Ep200: Regenerate Your Body with Oliver Ghalambor

Books help bridge the gap between curiosity and clarity. In this episode of The Book More Show, I’m joined by Dr. Ghalambor of Nortex Spine and Joint Institute, who’s spent nearly two decades helping patients manage spine and joint issues without surgery. We spoke about his new book Regenerate Your Body and Heal, and how it’s designed to educate patients—and remind fellow professionals—about the powerful middle ground between massage and the operating table. Dr. Ghalambor shared how he discovered interventional spine and joint care during a residency rotation, and how that exposure set the foundation for his career. He explained the multidisciplinary approach his clinic uses today and emphasized how modern pain management combines treatments like PRP, shockwave, laser therapy, and nutrition to actually heal underlying issues—not just reduce symptoms. We talked about the evolution of regenerative medicine and how patient awareness has grown. His book walks through symptom-based paths and demonstrates how “stacking” evidence-based treatments creates long-term recovery without surgery. He also described the challenge of moving from academic rigor to accessible communication that empowers people to ask better questions.
