The Resilient Body with Dr. Ar'neka
Ep. 140 Your Primary Doctor Can't Help Your Pain
Have you ever gone to your doctor for back or shoulder pain, only to be handed a prescription, offered a cortisone shot, or told to rest and ice—with no real assessment? You’re not alone.
In this episode, we break down why that approach doesn’t lead to lasting relief and how it often overlooks the root cause of your pain.
We talk about the limits of pills, imaging, and generic advice, and explain why a movement-based assessment is essential. You’ll learn what you actually need to feel better—like working with a provider who looks at how you move, asks about your lifestyle, and creates a personalized plan to help you get back to doing what you love.
It’s time to move past the “rest, ice, repeat” cycle.
Tune in to learn what works and why your care should go beyond the surface.
