When Long-Term Pain Becomes Part of the Background
It starts small. A little stiffness in your neck. A dull ache in your lower back. You stretch. You wait. You hope it goes away. But weeks turn into months. And before you realise it, this problem isn’t temporary – it’s just … there.
You try the logical things. Physio. Painkillers. Maybe a massage or two. Your GP orders imaging. The scans don’t show much. You’re told to “keep an eye on it” or “manage it as best you can.” So you do. You adjust. You sleep differently. You avoid certain chairs. You start organising your life around the discomfort.
One client at Inspired Chiropractic told us her neck pain had been with her for six years. She could remember the exact day it began, and how she’d hoped it would pass. But it didn’t. It became her unwanted sidekick. It showed up in her workday, her holidays, her photos. You could see it in her posture, expression, and even her creativity. She’d stopped complaining about it. She’d simply accepted it.
‘You Just Get Used to It’ Isn’t a Good Plan
Pain can quietly steal your energy, mood, and spark. It might not shout every day, but it wears you down. That’s not something anyone should “just live with.”
We didn’t chase her pain; here at the practice, we focused on improving how her body worked. As her posture improved and her mobility returned, everything started to change. Better joint motion, improved muscle tone, and more stable movement led to something bigger: healing. Her body responded. It didn’t need another scan; it needed a chance to function fully again.
Let Healing Start With Better Function
“You don’t realise how much energy pain is taking until it starts to fade,” she said.
