Lynn Schulte | When Pain Gets Worse: The Hidden Breakthrough Behind the Setback
Show Notes:
What if your client’s pain getting worse is actually a breakthrough waiting to happen? In this episode, Lynn shares a striking case where escalating pain revealed the real issue wasn’t physical at all—but an emotional story held deep in the tissues. You’ll hear how this postpartum client’s healing unfolded only after she released the belief that she had to “do it all alone”. Lynn shares how to identify these limiting beliefs to transform setbacks into powerful openings for profound healing.
✨ Episode Highlights:
- The hidden meaning behind worsening pain
- How emotions and beliefs get stored in the body
- Turning flare-ups into healing breakthroughs
- Techniques to uncover what the body is really saying

Love Dr. Rachael! She is such a gem in the Metro Detroit area. She was my pelvic floor PT during my first pregnancy and postpartum and inspired me to pursue pelvic health certification (coming from an Ortho PT clinic). I’m now working through Holistic Treatment of the Pregnant and Postpartum Body.
Thank you so much for this presentation…I am an osteopath and also trained in SER (love love Upledger!)…the piece about ‘freeze’ related to transgenerational trauma was very informative and a reminder to look further…I have had a client who lost a baby and when I treated her she felt she needed to give birth to this child…and then went back several lives and saw that she had also lost a baby many lives prior! This relieved her of some stress…so every piece of the puzzle counts…keep the nuggets coming, so appreciative! Best, Judith
Great interview, Lynn and Susanne, for pushing us beyond “hands on, hands in”, confirming our need as therapists, for wide, grounded personal presence for our clients to feel safe and then willing to bring forth those physical/emotional/transgenerational, traumas/beliefs that lead to more complete healing and return to function. Appreciate the shout out, and listened delightfully to two of my favorite teachers and mentors. All of this was gold!
