One Thing with Celest Pereira on how your reactions are shaping your childrens' ability to deal with pain

In this Friday guest episode of The Therapy Edit, Anna chats to Celest Pereira about the fascinating topic of neuroplasticity and the impact that your well intended words can have on your child's approach to pain. You'll learn about the 'Threat Bucket' and how you can nurture your child's confidence and pain tolerance in later life.

Celest is a self-confessed geek who loves anatomy, neuroscience and biomechanics. She miraculously acquired her BSc (Hons) in Physiotherapy in 2009, despite dropping out of school at 16. She found learning at school really tough, however now credits her ability to make complex concepts easy to grasp, down to her learning struggles. She runs regular education-based workshops where she takes current scientific research, anecdotal evidence from senior healthcare providers and applies them to movement disciplines. She’s currently specialising in functional neurology, learning how it can be applied to improve pain, health and performance.
