from Chrisy Trudeau
Managing Editor, Epoch Health
Good day,
America is grappling with a chronic pain epidemic as over 50 million Americans endure ongoing discomfort, often presented with limited treatment options. Many of these options are pharmacological, known to carry side effects and provide only modest relief.
Dr. Karima Hirani, a board-certified family medicine doctor with over two decades of experience in integrative and alternative medicine, specializing in pain treatment for over a decade, seeks to offer alternative approaches.
In her book, “What Your Doctor Didn’t Tell You: How Complementary and Alternative Medicine Can Help Your Pain,” Dr. Hirani outlines the challenges within the current profit-driven medical model and highlights how consumer behavior perpetuates it.

Discover cost-effective approaches that yield better results and reduce long-term medication dependence.
