"Better Movement includes almost two hundred high-quality and free articles that discuss the science of movement and pain. The articles are well-written, well-referenced, and generally contain information that is both practical and non-intuitive. You will find this information very useful if you are a manual or movement therapist, trainer, chronic pain sufferer, athlete, or someone who just wants to move better and feel better. The main theme of this blog is probably that the brain and nervous system has more control over pain, strength, flexibility, and endurance than most people think. Another theme is that mainstream ideas about pain, posture and corrective exercise are riddled with misinformation. Most of the positive feedback I receive about my writing is that it makes complex material easy to understand and apply. Some frequents topics include:
pain science
the biomechanics of efficient movement
the neuroscience of motor control
the cortical body maps
complex systems
movement variability
play
developmental movement patterns
central governors
corrective exercise
the science of mind-body practices
common myths related to manual or movement therapies
