Hello everyone, I listen to an interesting podcast from Curable. Curable seems to have two podcasts, one were Alan Gordon host and another called “Like Mind Like Body”. Anyway, episode from 8-28-18 from the LMLB the host interviews an investigative journalist Cathryn Ramin who wrote a book “Crooked” about her 6 yr investigation into the back industry. I have the book on order and will update after I read it. She seems to have concluded the realities of TMS, but from her website also believes in strengthening the core muscles. Her website has a tab for Dr Stuart McGill a biomechanics professor at Waterloo. I’m familiar with McGill as I have read his book Back Mechanic. McGill make no reference to emotions or psychological factors and all focus is on core strength and proper movements.
My thought was that there may be a place for both. People who have lived with chronic pain and have altered their movements would in no doubt have muscle atrophy in those areas. The person who has cured themself 70-90% may get that last bit with core work or in whatever area of deficiency. Obviously just getting active again could accomplish that.
Anyway, just a thought. This stuff may have already been talked about. I’ve just been here 4 weeks and sometimes feel like someone who was late to the party.
