The Why "It Depends" Podcast

This podcast is an exploration into the anatomical and physiological mechanisms and nuances behind different approaches in the fitness and therapy industries. We want to bridge the gap and open conversations between different schools of thought and practices within the rehabilitative and human performance sector. This is all in hopes to discover and educate ourselves and our listeners on the commonalities and differences within each approach.

    Episode #19: Understanding Pain Perception with Kyle Poland

    In today's episode we have the absolute pleasure of welcoming Kyle Poland. Kyle started his education at the University of Waterloo where he completed an Honours Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology, specializing in rehabilitation sciences. His passion for helping the injured with exercise grew leading him to become a certified strength and conditioning specialist, working with the public as a strength coach. Kyle then wanted to further his education to get a better understanding of how to help others completing a Master's of Science in Biomechanics and Neurophysiology at the University of Guelph where his thesis focused on Central Sensitization, a neurological phenomenon of how pain can persist for so long. Kyle is currently teaching sciences and providing virtual training, empowering those with chronic pain to continue participating in exercise and their favourite activities despite lingering injuries. In today's show Kyle and I dive into the complexities of Pain anatomy and physiology, some of the many factors which can contribute to pain perception, central sensitization, referred and projected pain as well as clinical applications of these concepts. We hope you enjoy the show!
