from 2021-07-22T23:00
Any treatment plan needs to be one that works and in this episode, Dave and Rob
share a great overview of what to look for to get the best therapist for you as an individual.
Because we are all completely unique and individual every good therapist will create a personalised treatment plan, designed to achieve the goals and outcomes you have discussed together.
Listen in and hear about the key things to look for so that you get the therapist that is the right one for you
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Every treatment is different and can take different amounts of time and may have different responses because everyone is individual
- You should leave every session feeling better in your movement, pain and outlook
- Is your therapist installing a positive outlook about your pain and your outcome?
- Have an agreed goal with your therapist, an end goal that you are both working towards
- Any therapist should give you the time to ask questions and answers may change the treatment plan
- Whatever the treatment the therapist should be able to tell you the reasons why they are doing it
- The opportunity to speak and talk is vital
- A therapist must listen carefully to what you are saying and actively focus on what you, the patient, are saying
- Building rapport and a relationship between the patient and the therapist is vital
- There needs to be an active component to any care along with the passive care
- The active care is the things you can do yourself; the passive care is what is done to you.
- Your practitioner should be giving you the tools and educating you about your condition and treatment
BEST MOMENTS
‘If they pass our tests chances are they are able to provide the best quality care that works for you’
‘Optimism and outlook are as important as treating the function and the pain’
‘We want to update and bring you into the treatment because we know that’s what works’
