Have you experienced lingering pain after an injury that doesn’t go away even though you’ve done everything you can to heal?
Most of us assume that physical pain is a physical issue and seek medical diagnoses from expensive specialists who promise to fix the problem or at least manage the symptoms.
But what do you do when treatment doesn’t work and chronic pain becomes demoralizing?
Today I’m talking with Georgie Oldfield, a pioneering physiotherapist and founder of SIRPA–the Stress Illness Recovery Practitioners Association. She’s here to explain the connection between physical pain and emotional stress. We’re talking about issues like sciatica, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome, and how mind-body strategies can lead to remarkable recoveries.
