If you want to truly fix the problem, you need to find the root cause! In this episode, Dr. Heather Demirci discusses the idea of hypomobilities in the body causing areas of hypermobilty which become the painful area. These hypomobilities can be caused by the joints but also the nerves and the viscera. Heather gives multiple examples of each of these areas in the hope that maybe one of them helps to answer why the root cause of your pain has not been discovered.
