Following from the last post...
Lately I have really been thinking hard about what David Butler, PT has been speaking of for a long while now. The idea of therapists' crucial role as linguists - how we speak to our patients and how we speak to each other. Our words are essential tools in educating and providing therapeutic value. Thoughts are nerve impulses that affect the neurochemistry within our nervous system. The words we use affect how our patient's think/believe/feel about their pain states.
