In this episode of Three Questions, I take a brain-based look at joint replacement and challenge some of the assumptions we make about pain, recovery, and movement. Surgery can be life-changing, but it doesn’t automatically reset the brain’s maps, compensation strategies, or sensory systems.

In This Episode You'll Hear:

• How proprioception and brain mapping influence recovery outcomes
• What research shows about brain changes before and after joint replacement
• What a more complete approach to pre-op and post-op rehab could look like

Whether you’re preparing for surgery, recovering from one, or helping others navigate the process, this episode will help you think beyond the joint and toward the brain-body system that has been adapting all along.
