When Biomechanics DOESN'T Matter

Greg Lehman has been a pioneer in helping us to understand pain and biomechanics and finding out when they matter.

He is a advocate for “Movement Optimism” - an approach that helps you build confidence in your body and avoid the common trap (fueled by well meaning health care professionals) of getting stuck in sometimes irrelevant biomechanical narratives that create fear and entanglement in the body.

I would encourage you to watch at least the first five minutes as he pulls apart the most common things you might hear coming from your health care professionals mouth.

“What I often say is, it’s not the pain science or neuroscience that challenges these biomechanical ideas, it’s the biomechanics itself. And if you know the biomechanics well, you can really see the holes in the common arguments.”
