Results - not time - are how to measure how effective your treatments are. Never base your rates in time.
I would take any mention of time OFF your website. If you want to include wording to the effect that an initial visit may be up to a certain amount of time, that’s one thing. But you aren’t an insurance company and your treatments should not be attached to a pre determined amount of time. That’s setting an expectation that you don’t want the patient to have
I had more happy patients when I spent less time with them but used skills that were much more effective.
Believe me, patients don’t want to be in your clinic for an hour or more. Unless you serve alcohol and food.
Caveat - you don’t need to spend 10 years learning how to be effective and deliver exceptional results. We have the training to get you there much faster.
I have a whole slew of new people with neurological stuff: Parkinson's, dystonia, neuropathies, cranial nerve pathologies, etc. I want to learn more about how to treat these conditions -- what resources (either here in locals or elsewhere) should I check out? If anyone in this group studied these in depth, I'd love to hear what made a difference for you.
@Exstoreman: in the MP Manual, I am assuming “cephalic” and “superior” are not used interchangeably. I am specifically looking at anterior glut med as it is one of the few MP that I still sometimes have to redirect the needle for.
The location is: find greater trochanter and progress in a cephalic direction moving superiorly 4 inches and posterior one inch. In this example, what is the difference between “cephalic” and “superior”?
Thank you!- Angela
Hi @Exstoreman , I have a male 24yo patient with left heel pain for 1 year. Has been diagnosed with calcaneal bursitis. It’s swollen and red. He plays high level soccer and trained 4x/week plus games on the weekend. The heel feels worse during and after games/training. Feels better for ice baths after games. He’s had physio, cortisone injection which did help but the problem came back. He’s also had the same problem on the right side it that has subsided and not returned after cortisone injection.
The shape of his heel may make him prone to more friction from his shoes . He’s got new orthotics which don’t seem to be helping.
He initially presented with bilateral psoas and GMin inhibition. Corrected with motor point acu and psoas pecking. Also addressed soleus and gastroc MP, inline technique along the Achilles, plus soft tissue work around the Achilles and calves. Also used Lectric washing soda compress to draw out the fluid.
We’ve had 7 sessions so far and he’s maybe 20% ...
