How the Brain to Body System Provides Chronic Pain Relief in Fresno, TX

To reverse chronic pain and/or nerve disease, areas of the body that have become weak due to disease or injury must be strengthened. This includes your brain, nerves, muscles, blood vessels, and cells. Our experts here at Texas Nerve and Spine developed the most advanced pain and nerve therapy system to do all of this and more, and we call it the Brain to Body System.

From fibromyalgia and disc herniations to diabetic neuropathy and sciatica, our Brain to Body System helps restore your health and corrects the causes of your problems. Unlike treatments from other nerve and spine clinics, our system provides long-term relief without relying on invasive surgeries or dangerously addictive pharmaceutical medications.

To understand how our Brain to Body System solves chronic pain and similar conditions like nerve disease, you need a basic knowledge of the conditions themselves. That way, you can understand why so many who suffer from them rarely improve.

Chronic Pain

Chronic Pain

This is a type of pain that does not get better on its own or that doesn't alleviate after traditional medical treatments or prescription pain meds.

Nerve Disease

Nerve Disease

This is a type of pain that does not get better on its own or that doesn't alleviate after traditional medical treatments or prescription pain meds.

Chronic pain from nerve diseases and serious injuries causes a domino effect within your body. It starts with inflammation, which leads to decreased blood supply. This reduced blood supply results in a lack of oxygen. When your body doesn't get enough oxygen, it loses crucial nutrients that your body needs. This progressive effect often leads to long-term problems such as:

  • Chronic Pain
  • Motor-Function Loss
  • Loss of Sensation
  • Muscular Atrophy
  • Loss of Movement
  • Depression

But with Texas Nerve and Spine's Brain to Body system, patients suffering from chronic pain and nerve disease build strength through rehabilitation. This advanced system helps:

  • Stimulate New Nerve Pathways
  • Strengthen and Grow Muscles
  • Promotes Cellular Repair
  • Improves Circulation and Blood Flow

Our Brain to Body System is central to our approach to chronic musculoskeletal pain relief and chronic nerve pain relief in Fresno, TX. By following the Brain to Body system, we can provide several services to patients suffering from chronic pain and nerve damage.

EWOT:Exercise with Oxygen Therapy

Here's a fact you might not know: Breathing in higher levels of oxygen than you normally take in actually helps improve your health. Also called EWOT, exercising with oxygen is a technique that increases oxygen circulation at a much more rapid pace than oxygen therapy alone. Create New Blood Cells

How Does EWOT Work?

At Texas Nerve and Spine, our doctors use the NuStep Recumbent Cross Trainer to help achieve the aforementioned benefits. This specialized machine trains your muscles, brain, and nerves to work together, which supports your body's healing processes. While using the NuStep Recumbent Cross Trainer, patients are hooked up to an oxygen generator to enjoy the benefits of EWOT and reach their chronic pain relief goals.

When you oxygenate your blood with EWOT, it can have amazing benefits that can:

  • Restore Blood Flow
  • Improve Oxygen Circulation
  • Reduce Inflammation
  • Boost Energy
  • Increase Strength

TherapyFlexion/Distraction Therapy

Many patients who visit Texas Nerve and Spine are suffering from an injury or disease of the vertebral discs of their spine. It requires the right kind of care from highly specialized doctors. If you're in search of a safe, gentle, controlled treatment for back and spinal pain, Flexion Distraction therapy may be for you.

 Knee Pain Specialist Fresno, TX

How Does Flexion/Distraction Therapy Work?

Finding relief for this type of condition and pain is often easier said than done. Fortunately, relief is right around the corner at Texas Nerve and Spine. Our Flexion/Distraction Table stretches the spine safely and gently, allowing injured tissue and damaged discs the chance to heal and become hydrated, which lets the affected area recover more effectively and efficiently.

Patients looking for chronic back and neck pain relief in Fresno, TX choose Flexion/Distraction therapy because it:

  • Significantly Reduces Spinal Pain
  • Fosters Healing in Damaged Discs
  • Removes Pressure on Spinal Nerves
  • Is Non-Invasive
  • Is Cost-Effective
  • Does Not Require Downtime
  • Has No Risk of Infection
  • Provides Quicker, Easier Healing

LaserLaser Therapy

With more than 50 million adults in America suffering from chronic pain, it makes sense that most of them want a solution that doesn't require pain medication or harmful surgery. That's where laser therapy from Texas Nerve and Spine comes into play. Laser therapy has been used for therapeutic purposes in medical environments for years. In fact, it is FDA-approved and backed by more than 2,500 research studies, which have demonstrated its efficacy in chronic musculoskeletal pain relief in Fresno, TX.

How Does Laser Therapy Work?

Though laser therapy is a common treatment option, not all lasers are the same. Our Class IV laser therapy, used in all applicable programs, is the most efficacious and powerful laser available for tissue healing and regeneration and healing. Class IV lasers use photobiomodulation, which provides excellent results for Musculoskeletal disorders. This process has also been proven to help with other various conditions that cause chronic pain, such as sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, low back pain, shoulder pain, and much more.

Our chronic pain patients choose laser therapy from Texas Nerve and Spine because it:

  • Provides Significant Relief Without Pain or Side Effects
  • Cost-Effective
  • Reduce Inflammation
  • Boost Blood Flow
  • Accelerate Tissue Repair

TherapyMotor Function Re-Training Therapy

When your motor functions are limited or non-existent due to a serious injury or surgery, it can ruin your life. You lose the ability to be independent - one of the hallmarks of being human. Fortunately, with motor function re-training at Texas Nerve and Spine, patients suffering from motor function issues have a light at the end of the tunnel. This type of specialized physical therapy helps people recover from injuries or surgeries that leave their motor functions lacking. The goal of motor function re-training is to regain coordination and strength in the areas affecting the patient.

Motor function re-training therapy is a crucial part of the motor function rehabilitation process because it helps patients regain the independence they lost. Perhaps equally important, it also helps them return to their original level of motor function or better.

 Herniated Disc Specialist Fresno, TX

How Does Motor Function Re-Training Work?

Based on our Brain to Body system, our specialists design custom exercise programs based on our patient's motor function needs. Depending on the type of injury and lack of motor skills associated with it, we may also use electrical stimulation and other modalities for more effective treatment and recovery.

Motor function re-training provides many benefits for affected patients, including:

  • Improved Flexibility
  • More Strength
  • Better Range of Motion
  • Re-Claim Independence
  • Live a Normal Life

ReleaseMyofascial Release Therapy

Myofascial Release therapy gives patients chronic pain relief in Fresno, TX, and boosts joint mobility by loosening up restricted, tight muscles. Though there are similarities to traditional massages, myofascial release therapy focuses on soft tissues and the muscular system in your body to relieve tension and stress on muscles.

How Does Myofascial Release Therapy Work?

Restricted muscles have reduced blood flow and less oxygen. When this happens, it leads to limited movement and pain that is often intense. Our program uses state-of-the-art technology to apply acute, high-velocity vibration directly to the affected tissue to provide the patient with the environment necessary to increase mobility which, over time, can exponentially reduce pain

Benefits of this type of treatment include:

  • Improved Tissue Recovery
  • Reduced Soreness
  • Improved Joint Range of Motion
  • Improved Blood Flow
  • Better Neuromuscular Efficiency
 Herniated Disc Therapy Fresno, TX

ActivationNeuro Activation Wall Therapy

As is the case with any spinal cord injury, the nerves around the spine get weak. When this happens, pain develops, and recovery is halted. Suppose you're searching for a safe, effective way to deal with a painful spine issue like sciatica or a herniated disc. In that case, neuro impulse therapy is a great chronic nerve pain treatment in Fresno, TX. Unlike common chiropractic treatments, this advanced therapy does not involve any "cracking" or significant adjustments.

 Leg Pain Specialist Fresno, TX

How Does Neuro Activation Wall Therapy Work?

Any type of injury can cause dysfunction and weakness in your brain. To improve cognition and the neurological connection between the brain, the muscles, and the nerves, some injured patients choose to undergo interactive neurocognitive therapy using our neuro activation wall. Our neuro activation wall retains, strengthens, and restores proper function to the brain and nervous system without relying on medications or outlandish therapies.

Texas Nerve and Spine patients choose neuro activation wall therapy because it:

  • Improves Cognition
  • Strengthens Nerves That Have Been Damaged
  • Boosts Balance and Mobility
  • Is Non-Invasive
  • Does Not Require Addictive Medicines
  • Does Not Require Recovery Time
  • Does Not Present Any Risk of Infection

TherapyNeuro Impulse Therapy

As is the case with any spinal cord injury, the nerves around the spine get weak. When this happens, pain develops, and recovery is halted. Suppose you're searching for a safe, effective way to deal with a painful spine issue like sciatica or a herniated disc. In that case, neuro impulse therapy is a great chronic nerve pain treatment in Fresno, TX. Unlike common chiropractic treatments, this advanced therapy does not involve any "cracking" or significant adjustments.

How Does Neuro Impulse Therapy Work?

  • Re-Training Nerves to Work Again
  • Strengthen Nerves
  • Dramatically Speed Up Injury Recovery
  • Quickly Reduces Pain
 Leg Pain Therapy Fresno, TX

PeripheralNeuropathy Rehabilitation

Peripheral neuropathy occurs when there is a lack of blood flow to the nerves in areas like your feet and hands. When these nerves are devoid of blood, they begin to decay and degenerate because they don't have enough oxygen or nutrients. Eventually, the nerves in your body shrivel up, causing pain, numbness, balance problems, and other painful symptoms.

How Does Peripheral Neuropathy Rehabilitation Work?

Our Brain to Body program works wonders for neuropathy issues like these by using state-of-the-art technology like laser therapy and personalized, strategic plans of action created around our patient's needs. If you're looking for both short and long-term pain relief from peripheral neuropathy, this could be the solution you need.

TherapySpinal Decompression Therapy

Spinal conditions range in severity from barely noticeable to absolutely crippling. To get to the bottom of your spine conditions, our team uses X-Rays to pinpoint the location of your spine's disease. From there, we craft a custom rehabilitation program that addresses the underlying causes of your spine pain. Often, part of that therapy includes spinal decompression.

Pain Specialist Fresno, TX

How Does Spinal Decompression Therapy Work?

Spinal decompression works by gently stretching the spine. When the spine is stretched, it changes its position. This change relieves pressure off the discs in your spine, which act as cushions in your back. By creating negative pressure, herniated and bulging discs retract, giving the nerves and structures in your back relief. This relief sends nutrient-rich fluids and oxygen to the discs in your back so they can heal properly.

River Park’s latest restaurant is open for dinner.

Texas de Brazil Churrascaria Steakhouse has taken over the former Chevy’s Fresno Mex spot that closed in late 2016 — and it looks drastically different from its predecessor.

Texas de Brazil serves churrasco, meats that are slow roasted on skewers over an open flame that can be seen from the dining room.

Gauchos — waiters dressed as Brazilian cowboys in loose pants and thick leather belts — bring the skewers to the tables to cut individual portions. Customers pull the cuts off with tongs. When they want more meat they place a green card on the table. When they want to take a break from eating, they flip to the red side.

The restaurant usually has about 15 kinds of meat on the menu, with some rotating options. They include: picanha (top sirloin), garlic picanha, braised beef ribs, pork loin, Brazilian sausages, chicken breast wrapped in bacon, Alcatra (Portuguese pot roast), lamb chops, leg of lamb, Parmesan-crusted pork loin, filet mignon, bacon-wrapped filet mignon, barbecue pork ribs and Parmesan chicken drumettes.

General manager Jamie-Lee Slaten said the picanha is the star of the menu.

“It’s Brazil’s most famous cut, very tender,” she said. “It has a ring of fat around it, so it’s well flavored. It melts in your mouth. It’s wonderful.”

Gauchos also bring fried bananas to the table, which are used to cleanse the palate, along with mashed potatoes and Brazilian bread.

Texas de Brazil also has an upscale salad area that includes 50 options like sushi, cold cuts, couscous and the more traditional salad options. It includes at least five hot dishes, like lobster bisque, potatoes au gratin and feijoada, a Brazilian black bean stew.

“You can absolutely make a meal just on that alone,” Slaten said.

Full dinners cost $44.99, which includes the meat and the salad area. The salad area alone costs $24.99. There are discounts for children that vary according to age.

Drinks and desserts cost extra. The restaurant has more than 100 wines and its bar specializes in the Brazilian cocktail caipirinha. It’s made with limes, sugar and cachaça, a Brazilian spirit made from sugar cane.

People familiar with the old Chevy’s might be shocked when they walk in the door. Walls have been torn out and the building has been transformed into a modern upscale place that you might associate more with Las Vegas than Fresno.

Although the giant flower arrangements over the salad area are standard at every restaurant, Fresno is the first to get a curved ceiling full of little lights and unique hanging lights.

Fresno is Texas de Brazil’s 58th location nationwide, with seven others outside the U.S. The company is based in Texas, with its name designed to reflect a blend of Southern hospitality and Brazilian barbecue.

The restaurant is open only for dinner now, though it may add lunch service next year. It’s open 5 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays, 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. Fridays, 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. Saturdays and 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. Sundays.

For reservations: (559) 899-1900.

A flock of spicy chicken restaurants has descended upon the city of Fresno.

The trendy restaurants have been here for a while, actually, and just keep growing in number. Two more eateries specializing in Nashville hot chicken are gearing up to open in the coming days.

One is in central Fresno and the other in north Fresno — and both specialize in the fried, crunchy, spicy chicken served with pickles and coleslaw.

The trend has roots at a Nashville restaurant. The legend goes that the restaurant owner cheated on his lover, who cooked up the spiciest chicken she could as revenge.

Instead of getting the message, he asked for more. The recipe eventually made its way to his restaurant.

Free food will be available at the grand opening of Al’s Hot Chicken on Saturday, March 25.

It’s at the northeast corner of Blackstone and Sierra avenues in the same center as the DMV.

It’s a franchise with seven other locations, most in the Los Angeles area.

The first 100 people in line at the 11 a.m. grand opening will get a free chicken slider. The first customer in line will receive a $50 gift card and the second through 10th customers will get a $25 gift card.

Al’s Hot Chicken serves chicken sandwiches, chicken and waffles, buckets of legs and thighs, tenders, and loaded fries.

Its spicy options range from country (with no spice) to “L.A.’s hottest,” measuring 2.2 million Scoville heat units (a common measurement of how spicy something is). You need to sign a waiver to order that one.

Al’s serves halal chicken, prepared in a way that’s allowed under Islamic dietary laws. The restaurant is in the same spot as Halaly Tacos, which closed during the pandemic.

Details: Al’s Hot Chicken is at 6460 N Blackstone Ave., #105. Hours: 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily. 559-515-6933.

The next to open is Houston TX Hot Chicken, at Friant Road and Fresno Street, in the same shopping center as Trader Joe’s. It will hold its grand opening from noon to 3 p.m. Saturday, April 1.

It also sells chicken sandwiches, chicken tenders and waffles, loaded fries and salads. The chicken is organic and free of antibiotics and hormones.

Often called HHC, its spice levels range from no spice and honey butter to “Houston we have a problem!” That clocks in at 2 million Scoville heat units.

And, yes, you have to sign a waiver for that one also.

HHC will give away free original hot chicken sandwiches at the grand opening.

The restaurant has 11 locations in five states.

Details: HHC is at 8482 N Friant Rd #107. Hours: 10:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays, and from 10:30 a.m. to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.

The arrival of the Fresno restaurants follows the opening of Dave’s Hot Chicken in Visalia on Friday, March 24.

That restaurant has a drive-thru and is at 3301 S. Mooney Blvd. in the Sequoia Mall Center. It has tenders, sliders and kale slaw.

It’s open 10:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays, and from 10:30 a.m. to midnight Fridays and Saturdays.

The new restaurants join an existing roster of chicken restaurants and food trucks opening in recent years, including Angry Chickz, Cheeks’ Chicken & Burgers, CHICK N’ BROS, The Chicken Shack, Fluckers, FURY Hot Chicken, Pacific Fried Chicken Company, Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers and Spicy Birdz. The Red Chickz Nashville Hot Chicken is also planning a location at the Marketplace at El Paseo.

The Texas Tech football program has agreed to a three-year series with Fresno State, one that will bring the Bulldogs to Lubbock twice.

The Texas Tech football program has agreed to take on one of the more dangerous non-Power 5 programs in the nation, Fresno State, for a three-game series. Tech will be in Fresno to begin the series in 2029 before hosting the Bulldogs in 2030 and 2032.

Currently members of the Mountain West Conference, the Bulldogs have become one of the best programs from a Group of 5 conference. However, they are a program in transition.

After three very successful seasons under former Cal head coach Jeff Tedford, the Bulldogs are now under the guidance of Kalen DeBoer, who was the offensive coordinator at Indiana in 2019. Despite going just 4-8 last fall, Tedford guided Fresno to a 26-14 overall record, appearances in the MWC Championship Game in both 2017 and 2018, and the 2018 MWC Conference Title in 2018. That season concluded with an impressive 31-20 victory over Arizona State in the Las Vegas Bowl.

Like so many teams from Group of 5 conferences, Fresno is always happy to tangle with Power 5 teams. In upcoming seasons, they are set to play at Colorado and Texas A&M (2020), at Oregon and at UCLA (2021), Oregon State and at USC (2022), at Purdue and at Arizona State (2023), at Michigan and at UCLA (2024).

More from Wreck'Em Red

Over the years, the Bulldogs have been known for knocking off some of the game’s top programs. In 2001, they won at Colorado, against No. 10 Oregon State, and at No. 23 Wisconsin climbing as high as No. 8 in the polls behind future No. 1 overall NFL Draft pick QB David Carr. They also own a win against USC, which came in the 1992 Freedom Bowl.

In 2004, Fresno took down No. 13 Kansas State on the road 45-21 in the second game of the season before ending the year with a victory over No. 18 Virginia in their bowl game. That year also saw them begin the season with a win at Washington.

As for the Red Raiders, they have their non-conference schedule filled out through the 2027 season. In every one of those years, Tech will be facing a team from a Group of 5 conference.

This fall, Tech is going to open the year at UTEP. In week three of the 2021 season, the Red Raiders will be taking on Houston on the road.

In 2022, Tech hosts Wyoming before a return trip to Laramie the following season. 2024 brings North Texas to Lubbock and in 2025, Tech will face Colorado State on the road in Fort Collins. Colorado State will be in Lubbock in 2026 and in 2027, the Red Raiders will take on North Texas in Denton.

Ashlye Robinson, who lives in the Houston area, says she was checking on squawking bird when the snake 'jumped' in.

FRESNO, Texas — Ashlye Robinson recently sent a wild video into KHOU 11 that shows her encounter with a snake at her Fresno home.

Robinson explains she kept hearing a bird squawking at her front door, and when she opened it, a snake fell in.

She says she thought the bird was making noise because her puppy was harassing it, but that wasn't the case.

"...no, it's not. A snake jumped — literally jumped in my door when I opened it, and it scared me so bad that I jumped back and closed the door," she says.

The video shows the snake, later realized to be a harmless, non-venomous rat snake, curled up in a corner near the door, next to a broom.

"My brain was just like run away," Robinson said.

Robinson says she was able to get the snake back outdoors on her own using a broom, which the snake tried to attack. She then called in a cruelty-free animal expert to remove the animal from her property.

"She was frantic," Jordyn Martinez said laughingly.

They are joking now, but in the heat of the moment the snake sacred Robinson half to death.

"I refused to turn my back on it because I have little kids and I knew if I turned my back on him, I'd probably never find him again in this house," she said.

Recently, snakes have been spotted in the strangest of places.

"I got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom," Patty Tidwell said. "I opened my bathroom door and turned around and there was this big python on the back of my toilet."

From a West Texas bathroom to a bank off Highway 290 at Fairbanks where an AC repairman changing filters came face-to-face with a 6-foot rattlesnake, snakes have been active this summer.

"Had me pinned on one side and he was blocking me to get to my ladder," said Jesse with Kleen Air Services. "I called the bank and the bank called 911."

Back to Robinson and Martinez’s snake story.

"Maneuvered him to the front door," Robinson said. "Kept pushing him and kept pushing until he was out the front door. And he was like oh this is outside."

Martinez, a 17-year-old high school senior with a snake side hustle, relocated the rat snake.

"It was just snake show and tell," Martinez said.

"She was so gentle with him and totally calmed down the whole situation and she even had a little box for him," Robinson said.

"Where's the snake now?" asked KHOU 11’s Xavier Walton.

"State park," Martinez said.
