💭 Are you stuck waiting for your pain to go away before you start living again?

This mindset traps so many people in the quick-fix doom loop — chasing miracle cures, hoping this one will finally fix everything.

But here’s a powerful shift:
👉 Don’t wait for pain to ease before living the life you want.
👉 Start clawing back the life you desire, to help get in control of your pain.

At PhysioPM, we focus on restoring what matters most to you—step by step. Not just pain relief, but purpose, movement, and momentum.

Stop chasing quick fixes.
Start living—with support, strategy, and science on your side.

🧠💥 Not all pain has an obvious cause — and that doesn’t make it any less real.

Pain doesn’t always come from injury, and scans like MRIs or X-rays don’t always show the full picture.

If you’re in pain and people can’t “see” it, that doesn’t mean you’re crazy, lazy, or need to “toughen up.”

You just need the right support — and you deserve it.

How our lifestyles can affect our pain 🧐

A new study from Núñez-Cortés et al (2025) has observed links between certain lifestyle factors and the likelihood of severe pain in participants over 50 years old, who experience pain.

No surprises that inadequate physical activity, diet, sleep and smoking history all increase the likelihood of severe pain. This doesn't neccessarily mean that these factors cause pain, only that they are linked to heightened risk of severe pain levels.

Nor does it mean that by exercising more you will automatically experience less pain.

What it does mean is that addressing these risk factors can be a useful tool in your recovery.

Sticking with Exercise 🏃

It's easy to get caught up in bootcamps, fitness challenges and gym classes. Don't get me wrong, these can be great for the right people. However, if you're just getting started on your fitness journey, this can be a sure-fire way to overcommitting and burning out.

You want the sustainable approach. Remember, Rome wasn't built in a day.

Start small, an almost laughable amount of exercise, an amount you might think is a waste of time. But, starting off, you aren't looking to build muscle or fitness, you're looking to build a habit that sticks.

Jefferson Curls 🏋

In years gone by I would look at these and cringe, but they've really become one of my regularly prescribed exercises for upper and low back pain.

Bending your spine - with or without back pain - has a lot of stigma attached to it, usually the dialogue is that it's bad for you, however this hasn't been proven to be the case in research.

Start with a light weight, something that feels easy to lift and bend to a level that you feel comfortable with. If you do this a few times each week, you'll likely find that your ability to lift heavier and bend further improves.

If you've felt stuck with your back pain and would like an assessment and personalised advice on managing it, shoot me a DM or feel free to book online:
