I am your host, Marion McRae, physiotherapist & movement addict on a mission to see the existing model of treating back pain evolve. The current model is broken. It focusses almost entirely on the physical body, neglecting the fact that we are all both thinkers and feelers. When the thoughts in our head, and the emotions in our bodies are less than optimal, we fail to thrive.
In this episode, Meera shares her transformative journey of overcoming chronic back pain through mental and emotional strategies, highlighting the impact on physical health. She discusses her struggle since a fall at 12, leading to a life-changing experience that altered her perception of pain. She explores Ascension and surrender as paths to living harmoniously with pain, emphasizing its role in personal growth.Meera's Top tips -
1. Put less effort into movement: This reduces effort and can lead to more flexibility and relaxation.
2. Observe the body without agenda: By closing your eyes and purely observing your body sensations without judgment or a healing agenda, you can initiate healing. This practice can soothe pain and highlight areas of resistance.
3. Recognize the pain story: Noticing the thoughts surrounding your pain helps in becoming more aware of the dialogue about your pain. By becoming conscious of these thoughts, the suffering, which is an unconscious process, begins to diminish.Meera's Resources -

In this Podcast I interview Paul Buckey, the founder of an organisation that teaches a healing method called BioTouch. Paul shares how he discovered BioTouch through a very cool guy called "Norman" and its impact on back pain sufferers. The conversation delves into the simplicity and effectiveness of BioTouch, the importance of self-awareness in healing, and empowering individuals to take control of their own well-being. The script highlights the healing potential of human touch, the value of caregiver involvement in healing processes, and the significance of simplicity in healing modalities.Paul's Top tips -
1. Do the bio Touch Greeting and finger sweeping as outlined in the book below

Mike Sententia, the founder and lead healer at Healing Lab, brings a unique approach to chronic pain management through energy healing, as discussed in a podcast. With a background in energy healing since 1991 and authorship of notable works like "Arthritis: Natural Health and Prevention" and the forthcoming "Transforming Pain: The Emerging Science of Energy Healing for Pain Management," Mike aims to blend energy healing with mainstream medicine, advocating for insurance coverage. His Healing Lab distinguishes itself with a money-back guarantee, underscoring the evidence-based methods behind its practices. In the podcast, Mike delves into how energy healing impacts cellular functions, offers personalized adjustments for various tissues, and utilizes innovative methods like remote sessions with metal cards. He stresses the importance of evidence-based validation, ongoing client feedback, and individualized treatment plans in achieving mainstream recognition for energy healing.Mike's Top tips -
1. Look for practitioners who offer a money-back guarantee for their services.
2. Focus less on certifications and more on testimonials, especially video testimonials from real clients.
3. Consider trying energy medicine as it is generally safe and might offer relief without harmful side effects.Mike's Resources -

"The body absolutely knows how to heal itself... What a good physician does is they take that innate wisdom and then do everything you can to foster that, encourage it, help it along the path that it's doing anyway.""The survival mechanism of the spine and the core is to maintain that perfect posture... We don't get hurt when we're in posture. We get hurt when we're bent over and twisted."
Dr. Scott Bertrand, a retired chiropractor, shares his journey of developing the All Core 360, a revolutionary rehab unit, born out of his own back pain experiences. His frustration with ineffective rehab methods led him to create a device that challenges the core's survival mechanism through reflexive, subconscious training. By tilting and rotating, the All Core engages muscles dynamically, promoting balance and correcting imbalances, leading to improved posture and reduced pain. Customizable to individual needs, it's used both in rehab and athletic performance training, proving to be a game-changer in both arenas.

Individuals should be mindful of how they sit, stand, sleep, and move throughout the day. Seek Balance: Achieving balance in all aspects of life is crucial for managing back pain.

Doug Carey, a physiotherapist with a 30-year career and fellow podcaster - chats with me about SLEEPING AND BACK PAIN: how to feel better while sleeping and how to sleep well. Obviously, there is no typical answer. There isn't a single mattress that will suit every spine, nor is there one pillow that will work for everybody. So, if you are seeking an answer, please listen to this podcast to explore some "change" ideas.

My guest for this episode is another Margaret river Local - Steve Coonan. Steve and I met randomly at the dog park a few months back and within 5 minutes I knew he had a great back pain experience to share. Several things appealed to me about Steve's story ; A diagnosis of Thoracic Disc ( is unusual) , his nightmare with the Workers compensation system is worth a discussion, and his practical ability to pull himself out of the pain cycle into a functioning, happy guy is not an easy thing to do. Steve was only too happy to pass on his wisdom.
And this podcast is the place to do it.
Who want's to listen to physio's and expert movers all day ? it's the real people having the real success that have such wisdom to pass on. I am truly grateful for all the guests that generously supply their time for this mission.

My guest for this episode is New Zealand Physiotherapist, Bart de Vries. One day Bart was researching the best ways to get people moving and found himself suffering back pain and headaches from long hours sitting at a desk. The irony was real.As a former professional hockey goalie, Bart discovered that sitting at his desk could be more hazardous than having a hockey ball rocketing his way at 200km/hr.
The typical desk set-up restricts our ability to move - if you don’t use it, you lose it. Bart needed to find a way to get moving again whilst working. Bart couldn’t find a desk that allowed enough movement so he set off to create one that did. In collaboration with engineers and designers, "Limber Desks" are world leading, with their benefits being researched by the University of California at Berkeley, USA.

My guest for this episode is Personal Friend & "Fascial Mentor" Muriel Morwitzer aka Mu Mu. I first met Mu Mu as a business partner. I found her very "Swiss German" - by her own admission - she was tough, detailed, ridiculously professional ( by Australian Standards ) and the MOST passionate practitioner I had met. Her knowledge of Fascia and Movement was totally superior to my own and at times I felt threatened by that, but as I grew to observe Mu Mu in operation I began to feel comforted by her knowledge. Here was someone I could learn from, and Model, and share insights with.
Surprise Surprise, Mu Mu's calling to teach movement has a solid foundation in her own back pain story, which was triggered by an accident in her youth.

My guest for this episode is my local CrossFit Coach - Ben Robinson, who along with his beautiful wife, Nicole - Own and operate Margaret River CrossFit.
We discuss the variety amongst CrossFit centres globally and the need to ensure your own safety by doing your research, booking some 1 on 1 intro sessions before moving into group classes, and ensuring your coach's are invested in correcting your form and knowing your name! The E colours personality profiling tool is a great tool CrossFit coaches use to identify "at risk" movement personalities. I was surprised to hear that CrossFit is female dominated (approx 60-40) and the average demographic is a 37 year old female. De-stigmatising CrossFit from the world of online videos is important. The Format of each session consists of Mobility, following by Strength, followed by the "Workout of the Day" or WOD. The strength element consists of Power lifting (slower strength) and Olympic Lifting ( speed + strength). The movements help you identify where you are limited in your body and the usual suspects become apparent ; ankle mobility, hip mobility, thoracic and shoulder mobility. CrossFit coaches use a variety of cue's to help client's learn, including Verbal, Visual and Tactile, and performance is tracked through an app - which provides motivation.

To Watch this podcast on Youtube go HereThis podcast aims to empower listeners with HOPE that healing is possible when you know how. We discuss strategic tools addressing mindset, movement & emotional health.
I am your host, Marion McRae, a physiotherapist & movement addict on a mission to see the existing model of treating back pain evolve. The current model is broken. It focusses almost entirely on the physical body, neglecting the fact that we are all both thinkers and feelers. When the thoughts in our head, and the emotions in our bodies are less than optimal, we fail to thrive.
My guest for this episode is a fellow "AIMER" -as we call ourselves - devotees of Gary Ward's Anatomy in Motion Model of Movement Re-training (see Podcast Episode 10) Mr Rocky Snyder from Santa Cruz is a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist, a nationally recognised expert in human movement with nearly 30 years of professional experience and knowledge. Rocky has trained thousands of clients ranging from grandparents to professional athletes and Olympic champions. Rocky is also an author and podcast in his own right.
We discuss Rocky's personal perspective on back pain, which I share whole heartedly - focus on finding the "hidden culprit" rather than focussing on the symptoms. The Hidden Culprit is the part of the body not participating, and therefore asking other body parts to over-compensate for its lack of action.
Some Key Quotes -
" I don't treat pain, I explore movement"
" Find a new way for your body parts to communicate and negotiate"
" Become detectives and hunt down the original cause"
" 57 muscles cross the pelvis" - ? WTF ? Really - I didn't know that.
" Bruce Lee - Can we MOVE like water ? and still be dynamically stable "
" Cookie Cutter - one size fits all method of rehab does not work "
" Exercise = Repetitive Stress Syndrome " VS Movement
" A chain is as strong as it's weakest link"
" 27 hand variations for a push up "
" The back is the victim of the crime, whilst the hidden culprit's lay low"Rocky’s tools:
Movement, Strength and Conditioning Mindset - do not limit your own ability to heal Address the individual rather than theRocky's Top tips -

I am your host, Marion McRae, a physiotherapist & movement addict on a mission to see the existing model of treating back pain evolve. The current model is broken. It focusses almost entirely on the physical body, neglecting the fact that we are all both thinkers and feelers. When the thoughts in our head, and the the emotions in our bodies are less than optimal, we fail to thrive.
Our Guest for this episode is a man who I consider to be the "Leonardo da Vinci of Quality Movement" and his "Flow Motion Model" is the equivalent of da Vinci's Sistine Chapel. Gary observed loading pressures in feet whilst fitting ski boots for avid skiers on the slopes. His powers of observation and curiosity were so intense that he figured out some pretty "game changing" concepts for how we move through space. Since discovering his work, my personal approach to rehabilitation has completely changed and the purity of his model of motion is pure perfection in my eyes. Perhaps I am biased, but when you spend 5 days studying a foot and still walk away totally enthused by this one part of our anatomy, then clearly the teaching and the method are revolutionary.
We discuss Gary's own injury history, how he created his model of motion and how it relates to back pain. Including ; the relevance of foot pressures, why core work is not always useful, the futility of some standard rehabilitation protocols. We discuss the role of movement efficiency for performance, but also for injury avoidance.
Some Key Quotes -
"If we are not aware of the things we can't do, we are only aware of the things we can do" = Consider Anatomy in Motion a Pattern Interruption for the Brain
" You only have two legs" - why not load each one evenly ?
"More access to Mobility creates Stability"Gary’s tools:
Movement - Anatomy in Motion - creating new opportunities for skeletal re-organisation, learning new ways of moving gently, quietly and with curiosity to open and close joint spaces evenly throughout the spine.Gary’s Top 3 tips -

On a personal level, I have returned to intense clinical practice, and finding time to record these podcasts has been a non-event. So, rather than lose momentum, I have re-purposed a Facebook Live event I recorded during Covid. I am effectively interviewing myself!
Marion’s Top 3 tips -
1. Mental Attitude - Do you believe you can Heal ? if not - don't proceed until you remind yourself of your bodies amazing ability to heal.
2. Emotions Matter. How you feel affects your biochemistry which affects your ability to Heal.
3. Movement of your Pelvis in 8 directions is the key to creating a happy base for your spine.If you resonated with any of today's conversations and think perhaps you may like to Build your own Bulletproof Back, or assist a loved one on their journey - Please check out my website.
