Emily Harman, the host of Onward Podcast, interviews world champion para-cyclist Clara Brown. Clara, was an avid athlete as a competitive gymnast, runner, and skier before sustaining an incomplete spinal cord injury at the C5/C6 level at age 12. Clara moved to the Shepherd Center in Atlanta, where they specialize in spinal cord and brain injury rehabilitation, and it was there that she began to get some feeling and function back. She started walking on the treadmill and made great progress. A few months later, however, Clara began experiencing excruciating pain in her left leg and was diagnosed with avascular necrosis, which was cutting off the blood supply and causing bone to die. Listen to this episode and learn about Clara’s amazing journey and how she is racing towards the Paralympics in Tokyo.

Emily Harman, the host of Onward Podcast, interviews Eugene G. Lipov, M.D., a physician researcher and board-certified anesthesiologist who specializes in intervention-based pain management in the Chicago area. He is best known for his treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder using the Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB). The SGB is the first truly biologic approach to PTSD/PTSI. SGB is an old procedure that has been used for pain treatment since 1925. It takes only 10 minutes to perform and is believed to reverse neurological changes induced by severe trauma that leads to PTSD/PTSI symptoms. The SGB procedure involves the injection of a local anesthetic, typically under x-ray guidance, into a nerve bundle called the stellate ganglion, located between the C6 and C7 vertebrae. It is considered to carry minimal risk, and usually offers rapid (30 minutes) and enduring (month to years) relief.
