Steeve centers on practical, science-focused PEMF education with an emphasis on simplifying the technical side, and helping people make more informed decisions. Steeve has "no fluff" focus highlighting pain relief, better sleep, faster recovery, and lower stress. Together, Dr. Perry and Steeve explore where PEMF may fit into a healing framework, including recovery, stress regulation, sleep support, and performance. They also get into the bigger questions: how to think critically about wellness technology, how marketing can distort expectations, and why understanding the principles behind a device matters just as much as the claims made about it. This is a conversation for clinicians, biohackers, health seekers, and anyone curious about how energy-based tools may support the body when used with clarity and discernment. Steeve Bradet is the founder of PEMF with Steeve, an Alberta, Canada-based education and product platform focused on pulsed electromagnetic field therapy. He creates videos and resources designed to make PEMF easier to understand, with content ranging from mat comparisons and controller education to DIY PEMF builds.

SCP Podcast Episode 275: Cure Your Fatigue with Morley Robbins
Dr. Perry and Luisa sit down with Morley Robbins—creator of the Root Cause Protocol and author of Cure Your Fatigue—for a practical and ellightening conversation on why so many people feel depleted, inflamed, and stuck in chronic symptoms. This episode connects the dots between energy production, stress physiology, and the "hidden" drivers that keep pain patterns and chronic disease states switched on. Learn what to change first, and how to stop spinning your wheels with random supplements and overloaded advice. You'll walk away with a map for recovery—especially if you deal with chronic pain, fatigue, brain fog, autoimmunity patterns, or slow healing. Key takeaways from Cure Your Fatigue that we unpack on the show include: (1) why mineral balance is foundational to nervous system stability and tissue repair (2) how iron dysregulation can drive oxidative stress and inflammation (3) the central role of copper and ceruloplasmin in safe iron handling and cellular energy (4) why magnesium is a "stress mineral" that influences pain sensitivity, sleep, and autonomic tone (5) how supporting mitochondrial energy production can change the entire symptom picture. If you're tired of chasing symptoms, this interview gives you a grounded, systems-based lens—and actionable steps—to improve resilience, reduce inflammatory load, and create better conditions for healing.

SCP Podcast Episode 271: Mark England - Rewrite Your Story, Rewrite Your Life.
Get ready to change your story. Life changing podcast you are about to drop in on. Mark England is the head coach and co-founder of Enlifted Coaching — a mindset and language-based coaching system built around the idea that "mindset is the story you tell yourself." After a background in athletics and teaching, and personal experience with injury and transformation, Mark developed what he calls the "Enlifted Method," a practical, repeatable toolkit using language, breath, and narrative to help people overcome limiting beliefs, self-sabotage, and victim-mentality stories. His work isn't just about "positive thinking" — it's about noticing how the words we say (both out loud and inside our heads), how we breathe, and how we frame experience shape our identity, drive decisions, and determine whether we stay stuck or move forward. Some Highlights: Mindset = internal story. The story you tell yourself about yourself. Rewriting that story (through words + breath) you literally change your life trajectory. Language shapes reality. The method emphasizes that simple "word changes" — shifting from conflict language to empowered, clear language by dismantling limiting beliefs, reduce anxiety, and build confidence. Breath as an anchor & reset tool. Conscious breathing underlies the work: slowing speech, calming the nervous system, and using breath to shift emotions so you can think and act from clarity rather than panic or overwhelm.

SCP Podcast Mini Series, Episode 38: If You Touch The Face, You Touch The
In this mini podcast episode Dr. Perry talks about how facial massages calm the nervous system and help pain When you massage the face, you're not just working on skin — you're speaking directly to the trigeminal nerve, the largest sensory nerve in the entire head. Gentle pressure on the forehead, cheeks, and jaw sends calming signals into the brainstem, lowering threat, softening sympathetic overdrive, and creating a shift toward safety. The trigeminal system is deeply wired into pain modulation and stress processing, so when you relax the face, you literally turn down the volume on the stress response. It's one of the fastest ways to reset the nervous system: change what the face feels, and you change what the brain perceives. Facial massage stimulates A-beta mechanoreceptors, which quiet pain signals. The trigeminal nerve feeds into autonomic centers calming the fight-or-flight loop. Releasing tension around the jaw and eyes decreases sympathetic load almost instantly. Touching the face shifts emotional tonethe. The limbic system responds to facial relaxation. Relax the face to down regulate inflammation.

SCP Podcast Mini Series, Episode 37: The Ear-A Whole Body Nervous System Reset
In this episode Dr. Perry talks about the power of ear massages and how they calm the body. One of the fastest ways to calm your body is through the ear. The ear is loaded with nerves that talk directly to your autonomic nervous system—especially the vagus nerve, the trigeminal nerve, and small branches of the facial nerve. When you gently massage or rub the ear, you're not just working skin...you're sending a powerful signal to the brain that says 'you're safe.' This boosts parasympathetic tone, eases muscle tension, improves blood and lymph flow, and drops pain levels. It's a simple, accessible reset that helps shift you out of fight-or-flight and back into healing, recovery, and regeneration mode. Do it daily for 30-days and feel the difference. WEBSITE YOUTUBE
