It’s not always injury or stressful life event that can cause chronic pain for 10 years or longer. It can be from an ongoing lifelong disease which is what a lot of people fail to realise.
Thank you so much. I’m going to try to lean into some other topics like this because I think they have the opportunity to help a lot of people. Thanks for your comment. It helps me to be courageous to get outside of my comfort zone!
Thank you, I really enjoyed this so much and look forward to the entire series and further series to come! You vest deep thought in these unique videos.
Not going to lie though, I think the majority of the pain in chronic pain is from actual muscular imbalances, not some elusive fear mind body mechanism. For instance, I suffer from TOS and Piriformis Syndrome, and my capacity to use the computer increases upon strengthening the right muscles. Seeing progress is what really matters. Success and failure is harder to measure.
@@ChaplinPerformance Right. I believe the mind plays a role as an amplifier, but as the main cause? That’s a pretty big claim. There are always exceptions of course though. For instance, someone who can never relax because they’re constantly trying to improve and be successful like you mention. I could see this causing accessory breathing, but alongside all of the correct exercises and execution, I don’t know that it would be enough to continue the pain on it’s own.
@@ChaplinPerformance Maybe in specific cases, but there are plenty of people in chronic pain which has nothing to do with the mind. Take people who end up with necrosis in their hands due to lack of blood flow and nerve communication for example. You can’t tell me a limb decays and atrophies over time as a result of the mind.
@@ChaplinPerformance Not only this, but overuse injuries in which bigger muscles continue to become significantly stronger than supporting muscles or antagonistic muscles causing consistent injury upon movement of the area. Take a gym goer who only exercises their bicep and lats each time they go to the gym for years. It’s INEVITABLE they become injured for a long period of time as their body becomes more and more imbalanced. Their mental state most obviously does not play a major role in these cases.

Very true.
This video is so accurate. It s exactly my situation.
SO COMMON! Was my case too. Glad the video was useful!
@@ChaplinPerformance I did all your videos are really useful. Hope your channel becomes more popular so more people can stumble on your videos.

@@ChaplinPerformance Totaly getting you, I kind of ignored my chronic pain for almost 4 years because I did have courage to face it.

I appreciate that!! Trying to get out of my comfort zone a little with this one!
Interesting perspective ... Nice video ...
Thanks for watching!!

In my experience it is almost always a combination. Trying to pin it all on one domain is not a useful exercise in my experience

The current pain neuroscience research would seem to indicate that this is not a big claim at all. In fact, it is pretty mainstream at this point.
