bio-individualized therapies—tailoring interventions to each person's unique biology rather than a one-size-fits-all model. Why building metabolic flexibility and resilience isn't just for cancer patients, but a roadmap for all of us who want to live healthier, longer, more vibrant lives. This episode is a must-listen if you want to understand the future of cancer care through the lens of whole-body healing. Website for Dr. Winters Book Purchase here

SCP Podcast Episode 267: Dr. Emily Splichal - Feet and Movement Longevity

Dr. Emily Splichal returns as a guest to discuss her transformative journey—from conventional surgical training to pioneering sensory-based, functional podiatry—and to introduce her new book, Sensory Sapiens. In it, she presents a sensory-centric framework for movement that champions the foot (and entire sensory system) as the key to longevity, balance, and injury prevention. Notably, she details how our body's sensory intelligence—specifically through textured stimulation of the feet—enhances balance and proprioception; how foot stimulation supports bone density and even brain health by activating deeper tissues and circulation; how sensory stacking—layering various sensory inputs into movement practices—supercharges rehabilitation and performance; and how everyday contact with gravity as a "sensory hug" grounds and recalibrates both body and nervous system. Sensory Sapiens offers a compelling, research-backed blueprint for anyone wanting to age well and move better, organically and holistically. Dr. Emily Splichal is a functional podiatrist and human movement specialist who initially trained as a surgeon at Beth Israel Medical Center (NYC) and Mt. Vernon Hospital before shifting in 2017 to a practice grounded in functional and regenerative medicine s She's founder and CEO of Naboso, a sensory-technology company devoted to awakening the nervous system via the feet—and soon the hands—with textured products and neuro-stimulators. A globally recognized leader in barefoot science, she has educated over 25,000 professionals across 35 countries and created the Barefoot Training Specialist® certification and EBFA Global. She is also the author of Barefoot Strong and now Sensory Sapiens, continuing her mission to help people move better and live longer by reconnecting with their sensory selves.

SCP Mini Podcast: Thoracic Spine Linchpin To Chronic Neck And Back Pain

The thoracic spine is one of the most overlooked keys to resolving chronic neck and back pain. Acting as the central anchor between the cervical and lumbar regions, it influences posture, breathing, rib motion, and spinal stability. When the thoracic spine becomes stiff or restricted, the neck and lower back are forced to compensate, often leading to overuse, tension, and pain. Because it's deeply connected to the ribcage and diaphragm, thoracic mobility also affects circulation, lymphatic flow, and nervous system balance.  In other words, if you only treat the painful areas without restoring movement and pressure balance through the thoracic spine, the cycle of chronic pain continues. It's not just a middle piece of the spine—it's the missing link in many healing journeys. Joint By Joint Video Here
