In this video, Christina Worthing, a Registered Psychologist at In Step Physical Therapy, explains why the brain may continue to associate movement with pain and danger, how avoidance can contribute to stiffness and weakness, and how confidence can be rebuilt gradually.

You’ll learn:

✔ Why fear of movement happens after pain or injury

✔ How avoiding activity can affect recovery

✔ Why safe, gradual movement helps rebuild confidence

✔ How stress, anxiety, and frustration influence rehabilitation

✔ When psychological support may help during injury recovery

Recovery is rarely a straight line. Small, controlled movements, guided rehabilitation, and positive movement experiences can help the brain and body relearn that activity is safe.
