Listen "Getting People to Actually Fix Physical Pain"

Episode Synopsis

Do any of these sound familiar?
"My back hurts, but that's just part of being an adult."
"My knee's hurt ever since that injury in high school, but it's all right - I manage."
"My shoulder's been bugging me for a while, especially when I sleep at night, but it's nothing I can't handle."
Here are two common threads:
1. Most of us have either experienced these beliefs or know someone who has, and
2. None of this is actually "healthy" or "normal".
We have NORMALIZED pain. THIS ISN'T HEALTHY AND IT'S NOT HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO WORK ANYMORE.
Jonathan Pishner of Apex Counseling and I talk about this very real social belief and talk about fixing your pain!
