For years, I treated pain as something to fix, something that meant I was broken.
But through yoga therapy, I realised pain is often the body’s way of asking for attention, awareness, and compassion.

When we shift from fighting our pain to listening to it, we step into a completely new kind of healing , one that’s empowering and lasting.

🎧 I share my story and the science behind this shift in Episode 1 of The Empowered Yogi Podcast:
Yoga Therapy for Back Pain, A Physio’s Perspective.

Healing your back pain isn’t about resting more, it’s about awakening more.

I used to believe recovery meant rest, stretch, and hope the pain didn’t come back.
But after years as a Brisbane physiotherapist, I realised something was missing.

Passive treatments physio, massage, even stretching can help for a while…
but they rarely change the way you move, think, or feel.

When I discovered yoga therapy for back pain, everything shifted.
Yoga wasn’t just exercise it was a map back to myself.
It retrained my body, regulated my nervous system, and reconnected me with my energy.

That’s when I learned: pain isn’t the enemy.
It’s the body’s invitation to evolve — to become the most empowered version of yourself.

If you’ve been stuck in the cycle of “quick fixes,” this first episode of The Empowered Yogi Podcast is for you.

✨ Let this be your reminder — you’re not just healing your back.
You’re awakening your whole self.

I walked into my first yoga class hungover, stiff, and completely disconnected… and walked out changed forever. 🧘‍♀️

It was London, January 3rd.
I’d just wrapped up a very indulgent European summer and my body felt heavy, tight, and tired.
I unrolled a £5 “non-slip” mat from Primark (that definitely wasn’t non-slip 😅) and slipped, slid, and sweated my way through 75 minutes of what felt like chaos.

But then… something shifted.
As I lay in that final pose, shavasana, my whole body sighed in relief.
For the first time in years, my nervous system exhaled.

I didn’t know it then, but that moment was the start of my healing.
Not just my body, but my awareness, my energy, and eventually, my entire approach as a Brisbane physiotherapist.

What began as a physical challenge became the doorway to yoga therapy for back pain — and to a new way of living in my body.

I was a Brisbane physio for 20 years … but something wasn’t adding up. 🧘‍♀️

For years, I helped people manage their low back pain with the same tools, physio, stretching, manual therapy.
And yet, they kept coming back. The pain kept coming back.

It wasn’t until I walked into my very first yoga class (on a slippery £5 mat in London!) that everything changed.
Lying there in savasana, I felt my nervous system exhale for the first time in years.
That moment led me to discover yoga therapy for back pain — a way of healing that goes beyond the body.

Because true recovery isn’t just about stretching or resting.
It’s about retraining your body, calming your nervous system, and reconnecting with who you truly are. 🌿

If you’ve been stuck in the “quick fix” cycle, this story might shift how you see healing forever.
