Patient Education
to
Promote "Natural Healing"

"Natural healing," a phrase not too often mentioned in musculoskeletal care, is not always given a chance. Intervention often happens before nature has completed the process of healing. However, we cannot accelerate healing!! We can only prevent disruption or delay repair. To achieve optimal recovery of function (following repair) EDUCATION IS REQUIRED, not necessarily treatment.
Patients who experience pain arising from end-range stress of normal tissue require postural correction, interruption of end-range stress at frequent intervals, and a specifically designed strengthening program. Only the patient can correct his or her own posture, interrupt end-range stress, and perform strengthening exercises. THIS REQUIRES EDUCATION.

“Tell me I forget.

      Show me I remember.

         Involve me and I understand.”
