Podcast #006 - Hacking PTSD, TBI, & Trauma - Kelly O'Keefe

Kelly O'Keefe has a background in psychology and natural health. Kelly, a constant and never ending learner was seeking out other natural health modalities to help others. She stumbled across an ad in the newspaper and landed a job as a laser technician at LaserMD Pain Relief in Santa Monica, CA. The lead physician, Dr Kraft, uses a high powered laser to treat people with chronic pain such as frozen shoulder, sciatica, and even fractured bones. One of the most fascinating things Kelly does with the laser is placing it on people 's brains. Patients have seen a decrease or elimination of brain fog, anxiety, PTSD, TBI, nightmares, sleeplessness.

As a biohacker, I love the idea of being able to take control of your own biology without the use of addictive drugs like Zanax, or pain suppressors like cortisone that don't have any actual long term healing effects, but only disguise or diminish the pain for some period of time. This laser is an actual viable solution and people are getting amazing results. Tune into the episode to learn more!
