info_outlineWe’re heading into the holiday season, when your patients will either keep progressing with their rehab program, or give their exercises a miss for a while and risk an increase in symptoms, skip appointments in the new year, and disappear off your list.

- How to keep your patients engaged and progressing over the holiday period.
- If you’re going away, how to effectively keep in contact with patients or hand patients over to other therapists, and avoid losing them over the Christmas period.
- How to help kids and young athletes stay active and manage load over the holidays, to stay strong and healthy and avoid overuse injuries early next year.
Prepare your patients now, and set yourself up for a successful holiday season and new year with this free mentoring session.
