Welcome to Practicing Human, where Emma Easterbrook explores 360 health: how everything we consume, from emotions to treatments, shapes our wellness.   In Episode 4, Emma welcomes Jo Macario, a senior clinical nurse specialist at Brighton Hospital and prescriber for Emma’s clinic. With 25 years of friendship, Jo brings expertise in acute pain management, from optimizing epidurals to morphine pumps for trauma and surgical patients. She shares insights on Botox (a wrinkle-relaxing prescription) versus filler (a medical device for enhancement), emphasising safe, natural aesthetics over “frozen faces.” Jo’s pandemic experiences in intensive care and her commitment to the NHS highlight her dedication, despite its challenges. With plenty of giggles, her stories—from raising three kids to her dog Rocco’s high-fives—add warmth.   Explore holistic health with Emma at https://star-treatment.com/.
