Pay for the expertise, not the minutes.
Affordability is a huge factor in choosing a Physiotherapist and it’s a privilege to have access. But not all clinicians or treatments are created equal.
Do you want to go in twice a week for 8 weeks and blow through your yearly allotment - or would you rather use just a portion of it over a few sessions.
Do you want to spend your entire benefits amount and not see any results - or would you rather use it sparingly and gain the insight and tools you need to get yourself better.
Do you want to use your resources on someone who doesn’t show you how to help yourself or care if you make progress or not?
Value is perceived differently between people - but next time you’re selecting a healthcare provider, don’t simply add up the session fees and times, but rather look at who you’re working with and what they can do for you.
Last question - how do you invest in your health?
