Provider of self-help for lower back pain and sciatica, Edinburgh Osteopath Gavin Routledge explains why “no pain no gain” has nothing to do with recovering from LBP or sciatica.
The points made include:

- You will prevent healing
- You will sensitise your nervous system leading to more pain
- It will lead to setbacks which are depressing
