Episode 386 - Chronic Pain with Eileen Kopsaftis

Pain is often treated as a problem that lives exactly where it hurts. In practice, when we are dealing with chronic pain, the place we feel it is not always the place where the real issue actually begins in the body.

When we start looking at how the body actually works as a connected system, the picture changes. Movement, alignment, and even long standing stress patterns can all influence how pain develops and why it returns even after an injury or trauma looked like it had healed.
