Summary
We all experience aches and pains at times, sometimes even serious injuries. But what happens when your pain doesn’t go away for months, years, or even a decade or more? What happens when you’re dependent on painkillers to get through the day and you begin to alter your life because of it? Our guest on this week’s podcast is corrective exercise specialist, Vinny Crispino, who broke his back surfing one day and began a 10 year healing journey.
Listen and learn:
- How painkiller addiction can happen to almost anyone
- Why you must take full responsibility for your own healing journey
- The importance of full body movement, not just focusing on the area of pain itself
- The value of corrective exercises

| 0:00.0 | In some of my training courses we have modules on injuries and pain management and we'll |
| 0:09.2 | often go around the room and trainees will share some of their recent experiences with pain |
| 0:15.4 | and injuries, skiing accidents, people into their knees, lower back accidents, picking up a |
| 0:20.4 | heavy box, shoulder injuries, all the things you would expect. Inevitably in a room of 30 or 40 |
| 0:26.6 | people, at least one or two people are dealing with a very long-term chronic pain situation. |
| 0:32.1 | Maybe it's a knee that hurts every time they move faster than a slow walk. Maybe it's a |
| 0:37.1 | lower back that hurts literally every time they do their nails or put their shoes on and when pain |
| 0:43.4 | becomes chronic you start to develop a relationship with pain. Good, bad, all of the above |
| 0:48.6 | distruggles the psychological challenges, the limitations in life and it can get pretty grim |
| 0:55.1 | and many of us might turn to pharmaceutical drugs, off-label stuff, self-medicating, |

| 1:26.5 | Now it doesn't mean there is not necessarily a solution. That's what we'll be chatting about |
| 1:30.6 | this week on the podcast. If you're new here, it's the Lucas Rockwood show. I'm a yoga teacher, |
| 1:35.4 | a teacher trainer, a serial entrepreneur, and the father of three kids, but first and foremost, |
| 1:40.3 | I'm a student. I like to learn things, so I go out in the world and find people reading, writing, |
| 1:45.0 | teaching, researching, interesting things and I bring their work here so hopefully we live more |
| 1:49.5 | inspired lives. If you have questions for the show, direct message me on Instagram. I'm at Lucas |
