Hi all-first post. I am a professor and researcher studying the underlying mechanisms and effects of non-drug treatments of chronic pain.
I am also an artist - my second career and my passion. My art is shows the beauty of cells within the body in both normal and disease states.

I've been doing #SEO for my publication Massage & Fitness since the summer of 2019, & I'm still learning a ton.

In January 2020, we had about 1,400 organic visitors a month.

In 2 years, we had about 11K organics a month. Since then, it's been an average of 10K monthly.

If you want more ppl to visit your site w/ the right info, learn to play the long game.

For many years, I had seen many therapists complain and call out false info about #pain, #exercise, & related topics on social media.

But nothing much has changed.

Such #disinformation still prevails on Google, YouTube, IG, & other platforms. These sites & posts get 100K+ likes & monthly views.

And the #painscience crowd? They can't compare. A mere drop in the bucket at best.

So instead of complaining online, play their game & spread the right info to the public.

I used to be a #personaltrainer (2001-2015) who believed I can change clients' postures & fix movement patterns.

I thought those w/ "movement dysfunction" are more likely to get different kinds of joint #pain.

Well, this systematic review & meta-analysis finds that it's more likely the opposite:

Pain changes movement.
