Don’t base your value on time

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.

Hamstring Cramps

Best treatment for hamstrings that cramp when testing Glute Max? His CC: LBP and L Sciatica since L4-L5 herniation. Should I just do all their motor points? Cramp is close to knee almost right behind knee - bilateral.

I've already treated TVA, IO, QL, TFL, Glut Med Ant, Glut min plus perfusion. He's doing great but since we've had a ton of snow and he's walking behind the snowblower a lot his LBP has kicked up.

He's 73 yo generally in great health and very active.

Trying to do more pre-planning for each year so I can revisit instead of always creating something new.

This is a list I made of various conditions, articles, and videos that could be done each year re-occurring from awareness of awareness months for various conditions. I was wanting to post this list to see if anyone else has any consistency topics that they redo or reuse every year. Outside of awareness month topics there are also ads that can be reused based upon repeated holidays every year.

I would love to collaborate on this list to see other MSK topics and how you would use them year by year on repeat with some updates.

What permissions are generally needed for a hospital visit? I have a patient that wanted me to do a hospital visit for her parent. I told her with approval from her physician and hospital that I could do a visit.

Is there any paperwork outside of the normal paperwork I should know about to keep myself protected?
