Language matters more than we think
The way we talk about back pain can change how it’s experienced.
When we hear messages like
“protect your back”
“be careful here”
“this movement is risky”
our nervous system listens.
Fear and expectation alone can increase pain — even without injury.
This doesn’t mean ignoring pain.
It means offering calm, steady messages that support confidence instead of fear.
Your words — to yourself and in the room — matter.
✨ I teach with evidence, compassion, and permission to move at your own pace.
