  • Episode 34: Caught In The Gut: Why Your Back Pain Might Be An Inside Job with Anna Hartman

    Have You Ever Wondered if Your Chronic Pain Might Have Deeper, Hidden Roots in Your Inner Organs? (Previously episode 5 of season 2) 

    In this eye-opening episode of TMI Talk, Dr. Mary Grimberg welcomes Anna Hartman, an athletic trainer who provides private consulting to professional athletes for injury prevention, rehabilitation, and performance optimization. She also teaches physical therapists and athletic trainers how to get better outcomes by combining an osteopathic approach with a traditional orthopedic approach for assessment and treatment (manual and exercise-based) for injuries, pain, and performance. Her approach considers the whole person- including the viscera and the nervous system, not just the musculoskeletal system.

    They dive deep into the often-overlooked realm of visceral referral and its critical impact on musculoskeletal health. If you've been struggling with persistent low back or pelvic pain and traditional treatments haven't worked, this episode might just be the revelation you've been searching for.

    Key Highlights:

    1. Visceral Referral: Anna explains how internal organs, or viscera, can cause pain in muscles and joints, particularly focusing on the small intestines, kidneys, and pelvic organs.
    2. Industry Standards: A candid discussion on why the current standards in orthopedic physical therapy might not be enough and the importance of considering the whole person in treatment.
    3. Nervous System's Role: How your nervous system can sabotage or support your healing process, especially if you've experienced trauma.
    4. Pelvic Health: Insights into the interconnectedness of the uterus, ovaries, rectum, and even the colon, in influencing chronic pain.
    5. Practical Advice: Tips on how to start exploring visceral mobility and improving overall body awareness from home.

    Discover how a holistic approach considering both the mind and body can bring you closer to relief and a better quality of life. Listen to the full episode and take the first step towards understanding the bigger picture of your pain.
