Pain is a warning sign that something is not right with your body and is controlled by the complex nervous system. Pain can be experienced as a result of an accident, surgery, poor movement, or sometimes for emotional reasons. Often our first impulse when experiencing pain is to stop moving but this is not always the right thing to do. There are lots of things that you can do to help yourself when you are experiencing pain and there are many resources available.
