Lessons From Instagram

September 09, 2021

In this week’s episode of Your Health Matters, I share about my lessons from Instagram. I post many things on Instagram as I advocate for physical therapy and in one of my Instagram reels, I noticed one particular comment regarding getting an MRI. I wanted to talk about it now because I wanted to tell you more about pain in relation to the comment.  
 
Tune in so you can understand more about the misconception surrounding MRI and what you can do if the treatment, for instance physical therapy, that you are undergoing does not help you in any way. You will also know more about pain in relation to time, your willingness to get better from it, and environmental factors. 
 
In this episode we discuss: 
 
[0:21] Introduction to the topic 
[1:16] Getting an MRI does not equate to getting surgery  
[3:03] MRIs do not necessarily tell you what is wrong  
[4:47] What you can do when nothing is happening with your physical therapy treatment
[5:57] Pain and time 
[7:09] Who are you without pain 
[8:07] Pain and environmental factors 
[8:36] Conclusion
