Podcast Episode 13 – What is Psychotherapy and how psychological stress effects pain and injuries – with Donovan Pyle
In this episode Helen and Reece chat to Psychotherapist Donovan Pyle. Donovan explains what Psychotherapy actually is, and and how he uses a type of therapy called Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in his practice.
Donovan also talks about the effect psychological (i.e. non-physical) stress can have on pain and injuries.
This episode is the first of 3 which all link very closely together. Partly because we couldn’t stop chatting!
Education is key:
These blogs are designed to give information to everyone, however, it is important to remember that everyone is different! If you have not seen one of our therapists and have any questions about injuries, what you have read or whether this may be useful to you, please just ask. We are more than happy to help anyone and point you in the right direction. Our biggest belief is that education is key. The more you understand about your injury, illness and movement, the more you are likely to improve.
