Let’s discuss.In this Episode:🔹 Physical therapy hasn’t worked for you because it isn’t addressing the root causes of your pain.🔹 TMS/Neuroplastic pain is caused by psychological factors, emotional factors, and a lack of attunement with the true self.🔹 Today, we go into each of these causes through the lens of “why hasn’t physical therapy worked?”🔹 Important Note: There are physical therapists trained in TMS/Neuroplasticity.
