I always tell patients, if you've done something and you're sore for two days, you have overdone it. But the people who are just afraid to move have a huge fear-based component to their pain. And a lot of it is just managing their fear versus actually getting them to move because once the fear gets managed they will get better.
Ever thought your persistent neck pain might be linked to an old ankle injury? In this eye-opening episode of 'The Mindful Injury Recovery Talks with Dr. Maya Novak', physiotherapist and author Erica Meloe shares her wisdom on the surprising sources of physical pain. Erica, known for her book 'Why Do I Hurt?', breaks down how injuries in one part of the body can cause pain in completely different areas.
She explains why traditional methods often fall short and highlights the importance of a holistic approach to truly heal. You'll hear real-life stories of patients who found relief by addressing the root causes rather than just the symptoms. Erica dives into the emotional connections to physical pain, showing how our feelings can impact our healing journey. She also discusses practical strategies like brain training, visualization, and self-management techniques that can make a huge difference in recovery.
If you're struggling with chronic pain or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a blend of empathy, hope, and actionable advice. Tune in for a fresh perspective on pain and discover new ways to reclaim your health.
