This 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,  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 Plumber &  Movement Coach called Neil Maddison, who teaches Foundation Training -  We discuss the origins on Foundation training and what it is all about and how it helps those with back pain find strength and mobility.

Favourite Quotes - 

  • Pain is inevitable, Suffering is Optional 
  • Pain is the body's messenger - something has to change 
  • Pain is protection - without it, we would possibly do more damage 
  • Time under Tension develops the musculature that can help unload the joints
  • Many roads to the same destination 
  • Rest like an animal 
  • The anticipation of pain can be half the energy drain 
  • The rust analogy on the car
