Dilemmas in embodied methods
Our bodily experience is a recognised conduit to understanding our social world and those who dwell within it. Concurrently, embodied research emerged as a legitimate and thought-provoking methodological approach that goes further to access depth in understanding than more distanced approaches.

There are three emergent themes, the adoption of which appeared essential for transforming…

Mean reported life satisfaction in the past was higher than that noted immediately after injury, following rehabilitation or for the future, while the lowest levels of satisfaction were reported around the time of inju…
