Why You Should Not Ignore Numbness (Hands, Feet and Face) | Ep. 357

Numbness is not just your limb falling asleep; it is a warning sign from your nervous system that communication has been cut off. In Episode 357 of The Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie Wyss break down one of the most common yet ignored symptoms in healthcare: Numbness. Whether it is tingling in your hands at night, facial paralysis scares, or the burning sensation of sciatica, these are red flags of nerve compression. We discuss why masking these symptoms with cortisone shots or anti-inflammatories often leads to further injury and why athletes would rather feel pain than nothing at all. Dr. Skip explains the anatomy of the neck and lower back to show exactly where the "kink in the hose" occurs and why treating the wrist for hand numbness often misses the root cause in the spine. In This Episode You Will Learn: Facial Numbness: How to distinguish between a stroke, Bell's Palsy, and an upper cervical subluxation. The Cortisone Trap: Why injections only reduce inflammation temporarily but do not fix the mechanical pressure on the nerve. Hand Numbness: Why tingling hands at night is often a neck alignment issue (C4-T1), not just a mattress problem. Sciatica and Foot Drop: The specific signs of disc herniation and when you need to seek immediate medical attention. Raynauds Phenomenon: Why cold, white fingers are actually a nervous system regulation issue. Pain vs. Numbness: Why pain is a helpful communicator and numbness is dangerous for injury prevention.

Do you believe it takes 21 days to break a habit? Neurologically, that is a myth. In Episode 356 of The Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie Wyss explain why you cannot simply "think" your way out of chronic stress, anxiety, or poor posture. While most people try to use mental willpower to change their lives, true habits are neurological, not just mental. If your nervous system is stuck in a survival pattern (fight or flight), no amount of positive thinking will override that biological programming. We dive deep into how these patterns start—often as early as birth or in the womb—and discuss the impact of retained primitive reflexes like the Moro Reflex. Dr. Skip explains why "survival mode" prevents brain growth and how physical intervention (chiropractic care) is often the missing link to resetting the body's communication system. In This Episode, You Will Learn: The 21-Day Myth: Why neurological reprogramming takes years, not weeks. Mental vs. Neurological: Why willpower fails when your body is physically stuck in survival mode. Visual Diagnostics: How to spot nerve interference in your kids (asymmetry, acne spots, posture). The Moro Reflex: Why an infant startle reflex can cause anxiety in adults if not integrated. The Marathon Trap: Why extreme endurance exercise might be keeping you in a stress state.

Why Millionaires Are Jealous of YOU: The Truth About Time vs. Money | Ep. 355 Do you feel guilty when you aren't "busy"? You might be chasing a version of success that even millionaires regret. In Episode 355 of the Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie Wies return from an unplanned break to discuss a powerful realization: Time is the only currency you can't earn back. After a trip to Nevada and a conversation with a retired mentor, Dr. Skip reveals a shocking truth—wealthy influencers with millions of dollars are actually jealous of you. Why? Because while they have money, they often lack control over their own calendars. We dive deep into the addiction to "busyness," why working a second job for an extra $50 might be costing you your family, and how to reclaim your freedom. In This Episode, You Will Learn: The "Busyness" Trap: Why we feel guilty when we rest and how to break the addiction to constant productivity. The Millionaire Paradox: Why the wealthy are often chasing "time freedom" while the middle class chases money. Health & Immunity: Why getting sick is actually a necessary "workout" for your nervous system. Fix Your Sundays: How to stop the "Sunday Scaries" and use the weekend to actually recharge.

The "No Resolution" New Year: Why Waiting for January 1st is a Trap | Ep. 354 Why do we wait for a specific date on the calendar to change our lives? In Episode 354 of the Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie Wies challenge the traditional concept of New Year's Resolutions. With statistics showing most resolutions fail within three weeks, we discuss a better approach: The "No Resolution" New Year. We dive deep into the psychology of procrastination and why waiting for January 1st is actually a lack of confidence. Instead of a "clean slate" once a year, we talk about changing your attitude in seconds and controlling the "controllables" (what you eat, what you think, and who you hang out with). This episode focuses heavily on the "Rule of 5"—the idea that you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with. If your circle is full of "Crabs in a Bucket" (people who pull you down when you try to climb out), 2026 will look exactly like 2025. It's time to audit your circle, ignore the haters who only show up when you succeed, and make the decision to change today. In This Episode, You Will Learn: The 3-Week Trap: Why 90% of New Year's resolutions are dead by January 21st. Control Your Controllables: You can't control the President or the weather, but you can control your sugar intake and your words. The Rule of 5 Audit: How your 5 closest friends determine your income, health, and attitude. Crabs in a Bucket: Why you have 50 cheerleaders when you are failing, but haters when you succeed. Indecision is a Decision: Why doing nothing is actually letting the world choose your life for you. Dr. Julie's Advice: Why "Done is better than Perfect" and taking the leap of faith.

Connection Without the Cost: Saving Your Marriage (and Wallet) from Holiday Stress | Ep. 353 Does the holiday season feel like you're looking at a fancy restaurant menu where everything has "$$$$" next to it? You aren't alone. In Episode 353 of the Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie Wies tackle the "Financial Hangover" that ruins January for so many couples. We discuss why consumerism often masquerades as connection and how mismatched expectations (and credit card bills) create deep resentment that explodes once the decorations come down. We dive deep into Love Languages—what happens when one spouse loves giving gifts but the other hates clutter? We also share the "Wrap It Yourself" hack that saves husbands from panic-buying blenders, and why saying "Maybe" is the most dangerous thing you can do in a relationship. On a serious note, we discuss why divorce filings spike in January. It isn't just about the money; it's about the lack of genuine, unplugged time. Tune in for practical, low-cost ways to date your spouse again—from bringing back the "Coupon Book" to conducting "Hallmark Movie Research" on the couch. In This Episode, You Will Learn: The "$$$$" Holiday Trap: How to stop the cycle of spending money you don't have to impress people who don't care. Love Language Clashes: Navigating the friction between a partner who loves "Gifting" and one who prefers "Acts of Service." The "Maybe" Red Flag: Why clear communication ("Yes, I want this" or "No, let's save money") saves marriages. The Divorce Spike: Why lack of face-to-face time is the root cause of recent separations in our circle. Dr. Skip's Best Gift: The story of the signed Bo Jackson bat and thoughtful gifting.

My Parents Died Young: A Wake-Up Call for Men's Longevity & Legacy | Prime Podcast Ep. 349 Title: My Parents Died Young: A Wake-Up Call for Men's Longevity & Legacy | Prime Podcast Ep. 349 Episode Summary: In this deeply personal finale to Men's Health Month, Dr. Skip Wies reflects on the recent loss of both his parents before they reached age 70. This stark reminder of mortality serves as the backdrop for a crucial conversation about longevity. This episode isn't just about adding years to your life; it's about adding life to your years for the sake of your spouse, children, and future grandchildren. Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie debunk the paralyzing myth that health is entirely hereditary using the powerful "recipe analogy" for genetics versus lifestyle. They discuss the massive mindset shift required for men who notoriously wait until their bodies are "broken" to seek help, introducing the concept of viewing your body as "rented" property you must maintain for your loved ones. Learn why reliance on "quick fixes" like peptide therapies is no substitute for the foundational work of nervous system regulation, correcting stress-induced posture, and the discipline needed to create a lasting healthy legacy.  In This Episode: * The emotional wake-up call of facing mortality and the desire to see future family milestones. * Epigenetics explained: Why genetics are just ingredients, and your lifestyle is the recipe. * The "Rented Body" mindset shift: Taking care of yourself as a duty to the people you love. * Why men often wait for catastrophic health failures before acting (the car maintenance analogy). * The critical role of nervous system health and posture in long-term vitality. * The danger of using "quick fixes" (pills, injections) to avoid necessary discipline. * How to build a healthy legacy and instill foundational habits in your children.

The REAL Cause of Low Desire & ED (It's Not Just "Low T") | Prime Podcast Ep. 348 This is the "hard conversation" about men's sexual health that most people are afraid to have. In this powerful episode of the Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie Wies argue that the mainstream focus on "Low T" and "Erectile Dysfunction (ED)" medication is just a band-aid for a much deeper, more alarming epidemic: a crisis of low arousal and desire. This problem is no longer just for older men; it's affecting men in their 20s and 30s, directly linked to plummeting men's infertility rates and ruining relationships. Dr. Skip pinpoints overstimulation and desensitization from pornography as the primary cause, creating a "disease in the mind" that real-world intimacy can't compete with. Learn the steps to break this cycle, re-sensitize your brain, and reclaim genuine intimacy. Key Takeaways / In This Episode: * (04:06) Why "Low T" pills and ED medication don't fix the core problem of low arousal. * (04:46) The #1 cause of psychological desensitization in men. * (07:18) How overstimulation (starting with video games and social media) creates unrealistic expectations and destroys intimacy. * (09:57) The downward spiral of desensitization and its devastating impact on marriage. * (12:38) The simple, direct solution: How to "quit" artificial stimulation and re-sensitize your brain to your partner. * (22:05) The surprising link between long-term stimulant (ADHD) medication and men's infertility. * (24:00) It's okay to talk about this: How to have the "hard conversation" and get help.
