Everyone’s an Individual

In this special New Year’s episode, Rob and Dave say a huge thank you and reflect on some of their favourite bits from the last 12 months discussing back pain with the world’s foremost experts. It’s been a successful year for the podcast because of the people who have reached out and asked the questions that have formed the basis for the episodes so if there is something you want to hear about back pain get in touch and help shape the episodes for the New Year   KEY TAKEAWAYS Everyone is an individual it’s about finding what works for you There are a range of styles of treatment Humans and their pain is not simple, pain is multifactorial and what you experience is based on many factors Individuality in pain should not be overlooked, you need to find the right combination for you Your body changes and something that doesn’t work at the moment may work in the future Therapists need to help patients to have self-management skills You should have self-management tools that mean you can help yourself Ask your practitioner what tools you need to self-manage when your back pain wakes you at 3 am in the morning   BEST MOMENTS ‘Humans are messy, not linear or cookie-cutter what works for someone else may not work for you’ ‘If something doesn’t work for you it doesn’t mean your body is broken’ ‘You need the tools to be able to help yourself to get better’   THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ    ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.
