Description

Why does the body hold on, even after great treatment?

In this episode of the Unreal Results podcast, I sit down with Dr. Satya Sardonicus for a wide-ranging conversation about nervous system regulation, fascia, and the body’s innate intelligence. We unpack why many clients stay stuck in survival mode, how dural and fascial tension influence the central nervous system, and why true healing requires more than just the right technique.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • How the autonomic nervous system shapes pain, movement, and perception
  • Why overtreating tissues can reinforce protective patterns
  • What “capacity” means in treatment—and how to recognize it in real time
  • How clinicians can reduce burnout by shifting their role in the healing process

This episode is less about fixing and more about creating the conditions that allow the body to reorganize itself. If you’re a clinician who senses there’s more happening beneath the surface of pain and movement patterns, this conversation will help you see regulation, resilience, and recovery through a more integrated lens.

Considering the viscera as a source of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction is a great way to ensure a more true whole body approach to care, however it can be a bit overwhelming on where to start, which is exactly why I created the Visceral Referral Cheat Sheet.
