PROSPECTIVE PATIENTS
Welcome and thank you for your interest as a potential patient at Legion RAF.
For those familiar with physical therapy, you know that sessions and goals can take many forms.
Below is an outline of my treatment philosophy and where/how my patients and I can find the most success with regards to reaching their goals.
Overarching any understanding about the course of physical therapy: it is a process in order to reach a goal. It takes a well-thought out, progressive, and systematic plan of care between a patient and physical therapist in order to best direct session activities.
I am up front with all my patients in that the more time, effort, and attention they put towards their plan of care, the more they are going to get out of physical therapy sessions.
Think of it akin to any goal-oriented program. Weight loss? A dietician and personal trainer will have plans to guide and keep you accountable. Running a marathon? A running coach will get you up to speed and prepared. Training for the Olympics? A coach or a team of coaches will establish a training program for you to follow and alter as needed. All of that is to say:
Physical therapy and rehabilitation for an injury or change in condition are no different.
Patients who do well in any rehabilitation program, commit to a plan of care under the physical therapist’s guidance in order to reach their goals. This includes the understanding that having to interrupt their plans of care for any reason, will result in an alteration of that plan, and a possible alteration in the timeline of their goal.
However, I get that life happens, and to adjust is to also stay on track!
My commitment to each and every one of my patients is that regardless of whatever circumstance comes up, I will do my best to guide you towards your chosen goal.
With our commitment to your plan of care, you will be sure to see successes and improvements - some that you might have thought impossible!
