Clare joins Rob and Dave and discusses her own journey of treatment and learning  around sciatica

She explains how trial and error is a vital part of recovery and why mindset and belief play an important role in getting well.

This is a journey that many will resonant with and Clare shares some key points that altered her thinking, impacted positively on her recovery and have led to success.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS


My stoic attitude helped because it was a routine but battling through and just putting up with the pain was detrimental
I’ve been the one who has made all the discoveries because nobody told me anything
If you are changing how you think about things you are changing the neural pathways
You have to have an open mind and consider everything
I discovered my body didn’t move in the way it should do, years of pain had led to overcompensation and I was stuck in a vicious cycle of pain
Exercise and movement are two of the most important things for pain
My brain said to certain areas of my body don’t move because it will hurt creating internal fear avoidance
I’m now tricking my brain to make myself  believe I’m well and healthy  and to calm my central nervous system
We are all unique and individual and this is the same with the pain we experience
Engaging people around you and helping them to understand will help you
Everything matters when it comes to pain because of how it impacts
People can get well; it is possible to recover but people need to understand that their pain is their responsibility

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s all been about me being curious and wanting to find out about my body’

‘When people keep telling you there is nothing wrong it makes you want to scream’

‘You have to try things, trial and error is a massive thing’
