What if the reason your pain persists is not only found in the part of your body that hurts?
When pain continues despite treatment, exercise, medication or attempts to correct the physical problem, it may be necessary to look beyond muscles, joints and structural damage. Unresolved emotional experiences, chronic stress, fear and deeply held beliefs may also influence how the body responds and why pain remains.
In this episode of Beyond The Pain, Leigh speaks with Peter Strange, creator of the RESET Method, about his own journey from serious knee and spinal injuries to developing an approach that considers the structural, emotional and energetic influences on pain.
Peter explains how RESET—Realigning Emotions and Structure for Energetic Transformation—evolved from his background in fitness, kinesiology, manual therapy and energy-based healing. He also describes what he means by non-local connection and how he works with clients remotely.
Leigh and Peter explore:
- Why physical findings such as degeneration, disc changes or “wear and tear” do not always explain someone’s pain
- How unresolved emotions and significant life experiences may contribute to persistent pain
- Why pain can sometimes change when a person feels heard, safe or more in control
- The relationship between posture, thoughts, emotions and the nervous system
- How Peter developed the RESET Method
- What non-local connection and remote healing mean in practical terms
- Questions that may help you explore the emotional context surrounding your pain
- Why surgery may sometimes be appropriate, but should not automatically be viewed as the only option
- The importance of seeking appropriate professional advice and considering the whole person
This conversation does not suggest that physical injuries or structural problems should be ignored. Instead, it encourages you to remain curious about the different influences that may be affecting your pain and to consider whether there is another part of your story that has not yet been explored.
