LOVE HEALS follows the journey of Dana, a chronic pain sufferer in search of healing after two failed spine surgeries. She travels across the country to learn more about an ancient mind-body energy principle that has helped so many heal and to understand why it works. With a combination of experts, energy healers, master trainers, and everyday people struggling with chronic pain, the film balances the research of acclaimed scientists like Dr. Bruce Lipton with the wisdom of globally renowned energy healers like Ilchi Lee.

Dr. David Hanscom
Dr. Hanscom is an orthopedic complex spinal deformity surgeon who was based in Seattle, WA for over 32 years. He quit his surgical practice in 2019 to focus on teaching people how to break loose from the grip of chronic mental and physical pain – with and without surgery. His insights arose out of escaping from his own 15-year ordeal of suffering with severe chronic pain. As he began to share his approaches with his patients, a predictable sequence of learning evolved. It is reflected in his most recent effort, The DOC (Direct your Own Care) Journey. It is the self-directed action plan of his book, Back in Control: A Surgeon’s Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain.
Dr. Les Aria
Les Aria, Ph.D., a pain psychologist who has been practicing for the past 18 years with Kaiser Permanente Medical Group in Northern California, where he helped redesign the chronic pain workshop curriculum to incorporate modern pain science, mindfulness and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT). Les is one of the co-founders of Menda Health, a pain relief program, and serves as the Chief Science Officer. He is also a board member for Curable, an app designed to help people with chronic pain by addressing the psychology of pain. Les specializes in treating psychophysiological disorders/persistent pain and medically unexplained problems. His passion for mind-body interventions promotes a unique style to help patients relate differently to their suffering, and thereby shift them into pain recovery and wellness.
