As you may have figured out by now, we do things a little bit differently at Pure Physio.

For example, we love the topic of pain and see it as more of a complex puzzle than most in our industry give it credit for.

We love studying it, treating it, and presenting workshops about it

The more we learn, the more it becomes clear that pain is a multi-factorial and subjective experience that varies greatly between each and everyone one of us. 

In other words, there is no simple solution. 

We don’t believe in quick fixes but instead thrive in developing a comprehensive plan that addresses pain in the long-term. 

If you’re looking a quick fix, there’s substantial research that even swearing can significantly reduce pain. Knock yourself out, but don’t expect consistent results.

Pain is weird. The research is constantly evolving but we still know very little about it.

What we do know is that if we’re not taking into consideration things such as sleep, stress, nutrition, training, etc. then we’re missing the biggest pieces of puzzle.

In summary, if there’s someone offering you a quick fix, or is telling you that the source of your pain is your “weak core” or “tight hamstrings and hip flexors,” dig deeper for a more long-term and effective solution.

Deep diving on the pain train,
