When I am teaching a new idea, technique or principle to a patient I have found handouts to be really helpful. The whole point is for carry-over from therapy to everyday life and since I am not there all the time, a quick picture and explanation has proved very helpful. Here is a link I use all the time that I hope you find useful!
Ohio State University Medical Center Patient Education Materials
Some of my favorites are:
*Do's and Don'ts with Low Back Pain
*Using Equipment to Help in Daily Activities After Your Total Hip Replacement
*Activities to Improve Fine Motor Coordination in Hands
*Putting on a Button Up Shirt with One Hand
