Does existing in a larger body cause joint pain? (with Physical Therapist, Dr. Lisa)

Does existing in a larger body automatically lead to more joint pain and daily discomfort?

You may automatically assume, "yes!"...but what if that's a myth? To help navigate this popular topic I brought in Dr. Lisa, a weight-inclusive physical therapist and body image coach, to help us dive deep into how diet culture infiltrates the physical therapy space and challenge many misconceptions surrounding body size and pain.


Get ready to hear all about:

What actually causes pain (and how it’s not simply a result of body size). How to move away from the mindset that it’s your fault if you experience body aches, pains, or ailments. How to better understand the signals your body sends when you’re experiencing discomfort. One daily practice to help protect your body. & more!


Ps. Pay special attention to Dr. Lisa’s discussion on the shame people feel when they believe their body aches are their fault. You might hear some powerful parallels between the shame experienced from dieting failures and the shame related to physical ailments.

Weight Inclusive Physical Therapist & Anti-Diet Health & Body Image Coach

Do you count calories? Intermittent fast? Have you been on a diet for decades only to gain weight?

Have you been prescirbed weight loss by medical professionals?

Are you sure to get in an extra 30 minutes at the gym so you can enjoy dessert on date night?

Do you loathe exercise but believe it is necessary if you want to "manage your weight"?

What if all of that is a narrative we have been fed for a purpose that does not serve us? What if it actually harms us?


What if we spend most of our days berating ourselves, beating ourselves up, starving ourselves, missing out on life with the people we love and more for science that doesn't exist? And we do it all in exchange for advnacing our careers, living fully with our families, building the business we have always wanted to build and exploring the things that bring us joy so we can do more of them.

Physical Therapy in a Non-Diet Approach

The size of a patient’s body is erroneously blamed for a lot of health conditions, but that blame is doubly true for patients in large bodies suffering with chronic pain, joint pain, back pain, and mobility issues.

Weight stigma doesn’t end at the doctor’s office if physical therapy becomes part of the care plan, and the patient is shuttled from one weight-focused provider to another.

However, this week’s guest Dr. Lisa Folden is going to open your mind to an entirely different point of view. She is a weight-inclusive, body positive, HAES® aligned physical therapist and wellness consultant, and she is going to blow the cover off everything you have questioned about diet culture and your physical body.
