Mapping Your Pain? (4of5)
How We Assess You To Create A Clear Story From "Root Cause to Current Symptoms" Based On Anatomy Trains - The True Muscular System.
By now, you’ve seen how a healthy back feels light, supported, and free. You’ve also seen how that design gets quietly interrupted — often decades ago — when the breath is restricted, the pelvis tilts, and the body starts compensating just to stay upright against gravity.
​
Now comes the moment most people find life-changing.
​
We don’t guess where your pain is coming from. We map it.
​
When the pelvis drifts even slightly off-centre — anterior tilt, lateral shift, rotation — gravity no longer flows evenly through your skeleton.
Your body has only one goal: to keep you standing and moving. So it does what it must. It redistributes the load along lines of tension to hold you upright.
​
Those lines of tension are called Anatomy Trains — continuous bands of Fascia and muscle that connect distant parts of the body like long, interconnected ropes.
When one part of the chain is pulled or restricted, the tension travels through the chain. The body compensates along these trains, and that’s exactly where pain eventually shows up.
The Anatomy Trains Map
Here's a short word from the creator of Anatomy Trains - Tom Myers.
The Superficial Back Line
We see this as a single continuous tissue, and it is the most commonly affected by Chronic Back Pain as a result of the Dysfunctional Movement caused by the Pelvis & Diaphragm Issues We've Taught You So Far.
The Site Of Your Back Pain
A Closer Look At How Fascia Appears At the Site Of Your Pain. Once Mapped, We Release These Adhesions And Open Up The Muscular System To Get You Pain Free.
Understanding The Trains Of Muscle Throughout Your Body, Along With Our Hands-On Ability To Feel Fascia In Its Different Forms, Leads Us To A Map Of How Your Pain Is Manifesting In Your Body.
​This is how we create such an up-to-date, complete understanding of your current symptoms and can map them back to the original dysfunction.
We hope you understand the level of detail we go into, only made possible by understanding Fascia, Sports Massage, modern anatomy principles like Anatomy Trains and Functional Movement. Your Chronic Back Pain is not a mystery once you have a clear assessment & treatment system like The Physology Method.
​
The final step is to get you pain-free.
The Physology Method was born specifically from this global approach. We have a clear map of your body, its Back Pain Symptoms, root cause, and the journey it has taken to reach its current state. Now all we need to do is reverse the journey by undoing the Fascia & Anatomy Trains restrictions and adhesions at the site of pain.
This gets you pain-free.
​
Once pain-free, we address the imbalanced Skeletal System and treat your Fascia to restore balance. This is how we correct the original postural dysfunction, allowing your body to function long-term, pain-free, and in balance.
