Ongoing and severe pain affects about 80% of people, and it’s important to remember that you are not alone in this journey.
Pain is an integral part of the human experience, but there are ways to help you manage it.
Understanding pain can fundamentally shift how we experience and perceive it.
To assist you in better managing your pain, I’d like to guide you through five steps:
- Pain Education: Providing you with the latest scientific knowledge on pain in a practical, understandable way.
- Movement and Exercise: Gradual movement and targeted exercises will help you regain confidence in movement and prevent further body deconditioning.
- Brain Training: This includes techniques like mindfulness, meditation, graded motor imagery, journaling, breathwork and kinesiology, which can help unravel unhelpful thoughts and uneasy feelings associated with pain.
- Explain Pain: Understanding fear cycles and recurrent flare-ups, and why pain may persist.
- Breaking Unhelpful Habits and Establishing Healthy Ones: This involves improvements in sleep, exercise, nutrition, and stress management.
To all those experiencing ongoing pain:
I want you to know that I believe you, I see you, I hear you, and I understand your struggle.
If you’re eager to learn not only about your pain but also about yourself, I’m eager to hear your story.
