They discuss the challenges of being told many different things, medication and why the programme is life-changing KEY TAKEAWAYS You can go to various physiotherapists and be told many different things, it can become a shopping list given to patients without any real idea of what it means to manage the problem I was pushed out of my comfort zone in many different ways but I was in an environment with people who understood and shared their experiences, it was enlightening in many ways and restored my faith in human nature In the first days of the course there will be many accounts of the shopping list of problems  people have been told about their bodies When a professional tells you something you believe them because they are the expert in that area. The programme has taken on a lot of feedback and has evolved, with lots of previous patients contributing to the programme It should be a front-ended option for people with persistent pain who want to learn deeply to take control and get happy again To know with confidence that doing things isn’t going to cause any more damage has made me stronger than I’ve ever been The course gives you the confidence to understand how the body is working, what it's telling you and what’s dangerous and what isn’t BEST MOMENTS‘There wasn’t one thing that was important, the whole course is important every aspect of it is important’‘Everyone’s experiences had put them in a dark place’‘He led us through those grotty times and showed us where we could be today’‘It’s given me back my confidence and I do more than I’ve ever done before,'I no longer believe the pain is causing damage’ THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAINhttps://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/ VALUABLE RESOURCESThe Back Pain PodcastThe Back Pain Podcast websiteThe Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate linkOur Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bxOur Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9ZSecond Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeAXLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZBStudio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LELaptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafTOur webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ  ABOUT THE HOSTSDave ElliottDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

They discuss the importance of exercise plans and how increasing functional capacity is an important element of any treatment plan and share a great analogy to help understanding

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Any conservative or passive care doesn’t necessarily decrease pain from issues such as osteoarthritis
  • People assume massage is aimed at reducing pain but its about increasing functional capacity
  • If we improve the capacity of someone’s knee health then it means they can do more
  • Exercise increases the capacity and your threshold so you are increasing functional capacity
  • You have to look at the bigger picture, if you knee or back is stopping you doing the things you want in life then surgery may be the option to consider
  • If you are utilising exercise as part of your treatment plan you need to look at usage and function as well as lessening pain levels
  • Having an expectation of no pain can result in less resilience

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘You may be able to do more with the same amount of pain’

‘Pain is a very normal aspect of society’

‘We can usually increase your capacity but this may not lessen the level of pain’

This is a learning episode where the discussion is a great opportunity to carefully consider what you do as a clinician with the evolution of diagnostic labelling

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • The research is now saying a diagnostic label is not as important as previously thought
  • There is back pain that needs a specific diagnosis but this is not the case for the  majority of non-specific back pain
  • With non-specific back pain we know it’s nothing sinister or serious and what’s left is a combination of other things
  • Many things can be contributing to the pain and the treatments and outcomes are similar for non-specific back pain
  • Understanding the multifactorial and compounding aspect of non-specific back pain means there are a multitude of things you can do to help yourself
  • The vast majority of patients will be better in 12 weeks
  • It makes sense for us to stop using these labels and be better at explaining

BEST MOMENTS

‘Our previous notion of a single answer to find is a bit immature’

‘A more holistic approach may lead to better outcomes’

‘This is evolving and changing our diagnostic labelling in line with current research’

What is appropriate for one person may not be the right thing for another but this is an opportunity to find out more about how different types of medication work and the reasons why specific treatments are used

 KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Short-term, acute pain treatments include anti-inflammatory medication which works on damping down the  inflammation
  • Milder opioids like codeine are often given in conjunction with co-codamol
  • Opiates work on opioid receptors that trigger the pain response
  • Medications can be very effective but they do have side effects and it’s important that people know about these
  • People need to become active to repair the back and it’s about the medication that can help support this
  • Antidepressants are now recommended for chronic pain because they work on neurotransmitters
  • The topical gels and patches do really work and for many people, it’s a much better option as the side effects profile is less

  BEST MOMENTS

‘The smallest dose is the best dose’

‘We need you to get moving and you need pain relief onboard to get moving because this is what will be the biggest help’

‘GPs are always assessing the risk and the benefits of any medication’

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Whatever your discipline the tenets are the same when you talking about pain
  • As osteopaths and chiropractors, we are talking the same words just in a different language
  • A disc doesn’t have to present with radicular symptoms initially
  • Back or cervical disc issues have to be considered
  • When the range of motion is restricted isolating the areas and specific groups of muscles, joints and nerves can help with the diagnosis
  • If the specific pain is on a full extension this is a classic sign of a set joint irritation
  • If you experience pain over a period of time fear avoidance can become a part of the individual's experience
  • The biggest test can be the basic test of ‘poking it’
  • Everything is testing and a provocative test can be seeing the patient coming into the room
  • A test doesn’t have to have a name and make it onto your notes

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘The basic tenets of good care should be what you are going by’

‘Identifying which one is the head honcho and ruling the show is what we are looking for’

‘Your provocative test starts when you greet that patient’

Learn what RED-S actually is, the signs to look out for and how it’s a syndrome that affects not only elite athletes but also recreational athletes and other cohorts

This is a must-listen for anyone from professionals to weekend warriors in understanding the symptoms of RED-S and raising awareness 

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • It’s a mismatch of energy intake and energy expended, it’s a low energy availability status
  • There is a normalisation of certain symptoms such as a lack of periods and rates of depression and anxiety are much higher in those who have RED-S
  • Coaches and trainers are the key because they see people every week and would see the changes
  • A lack of periods can be an early sign of RED-S and should be investigated
  • It’s can be about both the workload and the dietary intake and a multi-disciplinary approach is the most effective way to treat RED-S
  • People with RED-S are often post viral most of the time and low in iron
  • Currently, it's about raising awareness about it with training and education
  • Any treatment must be bespoke as the time and types of food are also factors in taking in enough energy
  • There are many external factors as well as internal factors that need to be taken into account

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘We need to raise awareness of all the symptoms throughout all levels of sport’

‘If someone has reduced periods they should go and see someone as its most likely  a result of low energy availability’

‘There are a lot of doctors who don’t know about this’

Rob also discusses the importance of explaining to your healthcare  professional why you have made an appointment and what you want to get back to doing to ensure the treatment plan is successful

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • People often mistakenly think it will take longer to recover from a major incident or intensive pain than when they have a mild pain or mild distressing experience
  • We often only take action when the pain reaches a particular threshold
  • When something isn’t too bad we may choose to ignore it
  • When it’s awful we will do something about it taking action that makes it better faster
  • As a patient it’s important to tell your practitioner why you have booked in now and what you want to get back to doing
  • Explaining ‘why’ helps to inform the  direction of the treatment plan
  • It's more than just making the pain better its getting you back to the activities you want to do

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘You may get stuck in region Beta where the less worse thing lasts longer than the worse thing’

‘If we don’t know what you want to get back to, we might not fully prepare you for the demands of it’

It’s not the exercise that’s wrong it’s the narrative around it Humans are not all the same We are all different so we should act like it. We won't all conform to the same baseline Deconstruct the exercise into its components and work at it as long as you are building and progressing you can be ok with what you are achieving It's better to be fighting towards the next level even if you don't ever get there Human movement has a bell curve and you may be an outlier   BEST MOMENTS ‘People who do CrossFit bloody love what they do’ ‘Never stop aiming for the perfect movement but be ok with it if it never comes’ ‘Some people just do have a bit of a wonky squat’   RESOURCES FOR THIS EPISODE Episode 11 CrossFit and Back Pain   THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ    ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

As one of the major ligaments inside the knee, it plays an important role in stabilising the knee joint and helps to control the movement of the lower leg but is a common sports injury and Andrew shares great informative content that will help anyone to know what to expect from recovery and how to make sure their treatment is the right one for them

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • The mechanism, force and speed at which ASL happens means it’s likely there will also be other damage
  • Calming the knee down means that it’s possible to get a good quality image and reduce the pain
  • Getting the quadricep thigh muscles working efficiently as quickly as possible will bring  stability
  • Initially, it’s about doing less but maintaining strength and function
  • For most surgery is part of the process and in the UK 80% of people have surgery
  • Taking a section of the hamstring tendon and using it as an ASL graft is the most common approach in the UK
  • It’s bespoke surgery for your needs, your situation and taking into account the factors that have predisposed you to being injured 
  • Rehab is likely to be around a year with anything less being exceptional progress
  • Phase one is calming down, phase two is the building of load and phase three will be moving closer to training
  • The final phase is preventative activities and a return to training

 

BEST MOMENTS 

‘In some sports movements, the rotation through the leg translates as an inwards movement of the knee’

‘I’m essentially trying to come out of the session with a diagnosis and a plan’

‘If you can rapidly reduce swelling and pain the person is more likely to be able to use the knee and keep muscle function’

‘Stability is dynamic and controlled by lots of systems, it’s the integrity of the ligament that is crucial’

He  shares the diagnosis of intermittent vascular claudication with a patient and explains the crucial indicators that led to the diagnosis along with the treatment   KEY TAKEAWAYS Intermittent pain in both legs can have several causes Intermittent peripheral arterial disease is to do with the blood supply. When you are walking muscles in the legs require more blood supply and can't get it Patients often describe a cramping or burning sensation in the thighs Vascular risk factors including smoking, weight, diabetes and age increase the likelihood of intermittent peripheral arterial disease What he told us about the pain was crucial in making a clinical decision. The type and duration of the pain was an important indicator High blood pressure raises the likelihood of it being vascular A significant reduction in blood flow in the legs will be an indicator of a vascular issue Patients with vascular claudication have a much higher risk factor for an acute vascular episode   BEST MOMENTS ‘As health professionals, we often provoke pain to understand the source’ ‘Changes can take time but will make a difference’ ‘It’s one we have to stay alert for as health care professionals’   THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ    ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 1470 Managing Lower Back Pain and Sciatica https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/108-bpp Rob and Dave use a real-life example to explore how they would treat and manage a  patient who comes to them having already experienced conflicting advice They go through the steps that are covered in an initial appointment and discuss the points at which a scan is the right choice along with what sorts of manual therapy can be a good choice Practitioners approach patients in different ways but you should always expect a very individualised treatment plan and this is a great opportunity to find out about what you should expect and why   KEY TAKEAWAYS The first step should be taking a really detailed history and the patient's thoughts and beliefs are a vital part of the conversation It provides insight and an understanding that helps with building a personalised plan It’s the two-way conversation between the practitioner and the patient With sciatica, it’s about calming down the most aggravated part first Sometimes over testing  can make it more difficult to assess, move up to the pain, it’s not about aggravating it Patients can be fearful and avoid particular movements but it can be used as part of the methodology of building toward graded exposure The most important exercise is the one the patient does You need to look at an individual patient's tolerance to pain and make  any exercise  personalised A lot of changes seen on a scan are perfectly normal It's about focusing on the structural pathology There are always the red flag questions that result in a scan being the right approach Manual therapy provides  a window of opportunity to feel better   BEST MOMENTS ‘People who are fearful and worried about their pain tend to have  longer term  back pain’ ‘If a patient believes something should be done it’s important to explore it’ ‘If something is painful it doesn’t mean it's being damaged’   THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ    ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

They go through the steps that are covered in an initial appointment and discuss the points at which a scan is the right choice along with what sorts of manual therapy can be a good choice

Practitioners approach patients in different ways but you should always expect a very individualised treatment plan and this is a great opportunity to find out about what you should expect and why

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • The first step should be taking a really detailed history and the patient's thoughts and beliefs are a vital part of the conversation
  • It provides insight and an understanding that helps with building a personalised plan
  • It’s the two-way conversation between the practitioner and the patient
  • With sciatica, it’s about calming down the most aggravated part first
  • Sometimes over testing  can make it more difficult to assess, move up to the pain, it’s not about aggravating it
  • Patients can be fearful and avoid particular movements but it can be used as part of the methodology of building toward graded exposure
  • The most important exercise is the one the patient does
  • You need to look at an individual patient's tolerance to pain and make  any exercise  personalised
  • A lot of changes seen on a scan are perfectly normal It's about focusing on the structural pathology
  • There are always the red flag questions that result in a scan being the right approach
  • Manual therapy provides  a window of opportunity to feel better

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘People who are fearful and worried about their pain tend to have  longer term  back pain’

‘If a patient believes something should be done it’s important to explore it’

‘If something is painful it doesn’t mean it's being damaged’

They also discuss what Kinesio tape and foam rolling actually do and what part of the routine where  Kinesio tape and foam rollers  are used is really important, listen in and hear the answers

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Acute and chronic are used to refer to the time frame, the amount of time you have had the pain
  • Chronic refers to pain for over 3 months anything under that is described as acute
  • The skill of any practitioner is going from medical language to patient language
  • Part of our journey as healthcare practitioners is understanding the impact of the language we use
  • Tape changes the sensation from a painful area to a non-painful one giving your brain something else to focus on
  • There are lots of claims about what foam rollers can do but they are in reality a way to self-massage
  • The action of getting up and moving to complete physical actions is what’s important
  • Warming up is a vital part of the exercise you are
  • Walking increases blood flow far more than rolling around on a Victorian torture device

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s elasticated tape at the end of the day, it doesn’t do anything magical

‘I will warm up for the session doing squats, I won’t spend twenty minutes flapping around on a foam roller and getting into weird positions’

‘Never do anything that actively causes pain’

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Nerve related pain is usually a radiating pain, not a pain that can be pinpointed to one spot
  • Always compare left and right  talking to the patient about how the affected side feels compared to the other side
  • We need to establish a normative area, you cannot just compare left and right because you may miss a sensory deficit
  • Test sensation using something neutral like tissue or cotton wool
  • The key to neurological examination is understanding single items in isolation have no relevant value it's putting together the pieces
  • You have to make the pieces fit together to understand the picture
  • Studies use the reference testing of MRI imaging or inter surgical findings which don’t tell us anything about the loss of function, the definition of radiculopathy
  • Radiculopathy is a clinical diagnosis that includes the neurological examination
  • The reference standard should be the clinical diagnosis because that’s what radiculopathy is
  • For a nerve to be affected it doesn’t need something to be directly encroaching or deforming it
  • We are imaging macro structure but a nerve can be affected on the inside so we should be looking further are the inside of the nerve
  • Severe motor deficit or progressive motor deficit will be a referral
  • We do not need to be specialists but we do need an awareness of what can masquerade as radiculopathy and refer to the right professional

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘If the patient has  lower back pain and it radiates into the buttock it’s enough for me to do an examination’

‘With radiculopathy, the reference standard should be the neurological examination’

 ‘If there is a pain and it radiates this would trigger a neurological examination’

There's lots you can do from strength work throughout the year through to changing it up with different tasks and knowing when to stop

As the sun starts  to shine listening to this is a great way to get back into the garden the best way- without back pain

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • It’s a seasonal activity so not doing anything and then doing lots can be challenging
  • Gardening doesn’t have a graded exposure mentality
  • Lightweight activities completed over an extended time period may not be ideal
  • Gardening is weather dependant and this can lead to excessive activity load in a short time frame
  • There is a steep exposure when you get back into gardening in the spring
  • Repetitive exercise over the year can help as graded exposure activity making you better prepared for gardening
  • Switch up your tasks to break up long term exposure, break the activities down into manageable chunks
  • Set yourself specific targets and monitor how you feel building before extending the task target

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘That 20kg bag of compost still weighs 20kg and you may not have been maintaining your 20kg lifting muscles over the winter

‘Stay active and strong throughout the year’

Don’t fall into the ‘just a little bit more trap’

Rob's Guest Appearance https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/tbpp-101 Rob is a guest on the Knowledge Exchange podcast talking about misconnections and what good quality care looks like He discusses the power of the words and language used by practitioners and explains why he is an advocate for clear and simple communication with patients. Practitioners need to understand where patients are coming from and acknowledge their beliefs working with them to support them in achieving their goals. Being a high-level communicator and sharing strengths is crucial for success for any practitioner who is working with patients   KEY TAKEAWAYS MRIs are a valuable tool the challenges are in the reporting An MRI shows everything, they need to be explained carefully and used in conjunction with your medical history and consultation Posture is ingrained in our culture but can be misunderstood The problem isn’t the position you sit in it’s the movement you make Postural devices don’t help with posture Communication is key and we always want to communicate with patients in a clear and easily understood way A summary at the end of consultation can really help to make sure the patient leaves with the right information and understanding Acknowledge the patient's beliefs and work with them to change the narrative Building trust with the patient and understanding their goals and beliefs is crucial As healthcare professionals, we have a responsibility to make sure we are sharing correct and factual information We have the opportunity to educate and inform people, we are primarily patient-facing and want to put out clear simple information for people We want patients to know what to expect when they meet with their healthcare practitioner Having groups means we can understand more about what people are going through and is the opportunity to share and signpost potential support Passive care is when something is done to the patient and active care is something the patient does for themselves    BEST MOMENTS ‘MRIs don’t cause back pain, it’s about the reporting ‘For patients, it’s their story’ ‘You have to meet patients where they are at and begin from there’   THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ    RESOURCES FOR THIS EPISODE The Knowledge Exchange Podcast    ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • MRIs are a valuable tool the challenges are in the reporting
  • An MRI shows everything, they need to be explained carefully and used in conjunction with your medical history and consultation
  • Posture is ingrained in our culture but can be misunderstood
  • The problem isn’t the position you sit in it’s the movement you make
  • Postural devices don’t help with posture
  • Communication is key and we always want to communicate with patients in a clear and easily understood way
  • A summary at the end of consultation can really help to make sure the patient leaves with the right information and understanding
  • Acknowledge the patient's beliefs and work with them to change the narrative
  • Building trust with the patient and understanding their goals and beliefs is crucial
  • As healthcare professionals, we have a responsibility to make sure we are sharing correct and factual information
  • We have the opportunity to educate and inform people, we are primarily patient-facing and want to put out clear simple information for people
  • We want patients to know what to expect when they meet with their healthcare practitioner
  • Having groups means we can understand more about what people are going through and is the opportunity to share and signpost potential support
  • Passive care is when something is done to the patient and active care is something the patient does for themselves 

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘MRIs don’t cause back pain, it’s about the reporting

‘For patients, it’s their story’

‘You have to meet patients where they are at and begin from there’

]]> 654 What Type of Headache Do I Have – Elizabeth Huzzey on the Most Common Headache Types https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/098-bpp Elizabeth Huzzey who has over 30 years of clinical experience specialises in headache disorders and in this episode discusses the development and increasing knowledge about different types of headaches that can be experienced Understanding your headache is vital so that you can choose how to manage your headaches and seek help from the right professional Elizabeth shares informative content on the various types of headaches and discusses some of the ways headaches can be managed effectively, listen in, and find out more    KEY TAKEAWAYS 99% of the time headaches are not something to worry about but if you have a sudden onset ,severe headache you should seek immediate help There are three hundred different types of headaches and they are divided into two types – primary and secondary Primary headaches are divided into 3 categories, tension, migraines, and TAC Most of us will have a tension-type headache at some time A migraine is a neurological event that you are generally genetically predisposed to A migraine with aura begins with a small electrical wave going through the outer part of the brain. It’s a sign your migraine is about to happen The typical migraine headache is one-sided, unilateral, and generally over the eye and side of the head When experiencing a migraine headache, it is difficult to function Activation of the nervous system causes an expression of a neuropeptide and the protein creates a sensitivity in part of the brain Triptans stop the pain of the headache because they stop the dilation of blood vessels if taken in time CGRP blocks the neuropeptide and can stop the headache from beginning TAC headaches are always on one side and the extreme pain can result in people feeling very agitated The hypothalamus is involved in cluster headaches so the headaches can often happen seasonally at the same time of the day   BEST MOMENTS ‘Visual auras are very common’ ‘Most people will need to find a quiet dark room and wait for the storm to pass’ ‘When you have experienced an aura repeatedly it becomes a familiar sign that a migraine is beginning’   THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ    RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE Watford Osteopaths   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • 99% of the time headaches are not something to worry about but if you have a sudden onset ,severe headache you should seek immediate help
  • There are three hundred different types of headaches and they are divided into two types – primary and secondary
  • Primary headaches are divided into 3 categories, tension, migraines, and TAC
  • Most of us will have a tension-type headache at some time
  • A migraine is a neurological event that you are generally genetically predisposed to
  • A migraine with aura begins with a small electrical wave going through the outer part of the brain. It’s a sign your migraine is about to happen
  • The typical migraine headache is one-sided, unilateral, and generally over the eye and side of the head
  • When experiencing a migraine headache, it is difficult to function
  • Activation of the nervous system causes an expression of a neuropeptide and the protein creates a sensitivity in part of the brain
  • Triptans stop the pain of the headache because they stop the dilation of blood vessels if taken in time
  • CGRP blocks the neuropeptide and can stop the headache from beginning
  • TAC headaches are always on one side and the extreme pain can result in people feeling very agitated
  • The hypothalamus is involved in cluster headaches so the headaches can often happen seasonally at the same time of the day

 

BEST MOMENTS

He explains the current research and how in real life spinal flexion can’t be stopped but can be managed with the right strategies to avoid end range motion

This is a fascinating episode for both professional practitioners and individuals who want to understand more about spinal flexion and what getting out of neutral really means

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Neutral alignment is seen as being optimal in sharing the load
  • The research indicates that the spine flexes away from the neutral posture
  • Whilst flexion can’t be stopped there are strategies that can be used to avoid end range motion and lower or increase those values
  • When you perform lifting you are flexing and moving out of neutral
  • We see more flexion occurring at the lower lumbar spine than at the upper lumbar spine
  • When you are lifting the spine is both flexing and being exposed to compressive load
  • Flexion has the potential to result in pathologies of the spine
  • All of the tissues in our bodies can adapt to loading
  • There is potential for managing the position of the spine and affecting injury risk
  • Avoiding end range position and flexion can be important in training
  • Coaching can encourage kinesthetics awareness to help avoid end range positions
  • Programming strategies and the way overload is created in exercise is valuable as an injury risk management tool
  • Years of strength training will bring architectural changes and spinal flexion can put muscles in a better position for lifting

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘The concept of neutral is attractive to practitioners because it puts the spine in a position where the load is spread’

‘It’s a variable that we can manipulate’

‘When they perform the tasks they do it in such a way that they are able to cope with the loads they are exposed to’

A good night’s sleep is the foundation for feeling good and being able to do what you want to do during the day so good sleep is always important

Tracey shares practical tips on what you can do to optimise your sleep so that the sleep you get during the night is ‘a good night’s sleep’ making you feel good and able to do what you need and want to do during the day

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Sleep is very individual; some people require more sleep than others
  • Optimise your sleep by creating the right environment
  • There is no need to try to ‘catch up’ on missed sleep
  • It’s important to keep doing the good things in life to take your attention away from any sleep issues
  • A relaxed approach to sleep is the best way to achieve it
  • An uncluttered room, a comfortable bed, a cooler environment, and a good wind-down routine are the starting points for good sleep
  • Good sleepers can’t tell you how they sleep they just go to bed and sleep well
  • Tracking sleep patterns only gives you information to hang anxiety on so stop clock watching your sleep and ditch the wearables
  • There is not one position that is preferable for sleeping, it’s very individual and depends on several factors
  • Sleep is an emotional process as well as a physical one and it’s not always linear
  • Sometimes we lose our connection or get in the way of it but you can reconnect with your natural ability to sleep it’s something we never lose
  • CBTi gives you a set of skills mental, emotional, and behavioural that you can use for the rest of your life

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘When you stop worrying about sleep it lowers your arousal level and you will experience better sleep’

‘There isn’t a return for trying to get more sleep than you need‘

‘Accepting that you may not sleep well takes the anxiety away’

Having someone explain your scan to you is really important because, as Rob and Dave explain any diagnosis is made from a combining of  the information from your medical history, your physical examination alongside any imaging

There are normal age-related changes that happen to everyone and the skill of the clinician is working out which changes are normal and what may be contributing to or causing your pain, listen in and find out more

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • The diagnosis your clinician makes is based on a combination of your medical history,  a physical examination and this is then combined with your imaging
  • An MRI, X-ray or CT scan can’t see your pain, they are a snapshot of how you look at that point in time
  • Back pain is very common without there being any changes on a scan
  • Interventions can be about modulating and reducing the pain
  • If your scan comes back as normal it doesn’t mean you don’t have pain
  • It’s a win and a great starting block if your scan comes back as normal
  • Normal age-related changes (NARC) happen to everyone and are expected over time
  • If you’ve been told you have a degenerative disc disorder it doesn’t mean your pain will get worse
  • Focusing on incidental findings can mean focusing on the wrong areas, and not achieving the proper outcome
  • Changes happen to everyone with or without pain. It’s working out if the changes are relevant or irrelevant
  • Disc bulges can occur without pain and often it’s the location that’s more important
  • Disc bulges happen very slowly over time and the disc doesn’t have to go back in for the pain to go away
  • A scan is just a snapshot in time to be used alongside other information to discover the likely cause of your pain

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘The job of a good clinician is to describe the changes and explain them to you’

‘A scan is another tool in the arsenal to finally land on the conclusion’

‘There are often words in reports that can make you think the worst when not understood in the right context’

  • Excess stress can be a trigger for pain
  • Stressing or worrying about an injury can cause patients to experience pain
  • There are many ways to relieve stress including walking, meditation, and yoga
  • The fear of doing a certain movement because it’s painful can lead to fear avoidance and worry which can make the pain worse
  • Avoiding a certain movement for a short while can help but graded return to the movement is important in recovery
  • Pain is multifactorial there are many factors that lead to an episode of pain

 

BEST MOMENT

‘Poor sleep equals poor repair’

‘We sleep far better in colder darker rooms’

‘It’s incredibly common for our patients to experience pain around a time of extreme stress’

]]> 717 Sticks and Stones, How Language and Words Can Influence Your Pain https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/089-bpp Communication isn’t just words, it affects the way we think and feel and in this, not to be missed, episode Jarod Hall, physical therapist, and co-author of ‘Making Sense of Pain’ talks with Dave and Rob about the importance of communication and the way it impacts on us all differently according to our personal history, experiences and beliefs He shares great content for clinicians about the ways to explain injuries and symptoms effectively and empathetically, along with great advice for patients about understanding more about their pain and personal journey of recovery.    KEY TAKEAWAYS Human beings are a social species and we communicate both verbally and in other ways When we use language we convey a lot of information Language and the way we speak to people has a huge impact on the way they feel Your physiology can change according to the words being used towards you You should communicate in a way that is helpful, not harmful Your thoughts affect your physiology and what people say to you affects the way your body functions and in turn the way you feel Exposure to painful stimuli and building over time with graded exposure can lessen the pain Clinicians need varied anecdotes to help different patients understand the processes of recovery Everyone is different and every interaction between clinician and patient means each person is bringing their experience and history and expectations to that individual situation It’s about working out the best way to interact with each other in the intersubjective space to achieve the goals Clinicians need to be able to assess when people are ready to hear what they have to say It doesn’t matter how great your stories are if you don’t have an open and respectful dialogue You need to ask permission to share your explanations as a clinician   BEST MOMENTS ‘When we communicate with someone in pain we need to be even more aware of the language we use’ ‘As we age we all get wrinkles on the inside’ ‘His book looks at many of the analogies and stories surrounding pain and how the language used impacts’   THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ    RESOURCES FOR THIS EPISODE Jarod's Book - Making Sense of Pain (Sticks and Stones) https://amzn.to/3JKSjc0 Jarod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/drjarodhalldpt/?hl=en Modern Pain Care https://modernpaincare.com/?doing_wp_cron=1641367942.7520160675048828125000   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Human beings are a social species and we communicate both verbally and in other ways
  • When we use language we convey a lot of information
  • Language and the way we speak to people has a huge impact on the way they feel
  • Your physiology can change according to the words being used towards you
  • You should communicate in a way that is helpful, not harmful
  • Your thoughts affect your physiology and what people say to you affects the way your body functions and in turn the way you feel
  • Exposure to painful stimuli and building over time with graded exposure can lessen the pain
  • Clinicians need varied anecdotes to help different patients understand the processes of recovery
  • Everyone is different and every interaction between clinician and patient means each person is bringing their experience and history and expectations to that individual situation
  • It’s about working out the best way to interact with each other in the intersubjective space to achieve the goals
  • Clinicians need to be able to assess when people are ready to hear what they have to say
  • It doesn’t matter how great your stories are if you don’t have an open and respectful dialogue
  • You need to ask permission to share your explanations as a clinician

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘When we communicate with someone in pain we need to be even more aware of the language we use’

‘As we age we all get wrinkles on the inside’

‘His book looks at many of the analogies and stories surrounding pain and how the language used impacts’

  • There is not a best position to sleep in to avoid back pain long term
  • There is no evidence that adopting a specific position will help to improve back pain
  • A big factor in any recovery is the quality of sleep
  • You don’t often wake up in the same position as when you went to sleep because you move during the night
  • If a position causes you discomfort then changing it for a short period can help
  • A big factor in recovery is good quality sleep
  • It’s all dependant on you and what’s comfortable for you as an individual
  • Clinicians should be helping people to self-manage
  • Your preferences may change over time in the same way your anatomy will change over time
  • If you are thinking about a new mattress try out firm and soft toppers to find what works for you

This is a must-listen with great answers for people with lumbar spinal stenosis   KEY TAKEAWAYS Lumbar spinal stenosis refers to the lower back. The symptoms are defined as being positionally influenced or exertionally influenced Three-quarters of people over the age of forty are expected to have some degree of spinal space narrowing 11% of the population present with these problems but it’s not a sign of the body wearing out Some masquerading problems may not be related to the back at all Walking even with a degree of leg pain is not harmful if it's tolerable Bending the back for therapeutic effect should be encouraged There can be forms of general exercise, sleep and weight management that can help For most people, lumbar spinal stenosis is a long term problem The focus should be on quality of life function and exercise is a good first-line treatment It’s not about trying to change the tunnel narrowing it's about influencing the biology, how things feel and inflammation around the nerve roots. If the pain is acceptable then it’s fine to continue and working with a clinician can help to establish your personal baseline Surgery is often reserved for those with high degrees of disability and those who have already been through physiotherapy, it's rarely essential so preference plays an important role   BEST MOMENTS ‘There will be softer signs for spinal stenosis’ ‘Narrowing doesn’t mean you will have problems’ ‘I’m a big advocate of getting the back bending’ ‘We are trying to make things feel better and improve the condition’   THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ    RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE Spinal Stenosis Booklet  https://www.southtees.nhs.uk/content/uploads/Lumbar-Spinal-Stenosis-Booklet.pdf   South Tees NHS patient information booklets https://www.southtees.nhs.uk/services/back-pain-triage-and-treat/patient-information-educational-resources/   Adams Twitter  https://twitter.com/adamdobson123     ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

Diarmuid explains what the recommendations are and discusses with Rob the vital elements of a collaborative approach and informed decisions along with alternative strategies in the effective treatment of pain where it’s all about starting small and building

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • The NICE guidelines are evidence-based recommendations for health and care
  • The advice is to not initiate a prescription for opioid medication for chronic pain
  • Opioids have a place in the treatment of shorter-term pain and for end of life care
  • It’s about making sure that people who are taking opioids are fully aware of the potential side effects
  • If someone is taking opioids at a low dose and is seeing benefits it’s about a shared care plan and the individual being fully aware of the risks
  • It’s about informed choice and shared decision making with the prescribing professional
  • There are many factors to consider and the conversation with the clinician at the beginning is key in a personalised approach
  • It’s important to consider alternative strategies
  • It’s always a collaborative approach between the patient and the prescribing clinician
  • A range of strategies should be considered around the pain being experienced and what the individual wants to achieve
  • There are factors that influence pain that are beyond your control such as the environment
  • Pain is complex and there are elements we are aware of and many that we are less aware of and have less control over
  • It’s about medication helping with the management and augmentation of pain

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘People expect that because they are called painkillers they will stop the pain but for most it’s a reduction in pain’

It’s not about stopping opioids for everyone

‘It’s starting small and building gradually

This is an episode with great content that you will want to listen to more than once

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Our ability to assess and diagnose specific structures is challenging
  • An injury with an acute phase, followed by easing off of pain and then the development of radicular pain syndrome is a common picture
  • You manipulate the probability based on other factors
  • Your diagnosis can change as you receive more information from the patient and as symptoms change
  • The question is whether sometimes self-management should be augmented
  • There could be another reason why someone has a mechanical restriction in a certain direction other than having a disc pathology
  • I had differential diagnosis’s that were changing in the acute stages with it becoming more certain as time evolved
  • You can’t get the extension back unless you correct the shift
  • Using the mechanism of injury as a treatment is about strengthening those areas through exposure to the forces and stimuli that you will experience
  • Flexion will temporarily reduce the amount of  bulging but if you continue the bulging will increase
  • When discs are hydrated there is a greater risk of herniation
  • Flexion has not been seen consistently to be a causative factor to disc structure deterioration
  • You cannot live a life without flexion and you have to restore it as part of your rehab

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘The evidence shows that on average people are 75% better in 3 to 6 months’

‘You should start flexion when it’s safe to do so’

 ‘Sometimes things need time just to calm down’

‘Sedentariness is a risk for disc deterioration’

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • If exercise for you is very high impact and intense it may be hard to go straight back into it at the same level
  • You may need to break down your exercise activity into smaller steps
  • A gradual increase over time means your body can adapt
  • Break your chosen exercise down into pain-free components and start off small
  • Graded exposure is key
  • If you haven’t exercised for a long length of time then you may need to start back at the beginning
  • Reduce the load on your body through time, range of movement and weight and build back up
  • Graded exposure to stressful stimuli will develop your resilience
  • Physical stimuli is about allowing your body to adapt and grow through increased exposure
  • Increasing mental resilience  about being able to go through the tough times and coming out the other side
  • Engaging in exercise creates an abundance of mental resilience
  • Acute conditions are sudden in onset while chronic is about the duration

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘You may need to take your exercise movement back to basics’

‘Graded exposure will get you there

‘The best exercise for back pain is something you want to do and will enjoy’

They have great information about graded exposure to practise movement and help the back to adapt before you return to the workplace and they also share great tips on how to balance and vary your movement activities when you are at work so that your body can cope successfully with the demands you are making on it

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • If you first experience back pain at work you can associate it with being the cause of the pain
  • The spine is designed to bend and lift
  • Movement avoidance can result in fear around making any movement
  • Short term avoidance can be beneficial for initial relief but it’s vital to get back to movement as soon as possible
  • Bending is unavoidable as a part of everyday life
  • You have to practise movement unloaded before you do the movement  loaded
  • You need to use graded exposure before you return to work or activities – slowly pushing the body and allowing it to adapt to the stresses
  • Work out what the trigger movements are and change your movement to let your body adapt
  • Choose a movement activity from work that you are hesitant about and trial doing it at home before you return to work
  • You need to slowly retrain the body to cope with the demands of work
  • Walking is a good way to start with weight-bearing on the spine

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘Use those joints that’s what they were made for’

‘You should practise movements’

‘It’s training your body to cope with the demands you put on it’

‘Sometimes the fear of movement can lead people to avoid movement’

He discusses the key questions that can help in understanding an individual’s experience of pain and explains how slow and subtle changes to the body are perceived very differently from sudden changes, which can be interpreted as a threat and experienced as pain This is a hugely informative episode that will help anyone understand more about their disc bulge, experience of pain and successful recovery   KEY TAKEAWAYS The pain can have taken over your daily life Having a discussion with your clinician about imaging findings is a key part of the recovery process A clinician may ask about fears, beliefs and understanding around pain to help them understand more A good opening question is ‘what do you think is the cause of your pain?’ Do you believe this pain will ever go away? The conversation and approach with a patient will vary according to how this question is answered Most people walking around have disc bulges, some have no pain some have lots of pain When load is experienced as too quick, too strong, or too often, the brain can interpret this as a threat and pain can be experienced If the stresses are applied gradually the joints and tissues  have the chance to adapt and get stronger   BEST MOMENTS ‘People who have been in pain for a long time may believe it will never go away’ ‘There are many factors that impact on someone’s experience of pain ‘Two MRI scans can look identical but one person is in agony and the other has never suffered from back pain’   THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ     ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

Both hold strong opinions and share great insights into their personal position and why they hold the opinions they do in this insightful and absorbing discussion

Whether you are lifting a box or lifting weights this is a discussion worth listening to before you make up your own mind.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • The research done to date doesn’t really answer the question
  • Very few injuries are the result of a single event, it’s accumulated micro trauma
  • Movement is neurological skill acquisition and rehabilitation is teaching the skill to move efficiently and effectively
  • There are a set of noble principles with variables that can be used to produce a safe lifting technique
  • When we lift we are using we are using our body levers to move load and doing it as efficiently as possible
  • We have bodies that vary and principles need to be applied to the individual, strength is specific and lifting is specific to the task
  • All coaches say they work on best technique according to the individual
  • We can all recognise that we are different and can look at the research and come to different conclusions
  • Lifting is about the hip axis and you need to maximise the torque
  • Get into the position where the hips are in the primary focus
  • When people compare different spine models there is an issue because the biomechanics disagree
  • You have to earn the right to change the position
  • Transference of movement beyond the gym is an important aspect of biomechanical function
  • Strength is a skill and skill comes from practise, perfect practise produces perfect skills that can be transferred into daily life
  • Biomechanical injury is not random, it’s observable, it’s assessable and predictable
  • Physics governs us all
  • You need to learn to move in the best fit pattern for your body

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘This debate has never been settled’

‘There cannot be one lifting position it’s preposterous’

‘Spinal flexion is a beautiful thing

‘That there is only one best lifting position is said by no one’

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Persistent pain can become part of your identity and this is especially true of back pain
  • Everything comes from your back and you think if your back is strong you are strong
  • I was looking for a magic fix because I felt there was something fundamentally wrong
  • As a professional, using movement to explore fears, beliefs and threats means you are in a better position to  create positive new habits with the patient
  • I needed to be in the right place to understand that I needed to work at it to successfully recover
  • It felt like I had a team that made me accountable but also cared and thought I would get better
  • Thinking about it differently and being focused is what got me out of the situation and a shift in my mindset played a huge part in my recovery
  • You can be very low and feel considerable pain but you can come back from it
  • It’s a constellation of experiences and factors that create someone’s pain experience and situation
  • Overly medicalising back pain and giving it strong anatomical connotations makes people more fearful
  • Trying to make sense of backpain through autonomy and structure can change how people behave
  • It’s about how practitioners communicate with patients to understand their pain experience
  • It’s vital to take the time to listen and speak with the patient, taking a therapeutic approach
  • It’s the role of the professional to guide patients to being able to self-manage their pain and their recovery themselves

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘Providing positive explanations can help with looking at things from a different perspective

‘The mental aspect of having a back issue was really difficult to deal with

‘I was doing a lot of nothing because my belief was that my back was weak  because of the pain’

He discusses how it’s possible for fear-avoidance behaviours over an extended period of time can ultimately lead to increased sensitivity and pain and how to break the cycle

Fear-avoidance behaviours are often seen with lower back pain so this is an episode many will resonant with and is packed with great content on how to move forward successfully.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Fear-avoidance behaviour is avoiding a certain movement because it hurts
  • Avoiding a movement because it hurts is part of the body’s protective mechanism
  • It’s natural to think that resting and avoiding the movement will help with recovery but the opposite is true
  • Long-term avoiding the movement can mean you become even more sensitive to the movement and this can result in increased pain
  • You can become trapped in a vicious circle and this is especially common in lower back pain
  • When a movement is avoided for an extended amount of time then the brain can become conditioned to create pain based on thoughts, fears and belief
  • If you haven’t completed a specific movement in a very long time there can be a significant amount of anxiety around making that movement
  • Breaking the cycle of fear-avoidance behaviour is very important as it can lead to anxiety, depression, a decreased quality of life and persistent pain
  • Graded exposure therapy is about slowly exposing someone to something
  • It involves gradually and repeatedly exposing the mind and body to painful stimuli to retrain the brain

  

BEST MOMENTS

‘When a movement hurts, we avoid it and its totally normal’

‘Understanding the movement is normal and that the spine is meant to bend and lift is vital’

‘You need to understand what pain is and that the body can generate pain in response to a perceived threat’

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • An MRI is a fantastic diagnostic tool it’s the reporting or lack of reporting that can be the problem
  • An MRI shows everything that is under the skin and most people will have something that can be blamed for the pain
  • Standardising the regular use of MRI’s can potentially lead to attributing some normal age-related factors with pain and going down the wrong route
  • It’s about the correlation with your other symptoms and looking at the overall picture of presentation
  • It’s important to make sure that information is carefully shared so there is an understanding
  • MRIs are an incredibly important part of the medical diagnostic team but it’s about being careful about how the information is disseminated
  • Therapists know from the assessments they complete what the red flags are and what they are looking for
  • A ‘just in case’ MRI can be confusing because it shows everything
  • With an MRI you must take into account all the other diagnostic information
  • A red flag raises the suspicion that there may be something else going on, but it doesn’t mean there actually is anything to be concerned about
  • If you do self-refer for an MRI, then take the report to your professional

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s the presentation or lack of proper presentation to the patient that is the problem’

‘We know pain is multifactorial’

‘Therapists are really good at knowing what the red flags are’

‘Words and presentation have to be chosen carefully’

Rob and Dave explain the concept of anti-fragility and why it can make the difference for back pain with graded exposure to stressors helping you to develop better adaptation to the unknown stressors we all face each day and brings growth on the other side of stress.

This look at a philosophical concept is a great reminder about the importance of both the mental and physical aspects of recovery.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Improving resilience is about improving your response to stress
  • You need to develop more resilience and become more adaptable
  • You get stronger when you stress your muscles during exercise
  • If resilience is about your ability to resist stressors  and being able to remain the same in response to stress
  • Anti-fragility is the ability to get better in response to stress
  • The daily stressors that we face are unknown so we need to get better at adapting to them
  • Anti-fragility is about growing and getting better through adaptation to stressors
  • It’s about growing on the other side of the stress
  • If responses to stress make us stronger then the opposite is true with a lack of stressors meaning we get weaker
  • Graded exposure to stressors is vital in becoming stronger
  • Your adaptation doesn’t just have to be cellular it can be mental as well
  • Graded exposure to pain through repeated movement can be very helpful
  • The mental model of anti-fragile can be applied across all areas of life
  • It’s about moving better and being able to bounce back better and stronger

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘The back pain podcast is sneaking in some philosophy’

‘The mental side is as important and sometimes more important than the physicality’

Rob discusses posture, manual therapy, MRI’s and whether pain always equals damage along with the language used in the consulting room and the importance of building the right narrative.

He also shares great content and information about the range of tools available for recovery and the importance of building a relationship with the patient.

This is a great listen and anyone listening will learn something new.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • There is a misconception around the role of chiropractors
  • A chiropractor has a myriad of tools at their disposal
  • Your identity is what you do on a regular basis
  • Chiropractors have evolved in what they do
  • You must never ignore the patient narrative
  • Lower back pain is usually multi factual and is rarely done to a single structure
  • Our job as therapists is to encourage the narrative that you are strong and stable
  • It’s vital to build rapport with the patient and you need to have this skill as a therapist.
  • The vast majority of lower back pain is non-specific this doesn’t mean we don’t know  the cause more that we can’t identify the specific structure
  • So many factors influence the brain’s role in pain
  • Addressing back pain has to be a multi factual approach
  • Posture -it’s not the position it’s the lack of movement that causes the problem
  • The problem isn’t with MRI’s is the poor reporting to clients. An MRI is a snapshot of what’s happening at that moment and results should be shared correctly with the patient.
  • Previous beliefs can impact hugely on the journey of recovery

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘We wanted to get the voice of the patients out there’

‘All the tools are very valuable’

‘People who spend time thinking about posture are more likely to suffer from backpain’

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • My stoic attitude helped because it was a routine but battling through and just putting up with the pain was detrimental
  • I’ve been the one who has made all the discoveries because nobody told me anything
  • If you are changing how you think about things you are changing the neural pathways
  • You have to have an open mind and consider everything
  • I discovered my body didn’t move in the way it should do, years of pain had led to overcompensation and I was stuck in a vicious cycle of pain
  • Exercise and movement are two of the most important things for pain
  • My brain said to certain areas of my body don’t move because it will hurt creating internal fear avoidance
  • I’m now tricking my brain to make myself  believe I’m well and healthy  and to calm my central nervous system
  • We are all unique and individual and this is the same with the pain we experience
  • Engaging people around you and helping them to understand will help you
  • Everything matters when it comes to pain because of how it impacts
  • People can get well; it is possible to recover but people need to understand that their pain is their responsibility

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s all been about me being curious and wanting to find out about my body’

‘When people keep telling you there is nothing wrong it makes you want to scream’

‘You have to try things, trial and error is a massive thing’

Hear about red flags and how your clinician is trained to consider what the signs may be indicating whether you should be requesting a scan or surgical referral and what to do if your exercise is causing pain. This is an episode packed with actionable content that is clear and concise helping anyone who is suffering from back pain understand more.   KEY TAKEAWAYS If a particular intervention isn’t harmful and gives you benefit even though the evidence says it doesn’t work you could continue to use it. We started this podcast because we love chatting about backpain and sharing information along with busting some myths.

Whatever your pain experience it’s real and valid and a part of the protective mechanism in place. As humans, we are designed to move and recovery is something our bodies can do so pain does not have to be permanent. Changing your perception of pain and changing your behaviours around pain can all help you to move forward.   KEY TAKEAWAYS That pain is a result of an injury such as tissue damage seems logical but it’s not supported by the science. You can have an injury with no pain and pain with no injury Pain is about protecting you and  relates to the perceived threat by the brain Your back is designed to move and the more you move the better you will feel. Pain nerves do not have specific sensors, they react to everything but are high threshold nerves so when activated it’s a signal that a lot of something is happening The brain has to evaluate what’s going on and decide to output it as a pain experience Any time a pain experience is triggered it’s real and valid but doesn’t always mean what people think it means it’s part of a protective mechanism and doesn’t always mean tissue damage. It’s more than one thing that starts the experience of pain Repeated movement is good for your back and for your mental health You can recover and there is nothing to suggest pain has to be permanent because nerves change how they are wired all the time.   BEST MOMENTS ‘We are not fragile structures and we are designed to move’ ‘It’s about finding the right combination of things to help with the pain’ ‘Pain is an output from the brain’   VALUABLE RESOURCES Flourish Chiropractor The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 2570 Could My Back Pain Be Coming From My Hip? https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/could-my-back-pain-be-coming-from-my-hip Mehmet Gem is a specialist Hip Physiotherapist and in this episode, he discusses Hip Osteoarthritis, Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome (GTPS) common conditions with three different demographics but all of which impact an individual’s ability to complete daily activities and on their daily lives. He also shares why asking the right questions is key and how understanding the detail in a patients history is so important in the process of an accurate diagnosis   KEY TAKEAWAYS Much of the information a patient shares about their issue is communicated verbally but they may also indicate where they are experiencing pain. The hip joint is very unique and can present with groin and buttock pain. As a clinician you need to ask the right questions and understand what you want to know from your patients. The in-depth subjective questions are those which help with better differentiation and understanding of the issue. There is no one test that will give a definitive answer It’s about a combination of questions and understanding the history of the patient in detail. The differences in humans means effective diagnosis needs to be a cluster of approaches. There are no quick fixes and individual hip profiles are very different. Arthritis is one of the most common causes of hip pain in the adult population. It’s a process that can lead to a restricted range of movement and pain around the hip. It has an impact on daily life for those who have it. Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a condition where there is a bony growth on the hip and it can restrict daily activities in the longer term it’s important to get treatment to support hip preservation Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome (GTPS) is a common condition that causes pain in the buttock and thigh area and presents in a very specific demographic.    BEST MOMENTS ‘It can be easy to fall into a pattern of these are the symptoms and these are the tests’ ‘Patients need to empowered and feel confident’ ‘Ultimately life isn’t there to be lived in pain’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Hip Physio The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ Dr Grimaldi’s  Blog for patients https://hippainhelp.com Dr Grimaldi's Blog for Clinician’s https://hippainhelp.com/dr-alison-grimaldi/   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

He also shares why asking the right questions is key and how understanding the detail in a patients history is so important in the process of an accurate diagnosis

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Much of the information a patient shares about their issue is communicated verbally but they may also indicate where they are experiencing pain.
  • The hip joint is very unique and can present with groin and buttock pain.
  • As a clinician you need to ask the right questions and understand what you want to know from your patients.
  • The in-depth subjective questions are those which help with better differentiation and understanding of the issue.
  • There is no one test that will give a definitive answer
  • It’s about a combination of questions and understanding the history of the patient in detail.
  • The differences in humans means effective diagnosis needs to be a cluster of approaches.
  • There are no quick fixes and individual hip profiles are very different.
  • Arthritis is one of the most common causes of hip pain in the adult population.
  • It’s a process that can lead to a restricted range of movement and pain around the hip. It has an impact on daily life for those who have it.
  • Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a condition where there is a bony growth on the hip and it can restrict daily activities in the longer term it’s important to get treatment to support hip preservation
  • Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome (GTPS) is a common condition that causes pain in the buttock and thigh area and presents in a very specific demographic.

  

BEST MOMENTS

‘It can be easy to fall into a pattern of these are the symptoms and these are the tests’

‘Patients need to empowered and feel confident’

‘Ultimately life isn’t there to be lived in pain’

]]> 3354 I Have Sciatica, Could it be Anything Else? https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/i-have-sciatica-could-it-be-anything-else Sciatica is an overarching term for pain down the back of the leg and is not your diagnosis it’s a symptom that will lead you, with your therapist, down the road to a diagnosis. There are lots of things that can cause the pain and it’s important for the clinician to really understand the history and experience of the patient as part of the process of an accurate diagnosis. This episode looks at some of the many conditions that have pain down the back of the leg and why an individual accurate diagnosis based on the evidence is so important for the patient to ensure the best opportunity for recovery.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Sciatica is an umbrella term for pain down the back of the leg A good health care professional will begin by looking in-depth at your history and experience Specific questioning will help to rule out certain conditions and this will be followed by testing There is a therapeutic value in the professional explaining what they are doing when they are doing it. Radiculopathy is a change in function with pins and needles and a burning sensation Meralgia paresthetica is characterized by tingling, numbness and burning pain in the outer part of the thigh and is caused by compression of the nerves. If you have pain in the back of the legs and pain that intensifies when walking it could be peripheral artery disease. Arteries become narrow and the pressure of the blood causes pain. When you stop exercise, it should improve if you have sciatica the pain will be there constantly. The sacroiliac joint can give a similar pain to sciatica but it is quite rare. Referred pain is when the pain you feel in one part of the body is a result of pain in a different area. If you rapidly increase your running exercise regime you may experience specific pain at the top of the hamstring There are many crossover points between different conditions but all of the conditions have pain down the back of the leg in common Professionals should always be evidence-based and accurate so people have the best opportunity to recover.

]]> 3143 Piriformis Syndrome https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/pirifoormis-syndrome Exactly what is piriformis, how is it diagnosed and what you can do about it if you think you have it? All these questions and more are answered by Dr Alison Grimaldi, specialist hip and pelvic pain physiotherapist in this episode that focuses entirely on what piriformis is and how it can be treated. There is lots of confusion about piriformis and the best forms of treatment so this is a great opportunity to understand more about what it is and is not and the best ways to identify the right treatment.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Piriformis is an irritation of the sciatic nerve which usually stems from compression of the nerve as it runs through the buttocks. Piriformis syndrome can be a result of anatomical setup or hypertrophy when the piriformis muscle becomes enlarged through working particularly hard. Signs that you have piriformis syndrome is pain in the mid-buttock area with the pain extending downwards through the leg. Changes in sensory awareness can be an indication of the syndrome Training efficient behaviour of the muscles combined gentle exercise to move the nerve, education and taking away some of the things that are irritating are part of an effective rehabilitation program. Different buttock muscles are affected in different ways by inactivity. A lack of loading on other muscles can change the behaviour of muscles resulting in overactivity by the piriformis muscle. If you are having a cortisol injection combine it with good rehabilitation to make the most of the pain relief and to ensure you have effective strategies in place. Surgery is a last resort option and surgical intervention is releasing the tendon where it joins into the back of the hip so the muscle retracts away from the bone Botox is increasingly being used for piriformis  syndrome For most people, it’s around 3 to 6 months for recovery and there will usually be flare-ups along the way. It’s about re-education of muscle patterns and behaviours. Get a clear diagnosis and pair any injections with good rehabilitation.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Piriformis  syndrome is often diagnosed for any sort of buttock pain’ ‘Cortisol injections can be used as a treatment to give relief although this is usually short term’ ‘Sometimes stretches can be part of the problem, not the solution’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ Dr Grimaldi’s  Blog for patients https://hippainhelp.com Dr Grimaldi's Blog for Clinician’s https://hippainhelp.com/dr-alison-grimaldi/ https://hippainhelp.com/recovering-from-piriformis-syndrome ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 2883 Hips and Spines Don't go out of Place! https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/hips-and-spines-dont-go-out-of-place Many people talk about their hips and spines as being out of alignment, of having ‘slipped out’ and this emotive language has used for some time but this way of describing when something doesn’t feel right can lead to misunderstanding and potentially fear avoidance behaviours. Rob and Dave explain why this language is not only outdated but also incorrect and how manipulation really works along with why it’s about empowering the patient to improve their resilience, have the right information and work in collaboration with their clinician to heal.   KEY TAKEAWAYS When you have pain and your body doesn’t feel right it can feel like something is out of place. Your spinal joints, hip joints and pelvic joints are some of the strongest joints in the body. For these strong joints to be out of place it would take significant trauma on the level of a car crash to cause this. Manipulation, the movement of two joints is equivalent to a mechanical pain killer Manipulation is about creating movement and can be helpful in supporting recovery it’s not about putting something back in place. False beliefs around treatments can lead to fear avoidance behaviour. Clinicians should be empowering the patient to improve their resilience and understand what they can do not what they can’t do.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • When you have pain and your body doesn’t feel right it can feel like something is out of place.
  • Your spinal joints, hip joints and pelvic joints are some of the strongest joints in the body.
  • For these strong joints to be out of place it would take significant trauma on the level of a car crash to cause this.
  • Manipulation, the movement of two joints is equivalent to a mechanical pain killer
  • Manipulation is about creating movement and can be helpful in supporting recovery it’s not about putting something back in place.
  • False beliefs around treatments can lead to fear avoidance behaviour.
  • Clinicians should be empowering the patient to improve their resilience and understand what they can do not what they can’t do.
  • As human beings, we are incredibly resilient.
  • A small change in the language you use can make a big difference

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘We are designed to move and heal ourselves’

‘Many people benefit from manipulation and it’s about movement’

]]> 741 How Changing Your Mindset will Improve Your Pain https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/how-changing-your-mindset-will-improve-your-pain This is a great episode focusing on how the right mindset can make a difference in recovery. What you think and believe about your pain has a huge influence on your potential to recover and a recovery mindset is about managing what you say to yourself, your self-beliefs and updating your education about back pain. If you fully understand what is happening to your body and have a growth mindset you can positively influence your recovery. Look at the bigger picture and understand how to problem solve your way through recovery with a flexible growth mindset if you want to optimise your recovery journey.   KEY TAKEAWAYS You need to fully understand what is happening in your body when you are feeling good when you are feeling pain and what you have the capacity to do. Getting a base level of education is about self-reassurance Fear can be one component of pain-related anxiety Historically people think about their bodies in a mechanistic way but now it would be better to think about the human body as an adaptive and ever-changing biological mechanism You can’t separate the brain from the body it’s all one system and you need to think about things in a more multi-dimensional system. When you move away from ‘it’s one thing’ thinking and look at the bigger picture everything changes. If you have multifactorial back pain you need to be working on all the contributing factors. A fixed mindset is I can’t do that whilst a growth mindset is I can’t do that yet You need to understand the importance of problem-solving your way through recovery Using the 1% approach is about making small changes one at a time that over time make a big change. You should be able to look at things as a combination of approaches. To get into a pain recovery mindset you need to accept that you have pain and where you are starting from.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Update your education so you are empowered and understand the problem’ ‘You need to be flexible in your approach things will go wrong so you have to be prepared to adapt and change’ ‘You need to be optimistic that you can make a recovery’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 2905 Is my Pain From My Sacroiliac Joint? https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/is-my-pain-from-my-sacroiliac-joint Mark Laslett is a specialist physiotherapist who has extensive expertise and experience. He explains what the sacroiliac joint is, its function in the body and the varying ways the joint can become inflamed and a cause of pain. He also shares great content on the treatments that are used and the difference between sacroiliac dysfunction and sacroiliac joint pain. This episode is a great opportunity to understand more about the sacroiliac joint and how it can cause pain.   KEY TAKEAWAYS The sacroiliac joint is in the centre of the body between the bottom of the spine and the big bones associated with your buttocks. Its sacroiliac joint doesn’t have any muscles that move it, the muscles that affect it cause it to clamp together. It’s not primarily a movement joint it’s a joint that allows force to transferred from the limb to the spine with a shock-absorbing function. As you age the ability of the joint to move and absorb shock decreases as a normal part of the ageing process. There is a fundamental difference in the sacroiliac joint between male and female with women having more movement which increases during pregnancy. We don’t know what happens during pregnancy but there can be pain in the sacroiliac joint at this time. In the non-pregnant population, the sacroiliac joint almost never gets sprained except when you experience major trauma. There are certain inflammatory conditions that cause pain in the sacroiliac joint but there are good methods for treating these conditions. There is a difference between sacroiliac joint dysfunction and sacroiliac joint pain. If you have true sacroiliac joint pain then manipulation will not make the pain go away.   BEST MOMENTS ‘There is a role for stabilising exercise’ ‘The sacroiliac joint has nerves and this can be a source of pain’ ‘The diagnosis really matters’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 3164 What is the Best Diet for Recovery? https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/what-is-the-best-diet-for-recovery Ben Steele-Turner is a physiotherapist and associate nutritionist and in this episode discusses what a healthy diet consists of along with the impact of macro-nutrients and micro-nutrients in supporting the essential functions of the body. When a recovery plan and a healthy eating plan are combined recovery is better supported and you are providing your body with the tools it needs to move forwards and Ben shares great content on what makes a healthy diet and why.   KEY TAKEAWAYS If you have a healthy diet then blood flow will be better. It’s about giving the body the tools it needs, are your cells happy, do they have what they need? The building blocks for a healthy diet are - Macro-nutrients – proteins are needed for muscle, bone, haemoglobin and immune cells. Carbohydrates – energy and fuel for cells throughout the day. Dietary fats – for cell activity and hormone activity Micro-nutrients are the vitamins and minerals you need. It’s important to have enough of each micro-nutrient Healthy fats are essential for good health and can be split into saturated and unsaturated fats. Ideally, saturated fats should make up no one than 10% of your diet. Seeds, nuts and avocados are all sources of healthy unsaturated fats An Omega 3 supplement can be taken if you are eating less than the required amount of fruit and vegetables With chronic conditions moving to a more plant-based diet is important in conjunction with the avoidance of highly processed foods.   BEST MOMENTS ‘For your general health sugar intake should be limited’ ‘It’s about everything being in harmony’ ‘When you have exercise help and also have help with healthy eating you are in a better position to self-manage’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Physiutrition Instagram   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 2409 Long Covid - Dr Deepak Ravindran https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/long-covid-dr-deepak-ravindran Long Covid is a term that’s been adopted by those who have been struggling with a variety of symptoms having had an accurate Covid episode and is currently estimated to be experienced by 10% of the population. Dr Deepak Ravindran explains what Long Covid is, the ways it is being treated and the preventative measures that can be taken. Calming and supporting the immune system means re-evaluating your diet and assessing your levels of well-being to bring balance and in this episode packed with content you can find out how to get started.   KEY TAKEAWAYS People can suffer from fluctuating symptoms and fatigue is a common presentation. In the short term (3-6months) respiratory symptoms, cardiac symptoms, neurological symptoms and ENT symptoms are seen. Beyond this period fatigue, pain and psychical issues become dominant. There is a hyperactivity of the immune system and that activation seems to be something the body can’t control. On most occasions, the immune system achieves an equilibrium. There are a group of people whose immune systems don’t achieve the balance it stays overactive. Health in-equalities do seem to play a role along with social in-equalities in long Covid Currently, it’s estimated that 10% of the population are at risk of long Covid Preventative measures include good hydration, adequate levels of vitamin D and including zinc and selenium in your diet. Evaluating your diet and assessing your levels of well-being are proactive steps that can be implemented. Sleep and physical activity along with mindful activities all support the immune system and calming it down.   BEST MOMENTS ‘It is the exuberant immune system and the chemicals that it releases that are likely to cause damage’ ‘Calming and reinforcing our immune systems is key’ ‘You can bring a level of balance to your immune system through the actions and activities you undertake’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Dr Deepak Ravindran Twitter This is the powerful approach of The Pain-Free Mindset, where NHS pain consultant Dr Ravindran brings his 20 years of experience to offer you an effective set of techniques that will help you take back control and overcome your pain - https://amzn.to/2Zfp239 Book an appointment  to see Dr Deepak Ravindran  https://www.berkshirepainclinic.co.uk/dr-deepak-ravindran.html https://getbetteronline.co.uk/experts/dr-deepak-ravindran/ ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 3822 How to Get the Most from Your Back Pain Consultation https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/how-to-get-the-most-from-your-back-pain-consultati In this episode, Rob discusses and provides great advice on what you need to do to get the best from your consultation. You need to look for a clinician or therapist who has a skill set that includes an active approach to care, someone who will tell you what you can do to get better and foster self-management, not resilience. Rob shares key information that anyone attending a consultation can implement to make the experience productive and informative. If you have back pain and are unsure about who you should see and what you should expect and ask in the consultation then this is the episode for you.   KEY TAKEAWAYS People who do manual therapy should be making it clear it is a symptomatic relief approach Seek someone who doesn’t undertake imaging as standard for lower back pain. Only a small percentage of people will require imaging and the disadvantages of imaging far outweigh the advantages. Look for someone who encourages self-management not resilience on them The working diagnosis is formed from the information the patient shares about pain and how they are managing. Your family medical history may be explored. You need to be able to explain what the pain is stopping you from doing along with what you want to be able to do. Before undertaking any treatment, you should be asking ’what are the benefits? What are the risks? What are the alternatives? and what will happen if I do nothing? Also, ask about the time frame and the expectations what do they think the outcomes will be for you. Be clear about the plan of action, the prognosis, any lifestyle changes you may need to make and the exercises you will need to undertake.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Make sure they understand what you want to be able to get back to doing’ ‘Any therapist should be fostering self-management’ ‘Make sure they understand what you want to be able to get back to doing’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

Rob and Dave share great content on the effects of ice and heat for differing back injuries and explain why people can use a combination along with the importance of early movement to aid positive recovery.

]]> 1852 Back Pain During Pregnancy 2.0 https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/back-pain-during-pregnancy-2-0 In this episode Physiotherapist and pelvic health specialist, Sarah Fellows talks about all things pregnancy, pelvic pain and back pain. She discusses the types of pain that may be experienced and one of the biggest drivers for back pain during pregnancy – fear. Training for motherhood is essential and this is a great opportunity to hear about the various factors that impact on back pain during pregnancy and what you can proactively do.   KEY TAKEAWAYS One of the biggest drivers for back pain during pregnancy is fear. Back pain will get better during pregnancy if it is treated well. During pregnancy, there are biomechanical changes with an increasing frontal load. This makes pregnant women more at risk of falling in later pregnancy. Making sure your body is able to move into and out of neutral postures is important. The more babies you have the more likely you are to experience back pain. There are a variety of factors that can contribute to back pain in subsequent pregnancies including nutrition, fear and insufficient rehabilitation from prior pregnancies transfer of load is not so efficient. There are many drivers to pain so a health professional needs to take a detailed history If you have had a traumatic birth then it’s important to take the time to talk to someone and  process it. Make good use of the time after the birth from birth to twelve weeks to process and recover from what’s happened to your body. In pregnancy, structures can become more sensitised causing pain. If you experience transient pain or a decline in function then seek help from a physiotherapist. If you are stressed your breathing is altered and this will affect your pelvic floor. It’s a myth that you shouldn’t exercise when pregnant if you are healthy.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Posture is not an indicator for back pain’ ‘We function on our feet so working out how to move better is key’ ‘It’s important to be as active as you can, the more active you are the better it is for your baby’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Active Pregnancy Foundation Sarah Fellows Instagram   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 3064 All About Spinal Stenosis https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/all-about-spinal-stenosis Rob and Dave talk Mr Alexander Montgomery, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon about Spinal Stenosis, a common condition responsible for much back, neck and arm pain. They discuss what Spinal Stenosis is the symptoms that are experienced and hoe you can have it with no symptoms at all along with the various treatments and surgical options available. Understanding what spinal stenosis is and what the best treatments are will ensure you know what to look for and how to seek the most effective treatment.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the spinal canal where there are nerves. You can go for an extended amount of time with some compression and no symptoms and then an incident, such as a fall, can be the tipping point for more severe inflammation The most common areas are the lower lumber and half way up your neck The narrowing of the spine canal and degeneration is connected with aging. It vital to build strength and mobility as you get older Spinal stenosis can cause weakness and you may get Corda Equina symptoms. Symptoms of numbness around the groin area or loss of control need immediate treatment to relieve the pressure. Go to a hospital where there are spinal surgeons to avoid time wasted being transferred from a smaller hospital. For mild to moderate symptoms movement rehabilitation that offloads the pressure from the specific points will work. A steroid injection is an option but its effectiveness is dependent on the position of the narrowing. The size of the compression doesn’t necessarily match the level of pain. Most people don’t require surgery other treatments are successful. Any nerve compression relief usually has positive outcomes Surgery is very successful at relieving pain   BEST MOMENTS ‘Any nerve compression relief usually has positive outcomes’ ‘The steroid injection is there to break the cycle to enable movement rehabilitation to take place’ ‘When you have pain, you make adaptations to cope with it’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Mr Alexander Montgomary link https://www.schoen-clinic.co.uk/alex-montgomery   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

In this informative episode, Rob Tyer physiotherapist talks about everything cauda equina and explains what it is, the symptoms to be aware of and why if you have cauda equina treatment is time sensitive.

You can have symptoms of cauda equina or radiographic cauda equina, in order to have cauda equine syndrome  you have to have a combination of the two The symptoms are very varied but can be any changes in the function to the bladder usually in conjunction with changes in bowel movement. Numbness between the legs can also be a symptom along with sexual dysfunction. If you have symptoms you need to seek emergency care. You will need to provide a history and there will be an examination and possibly a scan. If you have cauda equine syndrome surgery is usually offered because of the time sensitivity.

]]> 2052 Should I See A Chiropractor, Physiotherapist Or An Osteopath? - with Mike James https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/should-i-see-a-chiropractor-physiotherapist-or-an In this week's show, Dave and Rob welcome physiotherapist, Mike James - AKA The Endurance Physio - to the show to discuss the enduring topic of what the differences are between a chiropractor, a physiotherapist, and an osteopath, and how to decide upon which might be the best for you? KEY TAKEAWAYS All therapists and practitioners in the MSK realm offer something unique in terms of treatment, and so all should be considered for their own contribution. When looking for a therapist, we must search for the traits of a good one. These traits usually come down to how they communicate with you. A good therapist will always try to establish a good relationship with the client. The patient must remain at the core of every treatment. Good therapists will seek to collaborate with the patient in order to facilitate the path to the destination required. Research is everything. Look for good clinics, but also for good therapists within those clinics. Do not be afraid to raise questions. BEST MOMENTS 'Ultimately they all offer something to patients in the MSK realm' 'People have taken many journeys and paths to get to the same place' 'The patient must be at the centre of the process' 'It doesn't matter about the therapist's background - it's the person and the way they work' VALUABLE RESOURCES Mike James Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/TheendurancePT The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 929 Why Do My Knees Hurt - Claire Robertson https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/why-do-my-knees-hurt-claire-robertson People with back pain may also have other problems and in this episode hear all about knee pain, what the causes are and what you can do about it with expert Claire Robertson. Claire specialises in Patellofemoral pain syndrome and shares great information about what is actually happening in your knee and some great analogies that mean it’s easy to understand how the causes can be different for different people. It’s usually not about a specific event or injury but about a gradual change over time. Claire also explains how to be proactive in choosing the right exercise and movement so that you can build the strength that will make the difference.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Patellofemoral pain syndrome is an umbrella term used about the pain caused when the knee cap rests on the bottom of the femur. It can happen at all different ages for a range of different reasons It can be a vague pain that is aggravated by walking upstairs or an incline. Often it’s about highpoints of pressure rather than damage. It’s about looking at changes that may have affected the load and movement pattern of the knee. Calf tightness can a contributing factor and taking the time to stretch out muscles before walking can make a difference and building up the strength in the quadriceps can help. Treatment is very multifactual depending on the drivers. It’s important to get an accurate assessment and use this as a basis for treatment. If injections are used it creates a window of opportunity to build strength for the long term. It’s about making sure you are doing the right exercise and movement in the right way. Knees are strong and designed to facilitate movement but if you have any pain you should get it checked.   BEST MOMENTS ‘A change in lifestyle can be a factor’ ‘The cause can be different for different people’ ‘Normal knees crack and crunch during movement’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link https://clairepatella.com

]]> 1954 Call in The Chiropractors https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/call-in-the-chiropractors In this special New Year’s edition of the podcast, Rob and Dave are joined by Tom white from Salford city chiropractic and Ricky Davis from Summit well-being in London. They discuss some of the cases in clinic this week sharing great insights into their initial consultation process and how this lays the foundation for collaborative work between the therapist and patient on the journey to recovery. It’s always about the formulation of a tailored approach that’s right for each patient that supports their physical and mental wellbeing as they make incremental steps towards their final goal.   KEY TAKEAWAYS When someone has pain and stops doing things then the body can get used to not moving You can use the examination to help patients to see what they can do. Even if you can’t do your chosen activity now you can move towards it. It’s all about the small wins and incremental progress towards your final goal. The definition of health and well-being is the physical, mental and social wellbeing of an individual. Even when you are in pain it’s about finding what movement you can do in the right way whilst the pain and injury heals to get you back to where you want to be. The goal of a therapist is to find things you can do that will develop strength and resilience People are good at self-healing but a therapist can offer expert advice and expertise. The first consultation session is about education, discussing what’s going on and that pain isn’t something to be feared. If you are having a consultation ask as many questions as you need. Know and understand exactly what the plan is It’s about a tailored approach that’s right for each patient. It’s a collaborative approach between the therapist and the patient.   BEST MOMENTS ‘To go from having back pain for 5 years to having a pain free walk in 6 weeks is very positive’ ‘It’s meeting the patients and managing  their thoughts, fears and expectations’ ‘Movement is what is going to help’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 335 Andy Dobinson - A Stroke of Good Luck https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/andy-dobinson-a-stroke-of-good-luck Andy Dobinson had a significant and completely unexpected stroke in 2017. His stroke was cryptogenic, meaning the professionals didn’t know why it happened but in this episode, Andy explains not only the event but also his recovery and why he now can say it was the best thing that happened to him. His stroke was a life-changing event for someone who thought they were too young to have a stroke and his recovery changed his perspective building a mindset that is all about the experience, adventure, appreciation and always celebrating the small wins.   KEY TAKEAWAYS I had a cryptogenic stroke, meaning they didn’t know why it had happened. In my mind, I was too young for a stroke and I was fit and healthy. Following a stroke, you have to decide to not be a victim and get on with it. My initial goals in my phase 1 recovery were small and incremental. Phase 2 was about getting better and included hydrotherapy and counselling with my focus on getting back to normal. I had to forge new pathways because part of my brain had died. There is fear, anxiety and depression that has to be overcome during recovery. Breaking everything down into small goals and celebrating the little wins is the way to move forward towards bigger goals. The stroke has made me a more rounded human being Its made me appreciate people and things more. If you have a stroke you just have to go with it and see where it takes you. After a stroke, there is a different future for you so you need to go with it.   BEST MOMENTS ‘In my mind, I thought young people don’t get strokes’ ‘You have to celebrate the small wins’ ‘I was used to working and training hard so it was a case of applying that mindset in a different way’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Andy Instagram @andy_stroke_of_luck   NHS signs of stroke https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/stroke/symptoms/   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 4423 Chronic Pain, CBT, Stoicism and Marcus Aurelius https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/033-tbpp Donald Robertson is a Cognitive Behavioural psychotherapist and author of ‘How to Think Like a Roman Emperor and ‘Stoicism and the Art of Happiness’ He explains the origins of stoicism and its importance as a philosophy in the world today supporting emotional resilience. As a hugely experienced and knowledgeable CBT psychotherapist Donald also explores cognitive theory and the separation of the emotional response and the physical experience of pain for those who suffer from chronic pain. This is an all-absorbing and fascinating insight into both stoicism and CBT and that has something for everyone who wants to understand more about the ways to take a problem-solving approach to their chronic pain.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Cognitive theory is all about the ways our values and beliefs shape our responses. if you can take greater responsibility and ownership for the things you can control then you will be more adaptive and healthier. The language used to describe emotions is very simplistic and this can prevent us from distinguishing between different elements of chronic pain. Thoughts and feelings are intertwined and when you are able to articulate your underlying beliefs and patterns of thinking you are able to begin to ask yourself is this actually true? When you recognise that feelings are thoughts something magical happens that means you can access a huge range of cognitive protocols. If you are focusing on and thinking about a particular pain it can seem amplified For those individuals who believe and are aligned with stoicism, it  can offer clients something that CBT or any other type of psychotherapy can’t ever offer them Stoicism can offer something far bigger and far more radical to the individual, a philosophy for life. CBT is diagnosis-specific whilst stoicism approaches things in a more a generic way. In psychology, there is a distinction made between emotional coping and practical problem solving coping. You can either deal with the external problem or how you are responding to it. If you have to live with pain then you may as well learn to live with it wisely. Separating the emotional response is key in being able to problem-solve to cope with pain.   BEST MOMENTS ‘When talking to yourself about your pain being as objective and factual as possible is beneficial’ ‘Stoicism is a philosophy but CBT is a therapy’ ‘It’s amazing that this was thought about 2000 years ago and is being used now’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Donald website https://donaldrobertson.name Donald’s Courses https://learn.donaldrobertson.name All Donald’s Publications https://learn.donaldrobertson.name/p/publications/ HOW TO THINK LIKE A ROMAN EMPEROR https://amzn.to/33k0Cbm Stoicism and the Art of Happiness https://amzn.to/3nXmSzA

]]> 5156 Core Stability & Other Myths https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/core-stability-other-myths Dave talks to Greg Lehman, Physiotherapist, Chiropractor and Strength and Conditioning Specialist about core stability and the movement that matters in this episode. They discuss what your core actually is and how you can optimise your exercise and movement patterns to maximise the outcomes that are the best for you Greg also shares great information about our, often hidden, 6 packs the different ways in which we exercise them and how everyone has a good core. This is a great chance to understand more about core stability, being human and movement that you enjoy.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Your core usually defined as your torso and hips and has many muscles. Exercise has multiple effects and exercise for lower back pain can be helpful but does not have to be very specific exercise. Pain doesn’t always mean you should stop movement but you need to move in a way that is best for you. We should move faultlessly and fearlessly; you shouldn’t have to think you should be able to trust your body. Pain is not just mechanical its influenced by many other factors such as fear and worry There isn’t a relationship between someone’s posture and them having back pain There are joints in your body that enable you to move in different ways so its important that you do just that. You can set yourself ‘goal’ exercises that you want to work towards. Exercise is important especially as we age for bone density and loss of muscle mass For returns on time and energy chose exercise that you enjoy doing so you keep doing it. It’s more about being a human and movement that you enjoy doing.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Do whatever makes you  feel better because moving in as many different ways as possible will give you more options’ Most people have a 6 pack, you just can’t see it on everyone’ ‘You should be able to move without thought’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link OA Optimism website Movement Optimism website Greg Lehman Twitter   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 2583 Do I Need an MRI for My Back Pain? https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/031-bpp Dave and Rob are with physiotherapist Adam Dobson discussing scans and in particular how MRI scans can and are used in connection with back pain. Scans are important but only for a small number of patients with back pain and Adam explains in detail the pathway and context that may lead to a scan being done along with reasons why a detailed clinical diagnosis is so important in this episode packed with great information and content. Its ultimately about the right scan at the right time and this is a great opportunity to find out more.   KEY TAKEAWAYS 90% of back problems are not diagnosable on a scan and a scan will only be important for a small number of patients with back-related problems. Scans can be used to rule something out such as a fracture, cancer or an infection and may open up a change of treatment plan. If there is a good quality working diagnosis then imaging can create a potential additional step before treatment begins. Patients should know what a scan is likely to show, the implications of the findings and what it might change. Scans are highly detailed and show lots of things that may not be relevant and are common in lots of the population. These things are not predictors for pain or function in the future. Patients should be prepared and educated to help them understand imaging. If you’ve had a problem for less than 6 weeks, the nerves are working and there are no indicators for serious pathology there is a high chance your problem will resolve itself over time. It’s about the right scan for the right person at the right time The picture can change - If you are told you don’t need a scan it doesn’t mean you will never need one. If you have persistent and disabling pain there is something wrong but it can be about the factors involved and where best to focus effort with therapy and support powerful options.   BEST MOMENTS ‘If it’s is unlikely to change the treatment plan and there is no evidence for serious pathology then there is a strong argument that imaging is not required’ ‘An MRI scan can be used as a reassurance about what’s not there’ ‘In collaborative working with the patient imaging is a malleable decision’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Adam Twitter https://twitter.com/adamdobson123 What is sciatica booklet https://www.southtees.nhs.uk/content/uploads/ST1112-Sciatica-Booklet.pdf Handy information guides on back pain, sciatica, Cauda Equina, posture and more. https://www.southtees.nhs.uk/services/back-pain-triage-and-treat/patient-information-educational-resources/ Brinjikji W, Luetmer PH, Comstock B, et al.

If you’ve had a problem for less than 6 weeks, the nerves are working and there are no indicators for serious pathology there is a high chance your problem will resolve itself over time. It’s about the right scan for the right person at the right time The picture can change - If you are told you don’t need a scan it doesn’t mean you will never need one.

Scans are important but only for a small number of patients with back pain and Adam explains in detail the pathway and context that may lead to a scan being done along with reasons why a detailed clinical diagnosis is so important in this episode packed with great information and content.

Its ultimately about the right scan at the right time and this is a great opportunity to find out more.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • 90% of back problems are not diagnosable on a scan and a scan will only be important for a small number of patients with back-related problems.
  • Scans can be used to rule something out such as a fracture, cancer or an infection and may open up a change of treatment plan.
  • If there is a good quality working diagnosis then imaging can create a potential additional step before treatment begins.
  • Patients should know what a scan is likely to show, the implications of the findings and what it might change.
  • Scans are highly detailed and show lots of things that may not be relevant and are common in lots of the population. These things are not predictors for pain or function in the future.
  • Patients should be prepared and educated to help them understand imaging.
  • If you’ve had a problem for less than 6 weeks, the nerves are working and there are no indicators for serious pathology there is a high chance your problem will resolve itself over time.
  • It’s about the right scan for the right person at the right time
  • The picture can change - If you are told you don’t need a scan it doesn’t mean you will never need one.
  • If you have persistent and disabling pain there is something wrong but it can be about the factors involved and where best to focus effort with therapy and support powerful options.

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘If it’s is unlikely to change the treatment plan and there is no evidence for serious pathology then there is a strong argument that imaging is not required’

‘An MRI scan can be used as a reassurance about what’s not there’

‘In collaborative working with the patient imaging is a malleable decision’

]]> 1162 Discs Don’t Slip! https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/029-bpp David Poulter is a physical therapist working out of Minnesota in the United States and shares great information about how dynamic our interbody joints, our discs, are effectively adapting to movement and load. He explains how discs are structured and work with the interbody joint getting its nutrition from loading and compression. With his extensive expertise and experience, David provides an in-depth and comprehensive explanation of both the construction and function of these interbody joints and shares why the truth is that discs don’t slip.   KEY TAKEAWAYS The disc is the joint between 2 vertebrae. Where one vertebra joins another there are complicated structures. It’s the bulging of the material in the disc that causes people to think its slipping. The outer aspect of the disc conveys information about motion, position and space. In the centre of the disc, there are no nerves because it’s all about compression but there are pain structures on the outer layers of the disc structure. Injury can be caused by doing something too quickly or doing something for too long. Treatment should be based on the patient and their individual history. After an injury in rehab, you need to make sure you don’t back to something for too long, too strong or too quickly. Rehab should follow the process of unloading,  temporary rest then progressive loading to return people to where they were before. Sitting, standing, bending are all normal and taking yourself away from your normal is more likely to result in harm to your discs. Discs are developing and dynamic as we grow and if you do something long and often and the disc will adapt.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Symptoms are a warning system to tell us to change what we are doing’ ‘These are just joints and they need to be returned to graded function’ ‘A disc gets its nutrition from movement and loading’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Retlouping twitter   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 2812 Ice or Heat Which One Should I Use? https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/027-tbpp Rob and Dave discuss one of the questions they are asked the most ‘I’ve got back pain should I use ice or heat? There’s lots of conflicting information out there but the answer is it doesn’t matter, neither will cause you any harm it’s all about working out which one is best for you and will provide the relief you are looking for from your back pain. Rob and Dave explain how often you should apply relief treatment in this reassuring episode that explains exactly how heat and ice work and why it’s all about working out which one is the one that works for you.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Whatever makes you feel better is the treatment to continue to use and if it stops providing relief then try the other. You should be trying either ice or heat to test it, moving about and continuing to use the relief treatment that is best for you. If someone is suffering with severe pain and cannot move the recommendation could be for ice first. Ice can help to numb pain and relieve sciatica if you apply it directly to the area. The relief treatment can be repeated for 10-15 minutes up to every hour whether its heat or ice. Topical heat from products can work but they will not have as much impact as ice and heat. Reusable ice and heat packs can be helpful when you are at work or away from your home.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Try ice and if it doesn’t help then try heat’ ‘Each to their own it’s about whatever works for them’ ‘You can interchange between ice and heat if it works for you’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

Where there is pain there is inflamed tissue that is reacting and changing and you should be looking to find what is the best healing process for you. This a great opportunity to hear the best takeaways from a range of great professionals who have been guests on the podcast and shared great practical advice.   KEY TAKEAWAYS When there is pain in the back this is inflamed tissue that is reacting and changing in the same way as other tissues in your body. Even when the source of the irritation has been removed the tissue will continue to be inflamed and will take some time to settle down and reset. Work on stability and mobility to create the strongest back possible. You need to strengthen and work on movement in a controlled environment. It’s part of being human having to pick things up and you can practice a movement to develop strength. We rest, de-load then build movement back up again. Movement is key and a positive mindset will make a difference. Muscles need movement and bones and discs need loads. If something doesn’t work it just means you need a different approach and a different professional. Patients who are proactive in their recovery always recover better than those who are not.

]]> 2441 Avoiding Training Injuries & Myth Busting With The Endurance Physio https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/avoiding-training-injuries-myth-busting-with-the-e The Endurance Physio, Mike James joins Dave and Rob to look at how to avoid injury, train successfully for the events you want to take part in and share some myth-busting in this fascinating episode. Mike explains how anyone can train for and take part in endurance events if they understand how to be consistent and what their starting point is. He discusses the most common types of injuries and why it’s vital to put in the preparation and perfect each step of training consistently before reaching for the marginal gains along with great advice on exercises that will make the difference   KEY TAKEAWAYS You can be either a robust or fragile athlete. Those who are fragile athletes just need to be more consistent. People pick up the most injuries because they attempt to nail marginal gains before they have perfected the first 95% In endurance athletes 75% -85% of injuries will be lower limb, soft tissue non-traumatic and overuse, the other 25% will be traumatic, upper body associated with falls. With tissue it’s not the load, it’s the load you are not prepared for. People sometimes pick up injuries through doing something different. With endurance sport, any treatment will be about preparing for load. Sometimes you need to stop but it is usually about modifying the movement. Having a wide range of activities will benefit backpain. Every patient I see can go on and self-manage. Changing too quickly can cause overload for endurance athletes. Most problems with endurance athletes come from being too keen, to eager and naïve. Coaches can make a difference if you get a good coach with the right program for you. Cardio is king but the secret is the timing of training across the year. It’s about creating stability, robustness and different load through the tissues You can only benefit from the training you are resting from and you can improve recovery by making sure the training is of the right intensity.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Most people get injured through simple errors and lack of consistency’ ‘People try to accelerate through their apprenticeships’ ‘Endurance athletes have poor beliefs about it all being about the amount of time and miles they do in training’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link  Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/TheendurancePT Twitter - https://twitter.com/theEndurancePT https://www.instagram.com/the_endurance_physio/?hl=en     ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 4161 What Should I Do When my Back Spasms? https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/024-bpp If you have regular back spasms what should you do? This is frequently asked in clinic and in this episode, Rob and Dave explain what you should do and why initiating small movements that can be adapted through increased load and repetition are the key to improve your range of movement. Pain or hurt doesn’t equal harm and it’s important to listen to your body and remember that the spine and body are designed to move so having a full range of movement and maintaining it is key for the human body. This episode includes some great advice on movements you can make that will make all the difference.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Someone who is in a back spasm with 10/10 pain and not able to walk should try to make small movements and increase them. It’s about initiating a movement that uses something else, such as the wall or the bed to take your weight and increasing the movement repetition by repetition. Just because you experience discomfort it doesn’t mean you should stop. Approach the point of pain, back off and you will find you will be able to achieve more with each movement. Little rotations and movements will make a difference. With gentle movement and motion, it’s not about a set number of repetitions, it’s about moving little and often If you undertake a movement that makes your body feel like it’s about to spasm you need to undertake a similar movement that puts the spine in a similar position without the load and potential threat. Pain or hurt doesn’t equal harm. The spine and body are meant to move so having the full range of movement is very important. Maintaining an active range of motion is vital.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Listen to your body it will tell you when it’s too much’ ‘The first repetitions will be sore but they will become easier’ ‘Gently, gently along with little and often’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

This is frequently asked in clinic and in this episode, Rob and Dave explain what you should do and why initiating small movements that can be adapted through increased load and repetition are the key to improve your range of movement. Pain or hurt doesn’t equal harm and it’s important to listen to your body and remember that the spine and body are designed to move so having a full range of movement and maintaining it is key for the human body. This episode includes some great advice on movements you can make that will make all the difference.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Someone who is in a back spasm with 10/10 pain and not able to walk should try to make small movements and increase them. It’s about initiating a movement that uses something else, such as the wall or the bed to take your weight and increasing the movement repetition by repetition. Just because you experience discomfort it doesn’t mean you should stop. Approach the point of pain, back off and you will find you will be able to achieve more with each movement. Little rotations and movements will make a difference. With gentle movement and motion, it’s not about a set number of repetitions, it’s about moving little and often If you undertake a movement that makes your body feel like it’s about to spasm you need to undertake a similar movement that puts the spine in a similar position without the load and potential threat. Pain or hurt doesn’t equal harm. The spine and body are meant to move so having the full range of movement is very important.

]]> 1506 When Should I Push Through Pain?! https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/when-should-i-push-through-pain When you experience pain during any activity you will question whether you should push through the pain or stop and in this episode, Rob and Dave share great advice on how to return to activities or exercise safely. People’s pain threshold is subjective and movement is an important part of the journey to recovery but it’s about starting back in the right way and understanding when you are experiencing increased pain. This episode is a great opportunity to learn more about when and how you can get back to the activities you love.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Depending on your pain threshold you should never continue to exercise if the movement is causing increased pain. You have to be aware of the 24hour pain response. If you can still function and the pain is manageable then exercising could continue. Any indications of nerve pain will mean a reduction in activity. Everything is relative to your normal level of activity. If you are returning to sport or exercise it’s about building back up to previous levels. If you can’t run then do hill walking or have a plan to alternate between running and walking to begin the process and then build on this. Begin with a decrease in the load on the body either through time, physical weight or number of repetitions. Building resilience will increase your threshold. Rest is relative, when you are told to rest it’s about taking a rest from the aggravating activity, you should still be maintaining movement. Early movement is very important in the journey to recovery.   BEST MOMENTS ‘You have to return to any activity with common sense’ ‘Activities such as gardening are weighted lower force and this is undertaken over a longer time so take regular breaks’ ‘If you practice you can increase your tolerance and decrease the potential for problems in the future’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 1210 Sleep Hacks for Back Pain + Sciatica https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/sleep-hacks-for-back-pain-sciatica How can you get a decent night’s sleep when you have back pain or sciatica? Dave and Rob provide some great tips and hacks to help anyone with back pain get through the night. Any pain, including back pain and sciatica, can seem much worse at night when there is nothing else to focus on but there are things you can do and the easily followed advice in this episode will help you to achieve better sleep and good quality sleep always means better recovery.   KEY TAKEAWAYS If you are a side sleeper placing a pillow between your legs stops rotation of the spine. If you are a back sleeper place a pillow under your knees creating a bend and altering the angle of the spine. A long pregnancy pillow can help you to elevate and change your leg angle often relieving sciatica pain. Using a mindfulness and meditation app, like Headspace can help you to take your mind off the pain. If there is an activity you do that alleviates pain, complete it just before going to bed. Sometimes moving around in the night and then returning to bed can help you sleep. Don’t forget about pain killers – you can take them when you wake at night and there are painkillers available to take at night. The more good quality sleep you can get the better your recovery will be.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Sometimes that little mindfulness nudge can take your mind off the pain’ ‘Often pain can seem worse at night because you have nothing else to focus on’ ‘Don’t go to bed in a heightened pain state’   VALUABLE RESOURCES Link to video here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fj_RvcrMd8w The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Headspace App Pregnancy Pillow   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 1085 Assessment, Pain Pattern Recognition and Specific Intervention with Prof. Stuart McGill https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/assessment-pain-pattern-recognition-and-specific-i Rob and Dave are with Prof. Stuart McGill a world-leading expert in spine and back pain. He takes a different approach to other clinicians and through assessment and identifications of patterns is able to test very specifically to identify the problem. People often think that back pain is something you have to live with but in this episode, Prof. McGill discusses why a detailed assessment and understanding lifestyle and the pain patterns is key in being able to make a precise diagnosis and create hacks that make the difference. This is a fascinating and detailed insight into how Professor McGill works and why it’s so successful, with great content and value helping anyone to understand more about their backpain and the positive ways forward.   KEY TAKEAWAYS The primary cause of back pain is a stress concentration that exceeds the tolerance of that particular area. People create stress concentration by the repetitions of activities that they complete. If you have no load and no stress your body doesn’t thrive, you need an optimal amount of loading and stress but you cannot cross the tipping point We create a very precise understanding of the problem and then look to build hacks to get around the issue. We stop using the problem area to desensitise it then work to build it up to meet the required demand. The spine is a flexible rod but when we carry load on it the demand changes and its necessary to use the support of the three-dimensional muscle girdle. There are different layers of stability and there is always an appropriate stability for what you are doing. The key is to coach the client to achieve sub-clinical symptoms.

]]> 4563 The Best Life Hacks for Back Pain https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/the-best-life-hacks-for-back-pain In this episode, Rob and Dave are with Tom White, Chiropractor and they are sharing the best hacks that can be used on a regular basis for back pain. These tips and tricks can be incorporated into your daily routine to help with the daily activities and routines that everyone has to complete. These life hacks for back pain will help you to manage the pain and are the recommendations that Rob, Dave and Thom share most often with their own patients.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Using a bin bag on your car seat allows you to pivot on the car seat, means there is less friction on your lower back. Using a 90-degree angle when getting up from the bed will help alleviate back pain. Getting in early movement and steps will reduce stiffness and early morning back pain. When you are playing golf check what’s in your bag before you begin playing and only take what you actually need.

]]> 367 Strength Coach for Arsenal - Dominic May https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/strength-coach-for-arsenal-dominic-may In this episode, Rob and Dave are talking about back pain and strength with Dominic May, a strength and conditioning coach who has worked with sportspeople around the world and is currently best known as the Arsenal Academy’s strength and conditioning coach. Dominic explains exactly why it’s vital to have balance in the body and how strength underpins every movement, enabling the individual to effectively hold a core position and complete all other actions and movements. Dominic provides a fascinating insight into his work with athletes and shares his wealth of knowledge about how you can improve your strength and condition at home.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Strength underpins all athletic movement and athletic skills it allows you to hold a core position and then pivot, move and complete an action such as kicking The body works as a connected system what happens in the back impacts elsewhere. If there is an issue in a particular joint or muscle the body will compensate elsewhere. If a bone has too much load it can result in a stress injury so load management is crucial. We break down an athletes movement pattern into dicentric and concentric qualities. What is the force they can absorb and tolerate and what is the force they can produce? If you have a role that involves you working in an asymmetric way it’s important for long term health to undertake exercise to bring balance across the body. Core training should include; -Moderate force endurance training designed to stabilise the spine -High force static training -High force transference training It’s all about multi-plane exercise – front, back and sides and anyone can use these principles to improve their strength.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Players are getting stronger and fitter every year’ We typically want asymmetric symmetry to be less than 10% ‘It’s vital to have balance in the body’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  Dominic May LinkedIn   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

Associate Professor Dr Daniel Belavy https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/the-best-exercise-for-back-pain-feat-assistant-pro Note: In the episode Daniel is introduced as 'Assistant Professor', this is incorrect. His official title is 'Associate Professor Dr Daniel Belavy'. We aplologise for this innacuracy.  Dave and Rob are with Associate professor Daniel Belavy, one of the authors of a new paper recently published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine which addresses the ultimate question ‘What exercise should I be doing for my lower back pain?’ They discuss how network metanalysis was used to compare different types of exercise and the parameters that mean this research can be effectively used to understand which type of exercise should be undertaken by those with chronic back pain. KEY TAKEAWAYS We used a methodology analysis called network metanalysis to compare different types of exercise. This research focused entirely on bringing together studies that were about exercise as a treatment for lower back pain. The mode of exercise varied from Pilates, stabilisation, to stretching and extension work. Active exercise therapies are likely to be the most beneficial for back pain Helping people to reduce their fear of movement is a big part of the journey to recovery. Building confidence is part of the process in the treatment of back pain. The analysis focused entirely on comparing active exercise treatment data in relation to chronic non-specific lower back pain. The results of the study indicate that modes of exercise such as Pilates, resistance, aerobic, and stabilisation are the best types of exercise to undertake for lower back pain.

]]> 2569 What Is Sciatica? https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/what-is-sciatica Tom Jesson is a physio who has a particular interest in sciatica and in this episode, he explains exactly how your nervous system works and what sciatica is. He chats to Rob and Dave about perceptions and what you can do if you have recent onset sciatica along with the possible ways forward for those who experience chronic sciatica. Tom shares detailed but very accessible information about sciatica and what to do in this episode packed with valuable content.   KEY TAKEAWAYS The Sciatic nerve is the large nerve that runs down the back of the leg and the term sciatica is used to describe any pain connected with this nerve. All the nerves in your body are connected in a network and are very strong but also very sensitive. Once a part of your nervous system is sensitive then a range of different things can cause pain. The pain that people experience can be very different. Radicular pain is a term used to describe nerve root pain. Radiculopathy refers to a problem with the nerve root that stops it working properly A nerve tells you what is going on in the world but if it is irritated or damaged it may not send the signal. It also sends signals down from your brain to activate functions in the body. Loss of function can be caused by damage to the nerve. If someone has recent onset sciatica then it’s important to be optimistic because the body will heal if you look after your general health. Movement is good for the body and nourishes through increased blood flow to all areas.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Even if you are in pain it’s important to keep moving’ ‘It’s important that patients keep a journal so that success can be tracked over time’ ‘Give your body the right environment to get better’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  Tom Jesson Twitter Tom Jesson Sciatica Newsletter   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 5447 Back Pain Myths - Sam Spinelli https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/back-pain-myths-sam-spinelli Sam Spinelli is a hugely experienced strength and conditioning therapist based in Canada and in this episode, Rob and Sam explore some of the commonly held myths about back pain and its causes as they discuss posture, position, flexion and stretching. Sam shares some great practical tips about movement and exercises that will have a positive impact along with detailed information about the research and data behind the work that he undertakes with his clients.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Posture is multifactorial there are many reasons why you may be in a particular position or postures. Different positions and postures regulate the stress on different tissues. The times where stress exceeds the capacity of the tissues is the time when an individual experiences pain. Changing posture can be about relieving stress on tissues and as humans, our bodies thrive on changing posture frequently. In the workplace, there is no particular posture that is more likely to cause back pain. When you lift the effects are determined by your familiarity with the position and posture and how often you are in that posture. Your spine adapts to what you are doing. You have to bend and flex as part of daily movement so preparing to do it can be beneficial. Slow repeated movements can improve flexion. There are options that provide better results than static stretching. If you are looking to achieve a meaningful lengthening of muscle resistance training is the best option.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Start crushing life’ ‘A static bent posture does not show a consistent relationship with more back pain’ ‘Often there is a lot more to peoples posture than just a worry about back pain’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  Link to article here. https://www.strongerbyscience.com/lumbar-flexion/Instagram handles @citizenathletics1@dr.samspinelli E3R3HAB   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

In this episode, we chat about what Arthritis actually is and the ways in which exercise and lifestyle can help to optimise your body system. It’s a huge topic and Jack shares some great advice about joint inflammation what any individual can do to optimise and access the right resources at the right time.   KEY TAKEAWAYS The term arthritis means joint inflammation, Osteoarthritis is the most common form with the joint ageing over time. Anything that increases the resting level of inflammation slightly to a higher level will then accelerate the age-related changes to your joints. Everyone’s joints deteriorate but it is individual in terms of when it happens and whether there is pain and osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis isn’t about developing a disease it’s about altering the speed of the normal ageing experience. You have to take people on their individuality and if you have pain the treatment is the same as the treatment to reduce the risk of it happening. Your genetic component is linked to your predisposition and pain threshold response. If the issue isn’t keeping you awake at night and it isn’t reducing the distance you can walk to a great degree that is restrictive then a joint replacement is not the right solution. You need to optimise your body system and exercise is anti-inflammatory in its own right. The biggest change comes in changing the body system through exercise, dietary and lifestyle choices. Exercise has many beneficial effects including; the anti-inflammatory component, improvement of the joint and weight loss. The short term fixes don’t work whilst the longer-term fixes do work you just need to be consistent and persevere. If your symptoms are mild then seek early advice from a healthcare professional who can help you on the right path moving forwards   BEST MOMENTS ‘Some people can have a small change to the joint and lots of pain whilst others could have a large change to the joint and very little pain’  ‘There are 5 types of different arthritis but hundreds of different conditions that can cause it’ ‘It’s always about treating the person’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  https://rheumatology.physio   https://nass.co.uk   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 3686 Spinal Surgery Success Stories https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/spinal-surgery-success-stories In this episode, Jack Barton, who works in construction and is also a CrossFit Coach shares his experience of surgery and recovery. After his back injury impacted on the movements he could make and he took the decision to have Microdiscectomy surgery to resolve the issue. He discusses the process leading up to the decision and the surgery along with what it was like in the 6 week initial recovery period and beyond. This is a good opportunity to hear from someone who has been through a surgery, undertaken the rehabilitation and returned to an exercise regime successfully.   KEY TAKEAWAYS CrossFit is functional based training and includes weights, gymnastics and metabolic conditioning so the movements are varied I tried physio and went through 2 rounds of injections which had little impact and were uncomfortable before deciding on surgery. It was challenging to accept the need to have surgery and know that as an active person I would have to go through a 6-week recovery period with a restricted exercise regime. The course of physio was based on stretches and as a fit person, I was able to successfully move through the recovery sequence fairly quickly. My biggest fear when I started to exercise again was that there would be a relapse. I took things slowly and benefitted because I was healthy and had a high level of fitness, I also understood my body and knew how to move. I’m 85% better than I was and if I could adhere daily to the stretching and other exercises I would be even better. Good body awareness makes a huge difference along with understanding how to move and stretch your body. If you are considering surgery you need to understand that the better you go into surgery the better you will come out of it.   BEST MOMENTS ‘I knew the difference between gym aches and pains and pain or an ache that is an indicator of something to worry about’ ‘You don’t have to stop doing exercise you just have to vary what you are doing’ ‘You have to go into surgery as strong as you can’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com    ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

After his back injury impacted on the movements he could make and he took the decision to have Microdiscectomy surgery to resolve the issue.

He discusses the process leading up to the decision and the surgery along with what it was like in the 6 week initial recovery period and beyond.

This is a good opportunity to hear from someone who has been through a surgery, undertaken the rehabilitation and returned to an exercise regime successfully.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • CrossFit is functional based training and includes weights, gymnastics and metabolic conditioning so the movements are varied
  • I tried physio and went through 2 rounds of injections which had little impact and were uncomfortable before deciding on surgery.
  • It was challenging to accept the need to have surgery and know that as an active person I would have to go through a 6-week recovery period with a restricted exercise regime.
  • The course of physio was based on stretches and as a fit person, I was able to successfully move through the recovery sequence fairly quickly.
  • My biggest fear when I started to exercise again was that there would be a relapse.
  • I took things slowly and benefitted because I was healthy and had a high level of fitness, I also understood my body and knew how to move.
  • I’m 85% better than I was and if I could adhere daily to the stretching and other exercises I would be even better.
  • Good body awareness makes a huge difference along with understanding how to move and stretch your body.
  • If you are considering surgery you need to understand that the better you go into surgery the better you will come out of it.

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘I knew the difference between gym aches and pains and pain or an ache that is an indicator of something to worry about’

‘You don’t have to stop doing exercise you just have to vary what you are doing’

‘You have to go into surgery as strong as you can’

]]> 1909 Crossfit and Back Pain https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/crossfit-and-back-pain In this episode, Rob Crowley Chiropractor and CrossFit Competitor talks about the value of CrossFit as both a fitness methodology and a competitive sport. He shares what it means to an individual who trains in CrossFit in addition to their working week and how professional CrossFit elite athletes work towards their goals and how exposure to movement and load is the key to building resilience, strength and endurance. Rob reflects and shares great advice from all angles - as a chiropractor, physiologist, CrossFit competitor and CrossFit coach. Cross fit can be hard to define and this is a great opportunity to understand more about how and why CrossFit continues to grow in popularity year on year.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Load, movement and variety of exercise is very important to decrease back pain and keep people healthy. CrossFit is designed to be constantly varying functional activity performed at high intensity across times and domains. CrossFit has moved from the domain of athletes to being within the reach of the average person and this brings unique challenges for those individuals in terms of mobility and what they can achieve early on. The ability to coach complex and varying movements is about scaling for the differing abilities and experience. You need to understand the phases and stages of each lift to successfully build the necessary skills. There is a difference between CrossFit as a fitness methodology and CrossFit as a competition sport. In CrossFit, there is a paradox with movements where your lower back needs to be very stable such as weight lifting but there are also gymnastic movements that require the lower back to be very mobile and they might be in the same workout. The same treatments work with athletes and the average person but often the average person doesn’t feel they need the level of care an athlete has. Bodies aren’t fragile there isn’t a bad movement it’s having the strength, endurance and skill to perform the movement.   BEST MOMENTS ‘I’ve never avoided loading my body and over the years this is what has made me resilient’ ‘We need to not make people afraid of lifting things it’s what we are designed to do’ ‘A CrossFit workout will always feel about the same, the amount you feel f#cked afterwards will change as you get fitter and recover quicker’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  Gain Recovery website   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 4289 Building the Golf Athlete - Shane Lawlor Sports Chiropractor https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/building-the-golf-athlete-shane-lawlor-sports-chir In this episode Shane Lawlor one of Europe’s leading golf performance therapists discusses the range of issues he sees repeatedly in his specialist area, golf and the solutions that he is able to offer. With extensive expertise and experience in the treatment, screening and rehabilitation of golf injuries Shane has travelled the world with professional golfers and has worked with athletes at all levels. He shares the methods and approaches that make a difference in physical performance and discusses what it really takes to build an athlete.   KEY TAKEAWAYS The pros get back problems because they hit too many balls at speed and the amateurs get problems because they don’t rotate in the right way. In the treatment room, a selection of movement screens are used to work out what the problem is. We know now even if you have  back pain you need to be moving around. It’s about putting evidence and experience together. Back problems for amateur golfers are usually focused around hip mobility. Golf is a close chain movement where your feet are planted and then your hips are moving over them. The rotation should come from the hips but if this doesn’t happen then the strain is on the back. The type of disc and facets in the back can determine whether someone is suitable for a particular sport. When you are building a golfer, you are building an athlete. Early specialisation of sports can be a problem because you overload on a particular pattern very early on. If you can get the core working effectively then this lessens the strain on the back. Extra mobility doesn’t mean you are more stable it’s all about control. You can’t add length without adding strength and you are mobilised by strengthening it’s important to stay strong. It’s a very diverse sport and no 2 swings are the same so you should never try and copy someone else’s swing. What makes someone a pro is their ability to get around their own limitations.    BEST MOMENTS ‘If you build your mental game you can make it your reality’ ‘If you can’t hit a ball 300 yards or more then you are at a significant disadvantage so young players are always chasing speed as this means more distance’ ‘There is no best coach it’s the coach who best suits the person’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  The Golf Chiro website Shane Lawlor LinkedIn   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 3542 Chronic Pain with Dr. Derek Griffin https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/chronic-pain-with-dr-derek-griffin Derek Griffin specialist musculoskeletal physiotherapist with expertise in chronic pain disorders is talking about chronic pain and how pain is understood on both an individual and societal level. There are many factors that influence an individual’s experience of pain and Derek explains the importance of listening to the patient and bringing understanding to the narrative. Everyone will seek to make sense of their pain and understanding the many factors that interact to not only influence the pain but determine the response can help in the management and treatment of individuals. We are subject to many societal beliefs about back pain from early on in our lives but the narrative can be changed if we are prepared to listen.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Chronic pain is an umbrella term for a number of conditions so it’s important to recognise each individual and their story. Pain is a societal problem and people have beliefs about pain whether they are suffering it or not. Its widely believed that pain equals damage to tissues resulting in pain but there is not a 1 to 1 relationship between pain and damage. There are many factors that influence an individual’s experience of pain You can have damage and not have pain and also have pain without any obvious injury. There is a huge interaction between our beliefs, behaviours, how we cope with pain and how the nervous and immune systems respond which influence pain and its persistency If you can link key concepts to the patient’s story you can help them to reflect. Even when you can’t change someone’s life there are ways to help them improve their coping mechanisms. There has to be a blame-free narrative and there are many things are involved in the experience of pain. It’s always about listening to the individual and their story. There are lots of reasons around the societal beliefs about back pain and how it persists but it about shifting the beliefs at a population level to make change   BEST MOMENTS ‘No activity is too little’ ‘It’s human nature to try and attribute something to a particular event because it brings control’ ‘It’s about changing the narrative of pain’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  Derek Griffin Twitter Derekgriffinphysio@gmail.com   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 2488 Back Pain and Cycling - Is it normal? How Can I Prevent it? https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/back-pain-and-cycling-is-it-normal-how-can-i-preve Discover today how your back pain when cycling can be eliminated with a simple bike fit. Today we are joined by Ricky Davis, chiropractor and bike fitter who explains the critical importance bike fitting can have on your comfort and performance on the bike whether you're a lifelong cyclist or just starting out. Ricky shares some key exercises for improving your strength in and out the saddle and why getting that fine balance is extremely important. KEY TAKEAWAYS There’s a 50/50 split for acute trauma injuries on a bike e.g. falling off and fracturing something, and then the chronic overuse and pain. Disc overload or disk anti-pressure can often cause the sciatic nerve troubles close to that area and they can refer down and into the legs. Not only is there mechanical pressure in the saddle but also the lower back, making many people fear cycling. There are specific stretches and techniques for cycling and mobility. Certain yoga poses such as ‘Pigeon Pose’ whereby you stretch through your hips. As well as strengthening exercises like ‘Dead Bugs’ which are an amazing core exercise whilst in a peddling movement, coupled with one-legged glute exercises. The majority of the issues related to lower bike pain in connection with bike fitting is that somebody can be too low in terms of the front end of the bike meaning they’re putting excess stress onto the lower part of the back or they are too high on a road bike you have to have a balance between the two. If you are first getting into cycling, getting a bike fitted correctly to you will change your view on cycling. If you go cycling without this, and find it painful it will put you off. Pain is the biggest limiter of success on a bike as you are not able to do what you love to do. You can increase performance with a good bike fit. The reason you will be faster and perform is that if your muscles are in the right ranges then all your power from your glutes will be going into the pedal. If everything is working as it should, we can improve on things.   BEST MOMENTS “People think that’s just a normal feeling, that is just cycling but it is not, you don’t need to be feeling this stuff.” “These are going to be invaluable to strengthen you off of the bike as well.” “Discomfort will be the thing that limits you the most.”   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  John Thomson The McKenzie Institute website   Links To Exercises (valuable resources) https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwjD6fOP5tjpAhWiVBUIHXpaDdwQFjASegQIAhAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.yogajournal.com%2Fpractice%2Fpigeon-pose&usg=AOvVaw1ZkTLlhHMLjt__eqJFXZsB https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwjE95uc5tjpAhUOTRUIHQH_DjkQFjAYegQIAhAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.coachmag.co.uk%2Fabs-workouts%2F6384%2Fthe-dead-bug-exercise&usg=AOvVaw1rLBC515ZAVnvhY62ZGzsU https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwiv7aio5tjpAhVQZxUIHVCABXsQwqsBMB96BAgLEAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Db9bHy3ojQWA&usg=AOvVaw2O3Ki5ZxGpAyeL1Lm3vPC5     ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

He is also lead consultant in pain medicine at the Royal Berkshire Hospital in Reading. One of his key areas of interest is Fibromyalgia. A Chronic pain condition which not only causes a significant amount of back pain but also makes the pain from other conditions much worse! We talk today about the widespread problem that is Fibromyalgia, how common it is and its relationship to other pain conditions. Deepak is a world-renowned expert on this topic, so some takeaways for sufferers as well as healthcare professionals.    KEY TAKEAWAYS Fibromyalgia is a chronic widespread pain condition characterised by sleep deprivation, memory loss, extreme fatigue and widespread pain throughout the body. Listening is an important part of a consultation and helps to build a detailed picture of people’s lives. Fibromyalgia affects around 3 million people in the UK Younger people are now being diagnosed with fibromyalgia and this has an impact on both society and the economy. It’s a dysfunction of the nervous system and the question is what are the changes for young people that are leading to this dysfunction? The immune system and the nervous system are tied tightly together and they can both be profoundly affected by stress If you look  closely at what you eat you can potentially make a huge difference to fibromyalgia Pain is not a signal something is wrong it’s an alarm system and then the brain decides how dangerous it is ‘it’s a danger signal’ the brain makes a decision based on prior experience Some patients will have both fibromyalgia and back pain and it is likely they will have an amplification as the body is wired to be more sensitive. When you have a sensitive system it’s important to reinforce the message that it alright and therapies can make a difference   BEST MOMENTS ‘Hurt does not equal harm, this is an important message to understand’ ‘Any treatment approach must be tailored to the individual and we  need to find multiple ways to calm the nerves’ ‘Once a diagnosis is made moderating your lifestyle and completing activities routinely that help your body are key’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  Circle Health website The Berkshire Pain Clinic website     ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

]]> 5037 Do I need Surgery for my Back pain? A Spinal Surgeons Perspective https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/do-i-need-surgery-for-my-back-pain-a-spinal-surgeo Rath Sundaram is a Consultant Orthopaedic, Trauma and Spinal Surgeon at Gloucestershire Hospitals Foundation Trust and is the spinal lead for Gloucestershire Hospitals. As well as working in the NHS he has a large Private patient base. The elective work he provides is mainly for sciatica, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, scoliosis, cervical radiculopathy and myelopathy. All which are significant causes of back pain, and disability. We go into detail about the different types of Spinal Surgeries for back pain, when they should be done, benefits and limitations of each, as well as tips on when it's appropriate to see a consultant spinal surgeon and much more. So, if you have back pain and are worried about having surgery or if you are just exploring your options then this episode is for you!   KEY TAKEAWAYS The majority of diagnosis are made from the individual’s history and with an examination, a scan would be done to confirm this. Only 5% of individuals will require surgery because the majority who have spinal pain symptoms will heal over time. There is considerable research around the types of people who do well and are the right people to operate on. No two patients are the same it’s about relative anatomy and the way individuals are built. We treat the person, not the scan. The evidence shows that physical therapy can help things to settle down over time. If this doesn’t reduce pain then surgery can be considered. The more common operation is a lumbar discectomy procedure. Fusion surgery is done when there is instability and movement in the spine. The most common cause of this is spondylolisthesis With surgery people are usually home the next day. Your body will be tired and good therapy will help get you back to your normal state as quickly as possible. Decisions about treatment are based on the level of symptoms and the quality of life. It is about whether someone can live their everyday life.   BEST MOMENTS ‘The spine is a dynamic structure’ ‘When you are in severe pain for a period of time it can be difficult to accept that it will get better in time’ ‘It is reasonable to consider a scan after 6weeks if the treatment isn’t making a difference ’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  https://www.itsmyspine.co.uk   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

AxSpA is an umbrella term that includes AS or Ankylosing Spondylitis as well as Non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis. Both can be crippling! We chat to Jack March, a Specialist Rheumatology Physio about his role in practice as an Advanced Level Physio at Nuffield health, alongside that he is also Project lead of The Physio Matters Podcast and has lectured extensively on Rheumatology and Inflammatory Back Pain In this episode, we will go over what to do if you think you have inflammatory back pain or AxSpA, tips if you have a diagnosis and some great resources to turn to for further information. KEY TAKEAWAYS Axial Spondyloarthritis is an umbrella term for a number of conditions where the ligaments attached to the bone become inflamed. In AxSpA the immune system loses the ability to tell those cells that connect the ligaments to the bone as being a part of you. It is an alteration of the immune system so for most people its managed through inducing remission. Next steps will usually be an anti-inflammatory medication and for many, this will be sufficient to control the symptoms With AxSpA there are very specific pattern it is a younger person’s condition with onset usually being under 45 although it may not be diagnosed for a number of years. Classic symptoms include spinal stiffness for a period usually in excess of an hour and pain and stiffness that wakes people in the night, only alleviated by loosening through movement. If you are diagnosed early and treated early the best outcomes are achieved. When medication and pain management are under control, key lifestyle factors are avoiding smoking, keeping active and healthy eating. It’s about regular exercise, whatever that is for the individual, you should be aiming to lift your heart rate for 150mins a week.   BEST MOMENTS ‘There is nothing wrong with the tissue it’s the inflammation that is causing the pain’ ‘Inflammation stimulates more inflammation so it’s about stopping the cycle’ ‘It’s not a consequence of any damage to the spine’ VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  Rheumatology Physio NASS website ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

In this episode, we will go over what to do if you think you have inflammatory back pain or AxSpA, tips if you have a diagnosis and some great resources to turn to for further information.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Axial Spondyloarthritis is an umbrella term for a number of conditions where the ligaments attached to the bone become inflamed.
  • In AxSpA the immune system loses the ability to tell those cells that connect the ligaments to the bone as being a part of you.
  • It is an alteration of the immune system so for most people its managed through inducing remission.
  • Next steps will usually be an anti-inflammatory medication and for many, this will be sufficient to control the symptoms
  • With AxSpA there are very specific pattern it is a younger person’s condition with onset usually being under 45 although it may not be diagnosed for a number of years.
  • Classic symptoms include spinal stiffness for a period usually in excess of an hour and pain and stiffness that wakes people in the night, only alleviated by loosening through movement.
  • If you are diagnosed early and treated early the best outcomes are achieved.
  • When medication and pain management are under control, key lifestyle factors are avoiding smoking, keeping active and healthy eating.
  • It’s about regular exercise, whatever that is for the individual, you should be aiming to lift your heart rate for 150mins a week.

]]> 2699 The McKenzie Method for Treating Back Pain https://omny.fm/shows/the-back-pain-podcast/the-mckenzie-method-for-treating-back-pain John Thompson is a physiotherapist and lead instructor for the McKenzie institutes in Europe.  This episode is dedicated to the McKenzie method for treating and solving lower back pain.  The McKenzie Method® of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy® (MDT) - MDT is a philosophy of active patient involvement and education which is trusted and used by practitioners and patients all over the world for back, neck and extremity problems. This approach continues to be one of the most researched physical therapy-based methods available.    KEY TAKEAWAYS The system is a complete system of assessment diagnosis and treatment. It aims to treat anyone for spinal pain or extremity pain that can be improved through movement. It aims to move the patient to the end of their movement range and monitor how their symptoms behave. The McKenzie system aims to identify recognised patterns. The 3 patterns seen the most are derangement, dysfunction and postural. Postural – pain when in a particular position for an extended amount of time – this is about education to change the movement that is causing the pain. Dysfunction – tight or shortened tissue always related to back or neck with the pain only happening when the tissue is stretched. Stretching out therapy encourages the tissue to loosen. Derangement – variable in presentation with a loss in the range of movement that is not consistent. You can achieve a rapid change through exercise. The diagnosis and classification is based on the symptoms shown by the patients. The McKenzie method uses therapist techniques during both assessment and treatment and for those patients who can’t move themselves it is an essential component.   BEST MOMENTS ‘I felt I should be able to do more for my patients’ ‘If you are a patient who has had episodic pain and finds pain in completing certain tasks and activities then you should consider the McKenzie method’   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain PodcastFree Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  John Thomson The McKenzie Institute website   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave ElliotDave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.
