Spinal Cord Model Systems Ideal for Physiotherapists
Every day, countless individuals around the world depend on the work of a physiotherapist (or physical therapist) to help them feel better. People that seek assistance from physical therapists include those who are recovering from injuries or those who’ve been sick or in hospital and need to regain their strength. Physical therapists work with people of all ages from newborns to the very elderly, offering different tasks that will eventually allow these individuals to be able to function well in everyday life.Physiotherapists work in all sorts of different settings, from private practices and outpatient clinics to hospitals, schools/colleges, and fitness centers. They assist in rehabilitation, health maintenance, and injury prevention. As such, they use a variety of tools to help promote optimal physical function for their patients/clients.
Many physical therapists regularly see patients who are having issues with their spine or spinal cord and often find themselves having to explain to their patients the anatomy of the spine and how things have gone wrong for that patient in particular. That’s where spinal cord model systems can be a huge help for the physiotherapist.
Though the physical therapist is no doubt intelligent and well-versed in the workings of the spine, it’s often quite difficult to explain to the layperson the particulars of discs and bulges and degenerative diseases and all the other issues that can be related to that part of the body. With a detailed spinal cord model from Dynamic Disc Design’s huge selection of 3-D movable models, patient education becomes much simpler and the patient leaves with a clearer understanding of why they need physical therapy and how it will assist them in leading a simpler, more pain-free life.
Consider, for example, Dynamic Disc Design’s best-selling Professional LxH model, with its flexible and totally herniating (or prolapsing) nucleus pulposus and realistic 2-part intervertebral disc with 6 degrees of freedom. This is a model that can truly allow patients to see the spine up close and experience just how each part of the spine works both in their favor and – when injured or sick – against them. The physiotherapist can use the totally dynamic model to explain the advantages of therapy and what it will accomplish. As a result, the patient can feel confident that they’re doing what’s needed to recover from their spine-related issue.
While many physiotherapists resort to just speaking to their patients about their therapy or perhaps showing them a drawing, those who invest in spinal cord model systems for their practice will clearly come out a step ahead, and when patients develop confidence in their medical professional, they recommend that individual or practice to others who need their services. That means investing in ddd’s models helps you build your business with referrals from satisfied clients.
For many physiotherapists who’ve already purchased them, the models have paid for themselves over and over again and they couldn’t be more pleased with how they’ve allowed them to connect with patients.
“My clinic relies heavily on the patient education process, as I believe all clinics should. I have not come across any anatomical model that depicts spinal mechanics as well as this one does, says physiotherapist Dan Kelly. “It saves me time, makes detailed explanation easy, increases patient compliance and ultimately, produces better results,” he adds. “I recommend it highly to any clinician who works with the spine.”
