Rewiring Back Pain: A Brain-Based Approach with Ben O’Loghlin

In this transformative episode of The Mindful Journey, host Sana sits down with Ben O’Loghlin—entrepreneur, engineer, musician, and back pain recovery expert—who shares how he conquered chronic pain not through surgery or medication, but by retraining his brain. Rooted in the evidence-backed Alexander Technique, Ben’s method addresses the root cause of non-specific back pain: chronic muscle tension driven by the brain. He shares his personal healing journey from debilitating daily pain to full recovery, providing insights that challenge conventional medicine and spark hope for those still suffering.
