In this episode of the podcast, we look at the subtleties of a chronic injury and how these can still hinder your recovery even if you're doing everything right.
When you've been dealing with the same issue for a long time there will always be an element of adaptive/learned behaviour associated with it. If you don't address this in your rehab journey, you'll find the issue will continue to reoccur.

Do you have the correct diagnosis for your recurring back pain? If you've been giving the diagnosis before that it is posture related, your glutes/core is weak, your muscles are overactive or your disks are the problem, you've most likely been misled.
Chronic back pain is rarely a biomechanical issue. Instead it's at a neurological level. We speak on the cycles people go through looking for a diagnosis and how this creates a bigger problem.

When you are trying to overcome a chronic back injury or recurring pain, sometimes this is a necessary evil. But it doesn't have to be all bad.
