🤔 "…as we’ve learned more about the science of pain, we’ve discovered that pain and tissue damage don’t always go hand in hand, even when the body’s threat signalling mechanisms are fully functioning."

The mysterious science of pain In 1995, the British Medical Journal published a report about a builder who accidentally jumped onto a nail, which pierced straight through his steel-toed boot. He was in such agonizing pain that any movement was unbearable. But when the doctors took off his boot, they discovered that the nail had n...

Had a nice time presenting part 2 of our “Pain and Aging” series at one of the local retirement homes in Halifax today 😊
In this seminar, we discussed the roles that mobility 🚶🏽and manual therapy 👐🏼 play in managing pain.

No, you do not have bad posture❗️

Fear-based advertising makes us believe that there are “bad” and “good” postures 😯 The idea that there are “bad” postures insinuates that our bodies are fragile and unable to adapt. This couldn’t be further from the truth 💪🏼 Research continues to find a poor relationship between posture and back/neck pain.

The issue lies with a lack of MOVEMENT and variety of movement 👩🏽‍💻 When we adopt ANY posture (e.g. “textbook perfect” or hunched-back) for an extended period of time, that’s when things can become problematic. Movement helps our musculoskeletal, nervous, vascular, and lymphatic systems to function. 😀

As the famous saying goes, “your best posture is your next posture”, so keep on moving! 🤸🏿‍♂️🏃🏼‍♀️🚶🏽
