Hi John, I just hit publish on a video I've been working on for weeks. It's called "Wrist Pain With Normal Imaging? Here's What Doctors Miss" — and if you've ever heard a doctor say "it's all in your head" after your tests came back normal, this is for you. Here's the truth most doctors don't explain: When you've had wrist pain for 3+ months, your nervous system literally changes. Brain imaging studies show your pain centers stay hyperactive even after your tissues heal. You develop a fear-avoidance cycle that makes you weaker every time you rest. This
is why rest hasn't worked. Why that brace didn't help. Why you feel worse after taking time off. In the video, I break down: - The structural model (yes, your tendons were damaged initially)
- The neuroplastic model (how chronic pain rewires your brain after 3-6 months)
- The 7-stage pain-fear cycle that keeps you trapped
- Why you need BOTH physical rehab AND pain reprocessing to actually
recover
The video is 15 minutes. It's worth every second if you've been struggling with this. This is Part 1 of a 2-part series. Part 2 will cover the tactical techniques - somatic tracking, outcome independence, graded exposure, all of it. But here's what I know about some of you reading this: You're a software engineer,
PM, or executive. You're used to solving complex problems efficiently. And you're thinking: "Okay, this makes sense conceptually, but I don't have time to spend the next 6 months experimenting with this on my own." That's exactly why we built our 1-on-1 coaching program for busy professionals who are ready to invest in a proven
solution. We'll assess your specific case, identify whether you're dealing more with structural or neuroplastic issues, and create a personalized roadmap. You
get direct access to an RSI-specialist PT who understands your work demands and can course-correct in real-time. No more guessing. No more wasted time. Just results. Watch the video to understand the problem. Book the call to get the solution. P.S. - We've helped over 3,000
professionals get back to full function. If you're ready to be next
