Resources to help your recovery from persistent pain
"Tame the beast"
Lorrimer Moseley, leading pain scientist, presents an easy to understand cartoon explanation of persistent pain.
"Why things hurt"
A recording of Lorrimer Moseley presenting an understanding of why things hurt - a little more in depth, with more scientific language, at times funny!
The Back Pain Podcast
A fantastic podcast that explores the facts and busts the (many) myths that surround back pain. I was fortunate enough to train alongside Rob and Dave who were a couple years ahead of me at University. Some of my favourite episodes include:
* All about Fibromyalgia with Dr Deepak Ravindran
* Should I see a Chiropractor, Physiotherapist or Osteopath? with Mike James
*10 things everyone with back pain shoulder know with Professor Kieran O'Sullivan
Understanding Pain IN less than 5 MINUTES & what to do about it
Another brilliant video explaining why some pain goes on and on, and how to start the recovery process.
Yoga with AdrienE
Millions (!!!) of people have come to know and love Adriene's free YouTube yoga classes. Having done many classes myself, I think she offers yoga suitable for those suffering with ongoing aches and pains. You can search specific ailments, using the magnifying glass, for example Yoga for Lower Back Pain.
Vitamin D
We lack sunshine in the UK! Low levels of Vitamin D (obtained usually from healthy sun exposure) can exacerbate persistent pain. If we have discussed Vitamin D in clinic, you may purchase your Vitamin D test by clicking here. You may also consult your GP. Learn more about Vitamin D by clicking the Learn More button.
