Dr. Novotny shares insights from her extensive background in orthopedics, sports, geriatrics, and chronic pain, explaining her unique method that combines pain awareness, breathing, and relief (P.A.B.R.). She also discusses the significant role the nervous system plays in overall health and how proper mechanics of breathing and body posture can alleviate stress and chronic pain. In addition to her medical achievements, Dr. Novotny is an accomplished marathon runner, Ironman triathlete, and wildlife photographer, with her photos being recognized by National Geographic.
