124 Rethink your Back Pain with Dr. Tracy John DPT

Just because something shows up on a scan or a doctor has told you that you have "grade 4 XYZ" does not mean you're destined for a life of pain.

Today I'm sitting down with physical therapist Dr. Tracy John who doesn't think an MRI tells the whole story.

Dr. Tracy will help you rethink how to approach back pain, down to the exercises to focus on and how to move about your day to keep your body feeling good.

So if you have back pain or are just interested in keeping your body feeling amazing no matter what, then today's conversation is for you.

You’ll learn:

• How to properly engage your core
• Why your MRI might not have anything to do with why your back hurts
• And how to get the best value from your healthcare providers
