Unreal Results for Physical Therapists and Athletic Trainers

The Fundamental Attribution Error and Why You May be the Problem, Not Your Client


Listen Later

I recently posted a thread about the tendency toward settling for mediocrity in our profession. This is actually exactly what keeps us from feeling confident in not only guaranteeing results for our clients but also referring them to other practitioners or back to the doctor for red flags, and advocating for different answers.

You can get caught up in saying things like:
"Some people just don't get better"

"It takes time"

"You can't help everyone"

"Pain is complex"

"You can't fix things overnight"

"The patient doesn't do their HEP"

"The patient doesn't manage their stress"

"You will have to live with some degree of pain or limited function because the tissue has changed forever"

But in reality, it DOES NOT take weeks and or months to solve their problems, and these beliefs all stem from average or below average (mediocre) results.
 
In this episode, I unpack what I mean when I say I can guarantee results in 1-3 sessions. Why you need to be able to guarantee results too and how when we make judgments on our patients we often fall into to a psychological tendency called the fundamental attribution law.

Considering the viscera as a source of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction is a great way to ensure a more true whole body approach to care, however it can be a bit overwhelming on where to start, which is exactly why I created the Visceral Referral Cheat Sheet.
