The Healing Journey
Author: Dr. Maria Parisien, Chiropractor
Have you ever had an injury that you thought was recovering well until one day it suddenly wasn’t? Trust me, you’re not alone. This may actually be the norm if anything.
Healing IS NOT always linear - healing looks more like the chart on the right! We can have really great days, and we can have days with set backs and flare ups and both are NORMAL!
Similar to how our body adapts to weight training, we are constantly in a flux of damage followed by repair.
Although discouraging, a bad day with flare ups and set backs doesn’t mean you have lost progression! This doesn’t mean you have to stop moving or that you can never do “the thing” that flared it back up, we just have to tweak things for a short duration then get you back to doing it again!
Things like this will happen and if we have the right mindset and a plan for when flare ups do take place, you’ll get back to the top of that graph quicker!
