• All too often, pain is considered something we must deal with.
  • We treat it, medicate it and even curse it.
  • Yet for most musculoskeletal pain, facilitated patterns of muscle guarding/splinting is the driving force.
  • This primal mechanism has seldom been considered.
  • Is it possible that billions of dollars are wasted on various therapies/medications/surgeries which might not have been necessary?
  • Our economic state of recession would be an ideal time to begin to triage musculoskeletal pain before launching into the typical expenditures which were traditional in the past.
  • Pain isn’t as tough to treat and resolve as we’ve been led to believe.
  • It’s about reaching it at it’s source and observing the response within seconds of treatment.

Maybe this will lead us to truly know what pain is.

God speed
