SPINE MODELS: HELPING OVERCOME THE “FEAR FACTOR”
Why do people avoid doctors? Sometimes, of course, they’re worried about the cost. But more often than not, those who prefer not to step foot into a doctor’s office are usually making their decision based on fear. Fear of what, you might ask?

As chiropractors, we want our patients to feel comfortable about the “why” of their pain and we need them to understand that we can address it in a helpful way. So, by using educational tools such as spine models, we give them the gift of understanding. The use of a spine model to teach about the body is essential in making patients feel both comfortable with AND confident about their course of treatment. Of course, not all spine models are created equal. The static models on the market do little to really show the workings of the spine. Patients can view the various parts of the spine that might be causing their pain but can’t see how those parts move. With a model like the Professional LxH from Dynamic Disc Designs (ddd), patients are treated to an amazingly realistic design that truly demonstrates spinal motion and what can go wrong when things aren’t lined up correctly or are otherwise functioning improperly. With knowledge, fear disappears. Patients no longer worry about that dreaded disease they read about on Google. Even if their situation is serious and requires a good deal of treatment, if they understand the how and why, they feel a sense of relief knowing that they are doing all they can to progress towards healing. Read how a chiropractor using Dynamic Disc Design’s incredible models, designed by Dr. Jerome Fryer, describes how these spine models can make patients feel better about the whole premise of chiropractic.
“Dr. Jerome, whether you realize it or not (am sure you do!), your DDD models have helped connect the doctor and client in a way that was never attainable before,” proclaims Dr. Barry Kluner. “Compared to generic ‘static’ models, your ‘dynamic’ models help us explain the intricate details of each client’s condition in an easier to understand concept that can be catered or customized to each individual client’s needs, whether technical or basic,” he continues.
“Your models have re-established the vital importance of the doctor / client communication relationship, dramatically bridging the gap for both to have a common understanding of the condition, the process ahead, and the targeted outcomes towards health and wellness for life. Simply perfect.”
