In this episode, I sat down with Katie Dabrowski to explore the relationship between neuroscience, psychology, and injury rehab. We discussed how pain is not just a physical sensation but a complex experience influenced by emotional states, past experiences, and neuroplasticity. We also touched on the importance of movement, progressive overload, and understanding the psychological aspects of pain management. We closed out the episode with a discussion about the future of training as healthcare and the need for a holistic approach to rehab that goes beyond just addressing pain.
