In this year-end episode, Dr. Kevin Wall looks back on the most talked-about conversations and viral clips from this past year, then ties them together with one consistent theme: real health isn’t a magic bullet. It’s simple habits, consistent care, and the courage to question quick-fix thinking.

Headaches
Nerve pain vs. muscle pain
Neuropathy & blood sugar
Pre-diabetes warning signs
Hormones & metabolism
Diabetes reality check
Cold plunging & discomfort tolerance
Muscle + fasting + autophagy
Gluten & gut health

The 7 Stages of Lower Back Pain (And How to Escape Them) | Dr. Wall | Ep. 46

What if your “bad back” isn’t random at all, but a predictable progression you could have interrupted years ago? 
Dr. Kevin Wall pulls back the curtain on the seven stages of lower back pain, why sitting has become its own “pandemic,” and how your gut, your nervous system, and even big pharma all intersect in the story of your spine. After 36 years of treating thousands of patients, he maps out the pathway from “I’m just a little stiff” to “I’ve given up my life because of pain”—and how to get off that road at any stage.
Dr. Wall also shares the moment that changed the trajectory of his career: doing pharmaceutical research that didn’t actually prove what the published papers claimed it did. That experience sent him into chiropractic, integrated health clinics, and eventually into helping patients address the deeper metabolic and gut issues that keep their pain coming back.

Your Posture Is Silently Destroying Your Health! | Dr James Stoxen | Ep. 45

What if the posture your family lives in today determines the health your grandchildren live with tomorrow?
In this episode, Dr. Wall sits down with world-renowned physician, author, and chronic pain expert Dr. James Stoxen to expose one of the fastest-growing diagnoses in modern healthcare: text neck and the far more dangerous evolution of it — thoracic outlet syndrome.
We’re living in a generation that no longer lifts, bends, or labors physically. Instead, we’re hunched over phones and screens, collapsing our spines, starving our nerves, and creating an inflammation storm that’s not only wrecking our posture, but it’s wrecking our mood, our sleep, and our long-term health.
Dr. Stoxen breaks down:
Why tech-driven posture is reversing the natural S-curve we were designed to develop
The hidden signs of thoracic outlet syndrome.
How chronic inflammation triggers anxiety, depression, and accelerated aging
The 24–30 hour deep-tissue system he uses to clear inflammation and rebuild the body’s natural spring
How parents can detect early warning signs in their children and prevent this epidemic from becoming generational
Guest Bio:
Dr. James Stoxen is a #1 international bestselling author and one of the world’s leading experts on thoracic outlet syndrome, biomechanics, and natural recovery from chronic pain.

Evicting the Itis Brothers: Unplugging from Arthritis | Dr. Mareshah Dunning | Ep. 44

Have the “itis brothers” moved into your life, tendonitis, bursitis, gastritis, myositis… and their loudest cousins, rheumatoid and osteoarthritis? In this episode, Dr. Kevin Wall sits down with regenerative pain specialist Dr. Mareshah Dunning to expose why so many of us are stuck with chronic joint pain, endless diagnoses, and lifetime prescriptions, and what you can actually do to evict the itis brothers for good.
Dr. Wall and Dr. Dunning unpack what “-itis” really means (spoiler: it just means inflammation), why naming your pain is not the same as finding the cause, and how our current medical model plays a game of “name that tune” with your symptoms. Instead of asking “What pill matches this diagnosis?” they ask the better question: “Why is this tissue inflamed in the first place?”
Guest Bio:
Dr. Mareshah Dunning is an Interventional Naturopathic Regenerative Medicine Pain Physician with Solutions Regenerative Medicine, practicing out of the Neil Riordan Center for Regenerative Medicine in Tempe, Arizona. Her clinical focus is pain management with a regenerative mindset, helping patients move beyond numbing their symptoms to actually addressing the deeper causes of joint and tissue degeneration.
She treats a wide range of conditions, from osteoarthritis and tendonitis to autoimmune-driven joint disease, always aiming to restore function, reduce pain, and get patients back to living their lives, playing with their kids, staying active, and doing what they love, without becoming dependent on opioids or endless steroid injections. Dr. Dunning is also passionate about patient education, helping people understand epigenetics, lifestyle, diet, and biomechanics so they can take back control of their health.

GREATEST HITS: How to Unravel Anxiety | Dr. Don Worcester | Ep. 43

Anxiety is at an all-time high, but what if a lot of what you’re feeling is actually a false alarm instead of a life sentence? In this greatest hits conversation, Dr. Kevin Wall sits down with his longtime friend and counselor, Dr. Don Worcester, to unpack why anxiety is so rampant, how our imaginations fuel it, and what it really takes to step off the loop and onto a bigger track.
Together, they dig into the difference between feeling and function, why pain is often the last thing to show and the first thing to go, and why waiting for symptoms before you act is like waiting for a root canal before you see the dentist. Dr. Don explains anxiety as something we experience in the absence of love, using powerful illustrations: darkness as the absence of light, cold as the absence of heat, and anxiety as the “virtual reality headset” your brain forgets it’s wearing.

With over 25 years of experience, he specializes in helping couples strengthen their relationships through retreats and online resources, alongside his wife, Renee.

Home Birth vs. Hospital: What the Data (and Your Body) Say | Elizabeth Davis CPM | Ep. 41

Do we really need 15 people, an IV, and a timer to welcome a baby—or have we drifted from what the body was built to do?
Dr. Kevin Wall sits down with veteran midwife, educator, and author Elizabeth Davis (40+ years in birth work) to unpack when home birth is safer, how midwives screen risk, and why birth hormones (oxytocin, beta-endorphins, noradrenaline) matter for bonding, breastfeeding, and postpartum mental health. They compare intervention-heavy hospital norms (inductions, Pitocin, epidurals, C-sections) with midwifery care that screens out high-risk moms, monitors vitals continuously, transports when needed, and stays with families after the birth. You’ll hear practical “do this next” steps for pregnancy and the first 10–12 days postpartum.
What They Cover:
Why 70% of pregnancies may be lower-risk—and what that means for place of birth
How midwives screen out risk (history, labs, vitals, ongoing assessments)
Birth hormones 101: how interventions can short-circuit bonding & bleeding control
Induction & Pitocin: when it’s used vs. when “watchful patience” wins
C-section rates: why the default matters for lifelong mom & baby health
Safety net: when and how midwives do transport—and the emergency skills they carry
Postpartum reality: daily home visits, breastfeeding support, and preventing crash-and-burn
Guest Bio:
Renowned expert Elizabeth Davis has been a midwife, holistic health care specialist, educator, and political consultant for over 40 years. She is internationally active in promoting physiologic birth and is widely sought after for her expertise in midwifery education and organizational development. She holds a degree in Holistic Maternity Care, is a certified professional midwife (CPM) in good standing, and is co-founder of the MEAC-accredited National Midwifery Institute, Inc.
Her journey began in the late 1970’s, when direct-entry midwifery was illegal in most the United States. Having personally experienced the contrast between a violent, abusive hospital birth and an ecstatic, glorious home birth, she felt called to do something to help create the organizational and political infrastructure to make birth at home widely available in the US.
To this end, she was a founding member of:
The Midwives Alliance of North America (open to midwives of all educational backgrounds), whom she served as Pacific Regional Representative and Education Committee Chair for five years. The North American Registry of Midwives NARM (administers the direct-entry credential of Certified Professional Midwife), for whom she called the initial meeting to develop the certification process, gathering midwife representatives from 40 states. The Midwifery Education Accreditation Council MEAC (accrediting body for direct-entry midwifery programs), whom she served as President for one term and for four years on the Board of Directors.

Diabetes & Metabolic Reset with RN Yvette Oxford | Ep. 40

It’s time to wake up and unplug from the confusion around diabetes and “managing” symptoms. Dr. Kevin Wall sits down with registered nurse and metabolic health educator Yvette Oxford to expose what’s happening behind the curtain of diabetes care—and to share a simple, common-sense path to reverse course. From insulin resistance to PCOS, ED, fatty liver, and cardiovascular risk, Yvette explains how food choices, fasting windows, muscle training, and targeted nutraceuticals can flip your body back to fat-fuel, quiet cravings, and restore metabolic health. Health is simpler than you think—here’s how to start.
What we cover
Why type 1 and type 2 are different diseases requiring different approaches
The business of “eat, inject, repeat” vs. real reversal
Insulin as a fat-storage signal (and how to turn it down)
The 4 keystones: prioritize protein, don’t fear healthy fats, time-restrict eating, and therapeutically reduce carbs
Why many adults do best around ≤20g net carbs/day during a reset
Metformin, GLP-1s, and what lifestyle can replace or reduce
Metabolic links to PCOS, ED, fatty liver, hypertension, and “type 3” (Alzheimer’s) risk
A practical metabolic reset you can begin this week
Hope stories: A1c down, triglycerides down, HDL up, waistlines down
 
Guest Bio:
Yvette Oxford is a registered nurse and metabolic health educator with a rare 360° view of the system—spanning elite sports massage, hospital bedside care, ER/trauma, diabetes device training, and pharmaceutical sales. After years inside traditional pathways, she returned to wellness education to help people reverse the patterns driving type 2 diabetes and metabolic disease. Yvette specializes in insulin resistance, therapeutic carb reduction, fasting strategies, and evidence-informed nutraceutical support. She coaches clients on reading labs, building muscle-centric nutrition, and asking the right seven questions at the doctor’s office—so patients stop outsourcing their health and start taking it back.

Misunderstood Causes of Your Anxiety, Depression, and Memory Loss | Dr. Wall | Ep. 38

Dr. Wall wraps our mental health series with a provocative question: could mold exposure and parasites be fueling anxiety, depression, brain fog, even memory issues? Dr. Wall connects the dots between mycotoxins, immune inflammation, neurotransmitter disruption, nutrient theft, and practical next steps to reclaim clarity.
Key Takeaways
Vitamin G recap: Gratitude and depression/anxiety can’t coexist—make gratitude a daily “dose.”
Your mess = your stress: Clutter and disorganization raise stress hormones, disrupt sleep, and worsen mental health.
Mold 101: Prolonged exposure → immune activation + inflammation, mycotoxins that disrupt neurotransmitters, worsened allergies/asthma → lower oxygenation and higher anxiety.
Parasites & mood: Direct neuro-invasion, chronic immune activation, nutrient theft (B-vitamins, omega-3s), and even behavior manipulation can present like anxiety, depression, brain fog, and memory issues.
What to do:
Identify and remediate sources of moisture/mold (consider professional testing; in stubborn cases, relocation may be necessary).
Kill & clear: Structured parasite protocols; then binders/detox support.
Rebuild brain nutrition: Omega-3s, B-complex, magnesium, zinc, iron (as indicated), vitamin D + sunlight exposure (see prior “light” episode).
Keep it simple: food, water, sunlight, order—then targeted support.
