Is Therapy SPOT – Bellaire Right for Me?
Every industry features professionals of varying levels of passion, creativity, and skill. Physical therapy is no different in that some PTs demonstrate the passion of a novice, while others provide therapy with the skill of a novice. Some PTs may interact with patients in the flat bedside manner of a senior practitioner waiting to retire, while others have the patience and a listening ear of a seasoned therapist who understands the importance of personal attention.
Physical therapy crosses into multiple professional services. The first visit may feel like an examination in a doctor’s office, while the following sessions resemble a personal training class. Some patients comment that physical therapy at Therapy SPOT – Bellaire replaces a counseling session, and others yet value the in-depth analysis that an engineer may provide.
If you have not read the article “What Type of Patient am I?” to have a better understanding of yourself as a learner and how you interact with others in a work environment. I have found that some patients are “DIY” people, and they resist the advice and prescription of the therapist. I am a DIY person and I prepare myself accordingly before I seek out the advice of another professional. Ask me about my eye doctor experience, and I will tell you about how I almost put the wrong antibiotic ointment in my eye because I thought I knew enough about antibiotic ointments. It turns out that eye ointment is specially formulated to have a pH that is sensitive to the eye mucosa because the standard ointment is naturally abrasive to the eye.
