Concepts in Pain Relief & Movement
If you have pain in your low back it must be coming from your lower back right?
Wrong!
Pain is just a symptom indicating that something has gone wrong and needs to be fixed. The site of pain is often not the cause of the pain.
You don't actually have any such thing as a "pain" nerve in your body. Pain is created in the brain and is a signal to take action.
If you have pain in your lower back your body is NOT
saying "I've hurt my back." It is really saying "something in my body is not moving correctly and as a consequence my lower back is working too hard."
THE PROBLEM:
Most often the reason that your pain lingers around so long is because your "specialist" - whether they are a doctor, physical therapist, masseuse or personal trainer - is working on the site of pain rather than the cause of the pain.
The human body is a collective of inter-dependant parts; none of them work in isolation. The whole body must be considered when attempting to eliminate aches, pains, stiffness, etc.
So if you have pain in your lower back, or shoulder or elbow or wherever; it could really be coming from your foot, ankle, neck, hip, knee, etc. The fact is that if you focus solely on the area where it hurts you will almost never solve the issue.
In almost every case, musculo-skeletal pain is a result of a body-wide movement problem that is causing a cascading chain of events leading to overuse and abuse of a certain joint or area of the body.
Z-Health takes a whole-body approach to identifying and fixing your movement problems.
my activity which may cause a sudden reoccurrence in pain which I experienced
up until I started training with Brian very recently. I am dedicated to exercising at
the gym but, still felt discomfort after exercising. I would go to bed feeling back
pain and, wake in the morning feeling stiff on my lower back. After, a recent
private session, my deadlift weight increased and, I am able to perform these exercises without any discomfort. I am also able to increase my weight in all
exercises after each session. My back problems did not improve doing my regular exercises at the gym and with a personal trainer there. I immediately felt relief
after my first session with Brian and, I have dramatic improvement in each session thereafter. After a recent session my deadlift weight increased by 25 lbs. This accomplishment did not dawn on me until I went home that evening. While
settling in for the evening, my eyes watered. I was in disbelief of my ability
to perform this well physically after suffering many years after a back injury.
I am grateful to have met a very skilled knowledgeable instructor like Brian.
I would highly recommend him as a personal trainer. Thank you Brian."

Just a few facts:
-
If you have a pain problem, you have a movement problem
-
Your movement problem is almost certainly not where your pain is
-
To get out of pain permanently you must fix where your movement problem is
-
Because your specific movement problem can literally be anywhere, you need a precise, body-wide approach to finding and fixing it quick! Only Z-Health can do this.
If you have had a "torn rotator cuff" or "blown out back" for the last 5 years... you don't. Soft tissue heals faster than that. You need to find out what kind of a movement problem you have that is causing that area to experience pain.
Things you NEED to know to eliminate pain forever:
-
Surgery changes the natural way the body was meant to move, you thought you had pain before, wait till after surgery!
-
Stretching an area that hurts will only aggravate it and make it worse, stop!
-
Massaging an area that hurts makes it worse as well
-
Remember that the site of the pain is almost never the cause of the pain
-
The nervous system is king of the body, change the nervous system and you change the body
-
Stop doing things that cause pain. Practice makes perfect right? Well the more you practice feeling pain the better you get at feeling it!

of a friend and went to a kettlebell and Z-Health class taught by Brian Copeland. From the very beginning he taught me the "why" along with the "how" to get
the most out of my workout, pain free! After two weeks in his class, my
back pain was non-existent and has not returned. His philosophy
concerning exercise is refreshing. I don't have to work myself to death or feel
pain to get some really fantastic results! He trains both mind and body and cares
to know where you want to be. He is available at all times to help with your
fitness goals. I recommend him to everyone I know!"
