If you are living with persistent pain, one key factor of your recovery is moving your body. But where to start?

This isn't the same as building a fitness program. There are a few tips here to help you along the way. Start slow and build gradually, but most important, listen to your body.

When working with persistent pain and movement, I want you to connect your breath to the movement in a way that helps you build the confidence to continue moving and working without falling into a flare up.

Part of the Pain Reprocessing Therapy management is somatic tracking. This is where you take a moment, in this case 20 minutes, to be aware of the sensations in your body. Not analyze them, not make them go away, just be aware of them.

Combine this practice with the breathwork from Critical Alignment Therapy and now we are building a path back to wellness!

So find a place to rest, seated or laying down, for the next 20 min then let me know in comments how it felt!

The good and the bad. Why?

Inflammation can help us heal injuries, but it can also affect our pain levels greatly. So let's look at inflammation and learn how to balance out the pro/anti inflammation in our lives.You don't need to quit and make big changes all at once, but taking small steps, making little changes, will start to help!

We’ve all been there at some point. The Dr. appt that feels rushed, the physio that has 4 patients going at once, or even just being handed a sheet of exercises to do.

Patient centred care builds a relationship, allows the person who is living with pain to be heard and brought in on their treatment.

Let’s look at what Patient Centred Care is and how we can learn a little more about building this functional and more effective relationship with our medical support team.
