14/10

Been a little slack with my blog, have written it down but not posted anything as of yet. So here goes.......

The first week was mainly just observational and learning the ropes so not much Rx was implemented.

1. On Monday 14/10 a pt presented who had received traction from the previous week. pt reported feeling better from last wks Rx, but still very sore R LB. pt has chronic LB pain and comes in for traction wkly.
Rx: traction-20min, then a heat pack was applied was 15min.

2. I just observed as i haven't seen a traction machine in action before.

3. I was a little nervous as it was the first pt i had seen!

4+5- N/A

6. I was happy with how the Rx went and was interested in the traction machine and its uses/benefits.
