Opening The Doors To the Pain Solution with Colleen Jorgensen S01 EPS562

In the latest episode of the Empowerography Podcast, my guest is Colleen Jorgensen. Colleen is a Manual Osteopath, an Athletic Therapist, a Pain Care Aware Educator & Lead Trainer and a therapeutic Pilates, yoga and Somatic teacher. She started dancing at the age of 3 and hasn't stopped exploring movement & the human body since! Her deep fascination with how the body moves led her to a Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Science with a specialization in Athletic Therapy from Concordia University and a Rehab Pilates certification from Polestar Pilates. Her love of palpation and curiosity about how the body, mind and spirit are interconnected led her to a post-graduate degree in Osteopathy from Le Collège d'Études Ostéopathiques de Montréal (CEO), and a yoga and somatic teacher certification. Her interest in helping those living with chronic pain inspires continued studies and a certification in ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) and Functional Nutrition for Chronic Pain. Colleen is best known for bringing art and science together in her creative approach to compassionate pain care and movement. Combining manual therapy, current neuroscience research and the polyvagal theory with embodied movement, mindfulness, and a sense of play offers her clients a truly unique experience. In this episode we discuss pain care education, the relationship between pain and emotions and osteopathy.

"I've been working with people in pain since 96, but in  2010, I had a spinal cord compression injury,  and it really was life changing." - 00:06:59

"A lot of people who are living with pain when they have all of that frustration, hopelessness, you hear them say things like, I'll get back to XYZ when my pain is gone, or once I've had the surgery, or once this is fixed, and life can become very small and contracted when you do that."- 00:22:17

"Be kind to each other. You never know what someone's going through. Dare to be curious and explore." - 00:41:03
