Chronic Pain: What Works When Opioids Don’t? | Dennis Keyes

What actually helps chronic pain when opioids are not the answer? In this episode of The Healthcare Revolution Podcast, Brad Powell sits down with Dennis Keyes, FNP-C, to explore a whole person approach to pain management and why better care often means looking beyond the prescription pad. They discuss how the opioid epidemic changed pain medicine, why function should matter as much as pain levels, and how nutrition, sleep, body weight, movement, and lifestyle can influence chronic pain. They also break down where physical therapy, acupuncture, massage, CBD, medical cannabis, and other treatments may fit into a broader recovery plan. The goal is not to find one miracle treatment. It is to build the right combination of tools that helps you move better, function better, and get more of your life back. #ChronicPain #PainManagement #PhysicalTherapy #OpioidAlternatives #HolisticHealth #ChronicPainRelief #HealthcareRevolution
