Managing Chronic Pain
Change your relationship with pain to liberate your body
Chronic pain can completely consume your life, every moment being disrupted by your body screaming at you. And because of this it can be difficult to figure out how to make changes when you can barely think. I have been in the same boat with the auto immune disease, ankylosing spondylitis. The pain from this inflammatory condition derailed my life for many years until I figured out how to change my relationship with the pain.
Changing my relationship with pain involved finding empowering techniques that gave me some distance to the pain in my body and then building the knowledge of pain systems so I understand what I could control and what I couldn’t. Then leveraging techniques that completely changed the way my brain processed pain. Instead of this taking 6 years like it did for me I want to get you going in the right direction over a few weeks
