Debunking the 5 biggest back pain myths.

This episode discusses an article from Spinal Physio debunking five common myths about back pain. The author, Kevin Hunt, a physiotherapist, argues that bending and twisting aren't inherently harmful, slipped discs are a misnomer, muscle pulls are often misdiagnosed sprains, sleep posture isn't a primary cause, and pelvic misalignment is usually overstated. He emphasises the importance of challenging the tendency to attribute pain to single events. The podcast also explores the Health Hexagon as a tool to mange back pain from his book, Pain: The Ultimate Mentor, which explores these ideas further.

It's time to change the way you think about back pain.
