Love At First Science Episode 74 Part 1 - Rethinking Pain & Movement: The Mind-Blowing Power of Neuroscience with Missy Bunch
"I spent years searching for answers. I tried everything—chiropractors, acupuncturists, physical therapists—but nothing worked. Then, in one moment, everything changed."
In this episode, hosted by Celest, Missy Bunch shares the jaw-dropping story of how she went from being a professional dancer with a debilitating knee injury to discovering a life-changing approach to movement and pain relief.
Cel and Missy dive deep into:
How a simple movement cured years of chronic knee pain (and why it made her angry).
Why traditional rehab often misses the mark when it comes to pain.
The powerful connection between the brain and movement—and how you can use it to improve mobility instantly.
Why pain isn’t just about the body part that hurts (and what you should really be looking at).
How she went from working with elite dancers to teaching movement pros how to get faster, more lasting results.
Missy’s insights will completely change how you think about movement, pain, and healing.
