I AM NOT IN PAIN ANYMORE WHY DO I NEED TO CONTINUE TO GO TO PHYSIO?
On average, 20 percent of physiotherapy clients in Canada stop attending physiotherapy sessions after 3 sessions mainly due to relief of their symptoms. In many cases a lack of knowledge and self-management strategies can bring you back to square one.
This is where the Plan of Care comes in! The plan of care is a comprehensive resource that you will fill out with your physiotherapist during your assessment that details the steps necessary to fulfill your goals for the short AND long term. It encompasses key physical issues, recommended treatments, and the duration of rehab needed.
Your physiotherapist will also refer back to the Plan of Care throughout your rehab journey to ensure your goals are being met, or if any adjustments need to be made.
Ultimately the plan of care helps you navigate through your rehabilitation with more clarity, and is tailored to put your goals first to help you become pain free and STAY pain free.
