Why Your Pain Isn't Where You Think: 3-Plane Fixes for Aging Strong
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Tired of chronic pain ruling your life after 50? Discover how to eliminate pain naturally, move freely, and age without decline in this eye-opening conversation on The Inspired Yogi Podcast! Yogi welcomes Eileen Kopsaftis, licensed physical therapist with 30+ years of experience, author of Pain Culprits and Aging Culprits, and founder of Have Lifelong Wellbeing. Eileen reveals why "where the pain is, is often NOT where the problem is"—from shoulder issues stemming from ankles/hips/trunk imbalances to why isolated gym exercises can do more harm than good.Key takeaways:Master 3-plane motion (forward/back, side-to-side, rotation) to retrain authentic, pain-free movement—no more compensating patterns! Debunk myths: Aging doesn't mean inevitable decline, joint pain, or nursing homes—it's often mindset, inflammation, and poor habits. Learn why rotator cuffs aren't the "bad guys," how trunk rotation is a "silent saboteur," and simple fixes (like hip matrices) that deliver fast relief. Empower yourself: Most pain resolves quickly when you address root causes holistically, not just symptoms. Perfect for anyone dealing with back, shoulder, knee, or joint pain—or wanting to stay strong, independent, and vibrant into your 60s, 70s, and beyond.
