They unpack why back pain, knee pain, and joint degeneration are rarely isolated problems, and why treating one body part without addressing sleep, nutrition, inflammation, stress, and biomechanics often leads to temporary relief instead of lasting change.They discuss regenerative approaches like PRP and other orthobiologic therapies, metabolic optimization before procedures, laser therapy, nervous system balance, and what it really takes to create an environment where healing can occur.“If you're going to put something powerful back into your body, make sure the environment you're putting it into is ready.”This conversation challenges the quick-fix mindset and reframes pain as part of a bigger story.

Exercises Making Back Pain Worse: How To Rehab Safely

Back In Shape

Many people find their lower back pain or sciatica actually worsens when they start a rehabilitation programme. Often, this is because generic advice encourages you to simply "wiggle" or stretch the injured segment—such as a herniated disc—rather than teaching you how to stabilise it. When you perform popular but misguided exercises like unguided twists or deep forward bending, you are repeatedly straining the compromised tissues. This sheer friction and movement at the injury site only drives further inflammation and pain. A successful approach requires prioritising a neutral spine and building true core control to protect the area while it heals.Furthermore, relying solely on passive relief strategies won't build the long-term resilience your body needs. While gentle decompression is valuable for symptom management, failing to progress into strength-building exercises—like the squat or hip hinge—leaves your spine vulnerable to the unpredictable strains of daily life. Even when performing the correct movements, it is perfectly normal to experience minor setbacks as you learn proper technique. The goal is to consistently aim for aggravation-free reps, systematically building your load tolerance so that everyday tasks, from lifting a toddler to walking upstairs, no longer trigger a painful flare-up.Key Topics Covered

Send a textLow back pain is rarely just about the back.In this solo episode, I walk through what truly matters when you're trying to solve persistent lumbar issues — whether you're a practitioner guiding others or someone navigating it yourself.There are three primary drivers I consistently see:1️⃣ Manage the Client's State If the threat bucket is overflowing, nothing else sticks. Downregulation isn't optional — it's foundational.2️⃣ Build Spinal Capability and Capacity The lumbar spine cannot carry the entire load. We need equitable distribution of force across the entire spinal system, with progressive exposure to real-world demands.3️⃣ Restore Movement Intelligence The brain won't access what it doesn't recognize. Using principles from motor learning — self-organization, ecological dynamics, and constraints-based learning — we must re-establish movement quality, quantity, and strategy based on the client's actual goals.And we cannot ignore the hips and thoracic spine. They are primary accommodative zones. If they don't move well, the lumbar spine pays the price.This episode is about clarity, not complexity. About solving, not chasing symptoms.Listen now.If you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston.

Leaking urine? Painful sex? Constipation? TMJ? Back Pain?They can all be related to the musculoskeletal or genitourinary syndrome of menopause. Simply, tightness and/or dysfunction in the pelvic floor.In this interview, Andrea Donsky, a nutritionist, published menopause researcher, author, menopause educator, and co-founder of wearemorphus.com, talks with Jana Danielson, a wellness entrepreneur, Pilates educator, and creator of the Cooch Ball pelvic floor training tool.Topics:Pelvic Health and the Body's Connection: The discussion of how the pelvic floor is an integrated structure, not a standalone group of muscles.The Pelvic Floor and Core: The interview explains the anatomy of the pelvic floor and how it can function optimally (watch it on YouTube for visuals).The Importance of Breathing and Posture: A core theme is that breathing is the most fundamental pelvic floor strategy, and optimal posture is also key to pelvic floor function.Pelvic Floor Dysfunction and Misconceptions: Jana challenges the belief that dysfunction is "normal" during aging, stating that "common is not normal." Stressing that a too-tight (hypertonic) muscle is just as dysfunctional as a weak one.The Cooch Ball and the Release-Rebuild Method: The Cooch Ball method focuses on 30 days of "release only" to promote blood flow to the tissue, followed by a rebuild phase using exercises that integrate the pelvic floor with other muscles in the body.Impact on Libido and Orgasm: Andrea and Jana discuss how improving blood flow and releasing tension in the pelvic tissues can increase libido and the ability to have pleasure.The Pudendal Nerve and Shame: The Latin root of the word "pudendal" means "an area of shame", and this emotional context is connected to the lack of discussion and understanding of pelvic health.Links:Cooch Ball For Women: https://bit.ly/4qGRF3O Cooch Ball For Men: https://bit.ly/402Arme (great for men experiencing erectile dysfunction or dribbling)Pelvic Health Survey: https://forms.gle/RXM4BpFLtgP5m8nD9 Send a text ======Morphus: Menopause Reimagine

Brent Ness, CEO and President of Aclarion,  highlights the challenges of diagnosing and treating chronic lower back pain, a leading driver of healthcare costs and opioid addiction. Traditional MRI and CT imaging do not reveal the biochemical source of pain within spinal discs, leading to misdiagnosis and unsuccessful treatment. The Aclarion technology uses MR spectroscopy to measure pain-causing biomarkers and, through a cloud-based, AI-powered SaaS model, analyzes the raw data and sends the physician a report within minutes. Brent explains, "The diagnosis and accurate treatment planning of back pain are incredibly complex. And when you think about pain management physicians, rehab, all the way up to spine surgery identifying the source of pain accurately leads to better treatment and then obviously better outcomes.There are 266 million people around the world who suffer from chronic low back pain. So I'm not talking about the kind that you had a rough weekend skiing, golfing, or hiking, and you're a little sore. I'm talking about the kind that keeps people from participating in a meaningful life. " "When you think about the joints and the sources of blood flow, the nerves that are all around your spinal cord, the vertebral columns, and there's just a lot of moving parts and a lot of really, let's just call it high-value real estate that can actually be the source of pain. And really, our superpower is to help physicians see the invisible. Meaning that normally when you go to the doctor, and they do a workup on you, they'll use an MRI or a CT scanner. And those modalities are really good at pinpointing anatomical issues that might be causing pain. What we do is we use MR spectroscopy, not to make a picture of your back, but rather to measure the biomarker content inside the discs that are invisible on a normal MRI. And as it turns out, what's inside your disc can actually be the source of pain." #ACON #CLARITYtrial #lowbackpain #spinesurgery #MRSpectroscopy #Biomarkers #AugmentedIntelligence #innovation #ChronicPain #BackPain #MedicalTechnology #AI #HealthcareInnovation #SpineCare #MRI #PainManagement #DigitalHealth #Diagnostics #HealthTech #PatientCare aclarion.com Download the transcript here

Jacqueline was always a "good girl" - putting pressure on herself to get straight A's, be thin and pretty, and always be the light for other people. When her debilitating back pain began in her 20's, she had no idea that those behaviors could possibility have anything to do with it. After two surgeries, and pain that kept moving around, Jacqueline found Dr. Sarno and my work, and her life has never been the same. Although she thought she would never say it, she is straight up grateful for the pain, as it has opened her to a whole new way of living. Oh, and one little detail - Jacqueline is 100% chronic pain free. She's also a therapist specializing in this work now! Check out this awesome and inspirational conversation. XOOX n.

If you've had back pain for years and you still don't trust your body… I want you to know something. That doesn't make you broken. It makes you chase the wrong strategy. The biggest trap in chronic back pain isn't your disc. It's the idea that your pain is coming from damage, structure, or something fragile that needs constant protection. When you believe that, your nervous system stays guarded, your muscles stay tight, and your tolerance for normal life keeps shrinking In this video, I walk you through the three biggest lies that keep people cycling through flare-ups, treatments, and temporary relief. Not to shame you. To finally give you clarity. You'll see why doing more of the wrong thing is the slowest way forward. Why mixing random methods without a system keeps progress unpredictable. And why real recovery doesn't start with strength, posture, or perfect exercises; it starts by teaching your system that it's safe again This is the identity shift most people never make.From “the person with a bad back”… To “I've got this handled.” When sensitivity comes down first, strength actually sticks. Flare-ups get smaller. Movement stops feeling like a risk. And life gets bigger again instead of smaller If you're tired of managing symptoms and ready to fix the foundation, start here.

What if you finally reach the peak of your career—only to have your body shut it down? Why are so many dentists forced to cancel clinics, not because of burnout or skill, but because of crippling back pain? And what if this “expected hazard of dentistry” didn't actually have to be inevitable? In this episode, Dr. Aniko Ball joins Jaz to challenge the long-held belief that chronic pain is just part of being a dentist. As an expert in dental ergonomics and the Alexander Technique, she reveals why so many clinicians are unknowingly damaging their bodies every single day—and how simple, overlooked changes can completely transform career longevity. The mission for this episode was simple: deliver five genuinely life-changing, immediately actionable tips to protect your neck, back, and future. No fluff. No theory for theory's sake. Just practical changes you can implement straight away—starting from your very next clinic session. If your health matters to you as much as your dentistry, this is an unmissable episode. https://youtu.be/u7hEOPpEsGA Watch PDP27 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl: Cut toxic noise, protect time for your health, and optimize the small habits you repeat daily. You only rotate ~10–13 meals—upgrade those, move a little more, sleep a little better. Small, consistent upgrades compound into an unrecognisable year. Key Takeaways: Back pain in dentistry is not inevitable—it is largely the result of cumulative postural habits. Most dental pain comes from holding positions the body was never designed to hold, not from single traumatic events. Lifting the elbow or shoulder for prolonged periods activates movement muscles, guaranteeing shoulder and upper back pain. A finger rest must be used on the non-dominant hand holding the mirror, not just the dominant hand. Hovering the mirror is equivalent to holding the arm raised against gravity. The spine is not designed for sustained bending or twisting, even slightly. Staying vertical is critical—move the patient and the chair, not your spine. Traditional loupes often force neck flexion; refractive loupes or microscopes allow upright posture and straight-ahead vision. Stool height matters: hips slightly higher than knees, feet flat, heels fully released into the floor. If leg weight isn't given to the floor, the lower back absorbs the load instead. Habits outside the clinic—especially looking down at a mobile phone—train the same harmful postural patterns used in dentistry. Postural change feels strange at first because bad habits feel comfortable, even when they are damaging. Real change requires habit interruption, repetition, and support over several weeks. Your body is your most important instrument—protecting it protects your career.

The conversation isn't just about pain relief; it's about mastering mobility, building healthspan, and making sustainable changes for the long run.Here are our top 3 takeaways:Healthspan should MATCH lifespan: Don't just aim to live longer; aim to maximize the years you're strong, mobile, and active. Dr. Coffman highlights that the average person spends about 12 years in poor health—let's reduce that gap!Personalization is key: One-size-fits-all care doesn't exist. Whether it's strength training, lifestyle tweaks, or balancing work/life demands, effective plans are tailored to each person's goals and realities.It's never too late to start: No matter your age or starting point, small, consistent steps—like upping your daily steps, increasing fiber, or focusing on balance—can lead to meaningful improvement.We love Dr. Coffman's reminder that we should set realistic goals, move consistently, and fiercely protect our function as we age.

If back pain and leaking show up together for you, it is not a coincidence and it is not two separate problems. In this episode, Dr. Ar'neka explains how pressure management connects low back pain and pelvic floor leaking, especially in active moms.You will learn why an overworked, tight back causes your body to brace harder, how that bracing increases pressure through your system, and why leaking is often the result. This is not a pelvic floor failure. It is a pressure and coordination issue.We also break down why common fixes like Kegels, stretching, and avoiding movement do not work long term and what actually helps your body feel supported again. When your back stops doing all the work and your core and breath do their jobs, both pain and leaking can improve.If you are tired of guessing and want a plan that addresses your back, core, and pelvic floor together, book a Discovery Visit at Resilient Spine and let's find your root cause.Book your free 20-minute discovery call to chat about your goals and ways I can support you!Thank you so much for checking out this The Resilient Body Podcast episode.

BE AFRAID!!" rather than "Yeah, we can sort this. Don't worry about it."I highlight some of the tactics used to trick you into buying something you don't need.I also talk about why I think most people will have enough if they have follow a good postpartum program for 3 months. After that you should really be able to start doing what you actually want to do again.As always; HPNB only has 5 billing cycles.

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “If you felt what I feel, you'd drink too”? Chuck gets that. For years, a combination of work stress, long commutes, and intense back pain had him pouring more than he ever planned. Drinks became his “off switch” at the end of the day and then his go-to whenever his body flared. Eventually, the pain calmed down and the stressful job shifted, but the habit of drinking stuck around—which was the wake-up call he couldn't ignore. In this episode, Chuck and Coach Cole talk through the messy, human side of quitting alcohol when you have chronic pain, including what happened when his back suddenly “went out” again after months alcohol-free. Chuck shares how appropriate medical care, a short course of prescribed meds, and a strong internal “I am not starting over” helped him stay off the bottle. You'll hear how he rebuilt his routine around daily stretching, core strength, and even a zero-gravity nap, plus why music and creative hobbies feel better than any buzz. They also dig into boundaries—leaving family gatherings early, pushing back (diplomatically) at work, and deciding he no longer has to sit and absorb other people's behavior to be polite. If you've ever wondered whether you can rebuild your life around what you love instead of avoiding what hurts, this conversation is for you. Coach Cole and Chuck discuss: Slipping from teenage partying into midlife self-medication with alcohol Realizing the job and pain changed, but the drinking stayed Navigating quitting alcohol when you have chronic pain Facing a second major back episode alcohol-free and nearly getting derailed Why alcohol never truly solves stress, family conflict, or health issues Using “walk away” as a valid backup plan at triggering gatherings And more… Episode links: www.alcoholexperiment.com Related Episodes: I've Used Wine to Numb Physical Pain | Reader Question | E196 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-196-i-used-wine-to-numb-physical-pain-now-without-it-my-quality-of-life-is-way-down-what-can-i-do/  Overcoming Using Alcohol as a Pain Reliever | Reader Question | E656 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-656-readers-question-overcoming-using-alcohol-as-a-pain-reliever/ Alcohol Doesn't Relieve My Pain, It Steals My Joy | Alcohol Freedom Coaching | E732 - https://thisnakedmind.com/alcohol-freedom-coaching-alcohol-doesnt-relieve-my-pain-it-steals-my-joy-ep-732/ Ready to take the next step on your journey?  Visit https://learn.thisnakedmind.com/podcast-resources for free resources, programs, and more.
