Emotional – Physical Wellbeing & Pain Release
Emotional and Physical well-being don’t just go hand in hand, they are a co-existing ecostructure.
Emotional problems can lead to physical problems and physical problems can affect our emotions.
What do I mean by this?
You may have chronic or persistent pain somewhere in the body. The doctors have given you a diagnosis and prescribed medication. Often that’s it. No, follow up, nothing more to be done. Worse still, you may have been told you will never be any different, you will be like this forever.
That pain may be due to an emotional event such as the death of a loved one or a physical event such an accident. The pain condition is insidious, unnoticed and so the link is not made and yet once discovered and released through therapy, comfort reigns once more.
What if I told you that many people who have had pain for many years can release that pain either partially or completely. What if that pain is always an 8 out of 10 and yet after therapy, it is a 3 out of 10 or even 0? Similarly, people with other chronic conditions such as Type 2 diabetes can sometimes reverse the prognosis of later years. They reduce their HbA1C (long term sugar measurement), lose weight (if appropriate), feel fitter and better than they have for years with the threat of complications of diabetes gone.
What about people with allergic reactions, skin problems, asthma?
The person who has allergies and so can’t have a dog as a pet although their family would love one. Who can’t eat certain foods or wear certain fibres? Has to avoid people who wear certain perfumes. The allergy may restrict and reshape how they live their lives, what jobs they have, what functions they attend, what hobbies they pursue.
What if they can change this and therefore their outcomes in life?
The person with skin problems such as eczema and psoriasis may be on regular medication to take internally or creams and lotions to put on externally daily that can take an hour or so to apply.
The asthmatic may avoid sport due to breathing problems or need medical emergency nebuliser therapy due to asthma attacks. This may mean the loss of school or work time. What if this can be reduced or avoided? In the Eastern world, they have been treating the body as a whole for centuries. Complete connection. Here in the West, we are thankfully catching up and yet still lag behind.
*Books such as ‘The Body Keeps the Score’, ‘The Placebo Effect’, ‘How Your Mind Can Heal Your Body’, ‘The Biology of Belief’ and others like it show us just how powerful the mind is and how it affects the body.
Similarly, our bodies, our posture, our breathing, all affect how we think. The two are inextricably linked. They have to be. They are part of an amazing ecosystem. The way we treat our minds and bodies is essential to understand to move towards and maintain improved overall health.
I work with clients to achieve the above and in doing so I see their journey back to health and all the benefits that bring with it. If you would like to know more about the mind-body connection and how I can help you, please contact me today.
