3 Answers to "How Long Until I Get Better?"
from Pelvic PT Rising
It's a question we're inevitably asked. One we're not trained in how to answer. And one that - most times - I think most pelvic rehab practitioners get wrong."How long until I get better?"First we think about what they are really asking. It's more about "are you the right person to help me" or "what is working with you going to look like."And we often do our patients a disservice when we try and guess. Because the truth is - there's no way to know after just the first visit!So how do we answer it instead?Ask them back (flip it and reverse it)"I'm actually not sure, BUT..."Map out their plan of care and phases of treatment so they know where they are goingIf you can do this well, and with confidence, 99% of patients will be satisfied and understand where they are going with treatment.Had any challenges with this?
