The One Trait That All of My Successful Rehab Patients Have in Common
I’ve been doing this for years and this one thing has never failed!
If you’ve read my work for a while, you’ll be aware that I frequently address pain in the context of physical therapy. Developing one’s relationship with pain is one of the most overlooked aspects of a successful recovery, regardless of what you’re going through.
Throughout my time working as a kinesiologist and trainer in this field, I’ve come to recognize that it’s the patients who understand and work to improve their biases and relationship with pain that heal the fastest and go the furthest.
To give you some background on where I stand on this topic, I want to share a few lines from my newly released book, How To Heal the Body Through Movement. Making the shift from fearing pain to becoming more curious about it has changed my life and I’m confident it will change yours too. Enjoy this brief snippet! ⤵️
Think about pain for a moment. What thoughts and emotions surface at the mention of the word? If it brings about fear and apprehension, you’re not alone. It’s very challenging to not have a negative perception of it, especially if you find yourself on the battlefield.
