In this episode, we chat about the principles of rehabilitation, focusing on pain management, understanding diagnoses, and the importance of movement and recovery.


Takeaways

  • Rehabilitation is not just about exercises; it's about understanding and managing symptoms.
  • You are not defined by your diagnosis; it is just a part of your story.
  • Imaging results do not always correlate with pain levels or functional ability.
  • Pain is influenced by various factors, including stress and beliefs about movement.
  • Gradual exposure to painful activities can help in recovery.
  • Load management is crucial in rehabilitation; modify activities to find an entry point.
  • Resting too much can lead to deconditioning; movement is essential.
  • Sleep and recovery are vital for healing; prioritize them in your routine.
  • Track your progress objectively to recognize improvements over time.
  • Seek professional help for personalized rehabilitation guidance.
