A Basic Principle of Rehab

A Basic Principle of Rehab

When your body experiences an injury it’s going to remember that injury

It remembers that injury because that injury is a direct threat to your survival and it wants you to survive

So because that injury was a direct threat to your survival it is going to do whatever it has to do to hold you back from putting yourself in that position again

Until or if you are able to show it that it no longer has to do that

To where you can show it that what you have done since the injury or since the surgery is enough for it to understand that it no longer needs to protect

That throwing is no longer a threat to your survival. That the baseball is no longer a threat to your survival. That your elbow or shoulder or arm is not something that is under direct threat that must be protected at all costs


This is a very very very basic principle of rehab

If your body thinks it still has to protect, then it will

If you show that it doesn’t have to protect, then it won’t

——————

The body does not make mistakes. If you’re having pain or restriction or inhibition, it’s not just “dumb”

There’s an actual reason for it

There is something that hasn’t been done yet, that needs to be done

And when that thing is done, the restriction will lift

——————

Put yourself

In a position

You no longer have to worry about it

And you will no longer have to worry about it

This is rehab. This is training.
