Meilleure citation de The Science of Rehabbing Old Injuries

The brain learns and heals through gentle awareness, not force. Successful recovery isn't just about returning to pre-injury strength levels—it's about retraining the entire neuromuscular system and addressing the psychological factors that keep the nervous system in a protective state.
