Pain is the body’s way of letting us know that something is not right. Some people will tolerate a certain level of pain, thinking that it is normal or that it can help them understand where they’re at in terms of an injury or condition.
Being in pain, however, has a detrimental effect on many aspects of our health. It can lead to postural issues, if we are compensating for the pain of an injury, affects emotional wellbeing, increases stress levels, & reduces immunity.
