Adventures in Physical Therapy

What up world!! This is another adventure though my internship! So whats new?!?! uh...Im learning thats whats new!! I am learning sooooo much! I think this internship is a life changing experience because it shows me how real this profession is. It may be a day in the clinic where a good 20 plus clients come in!! 20 clients all needing and hour worth of attention going through exercises over and over and over and having to deal with it plus all the other things like feelings, emotions, files not in the right place, things going wrong, running out of products, making sure files are pulled for the next day, maintaining the facility and making sure its clean etc. etc. there are soooo many things I need to be doing and so much that is expected of me and so on and so forth!

I love the it though its fire!! I am refreshing my anatomy game I am getting heavier in my masseuse game! I am seeing my profession I am getting my game up heavy!!! Just seeing the world of physical therapy watching our head PT run evals and just seeing her help people and also accepting that you will not be able to be help everyone. Its just a real interesting environment. And I even have my own patient and I worry about them and if they are getting better and if I am working them out correctly or if they are improving etc. etc. But, in other news I will be starting massage therapy school in January! (crosses fingers and prays) I have already kicked the game in gear and the massage table is on deck and I been puttin that work in heavy!! Got my beards massage book in a few days ago so I am just reading and getting my knowledge up! I am hopefully gonna be working with a few masseusses as well! If I can keep all this up before I get to Massage school I will take that ish by storm! But yea holla at ya boi cause im on my job and we can work out some deals and help me get my weight up and help you feel me!!

Adventures in Physical Therapy

So this is a hamstring stretch (obviously)...But, did you know that tight hamstrings, IT Bands (Illiotibial Band, google it) and a tight hip can lead to lower back pain? Well, it does. Now this does not mean go into some super stretching frenzy cause your saying dang I have lower back pain. But, I recommend that you just start getting more stretches in for your day. One before bed, middle of the day, and before bed. I think those are the easiest ways to get it in. (3 times a day is the general recommendation)

And if you happen to be someone who only works out (exercises) and does not take the time to stretch this will eventually catch up with you. So hey, advice for the day...STRETCH MORE!!

Yeah, these are the few mini pieces of advice you will hear our head Physical Therapist (PT) tell a patient. This interning stuff is not easy at all. Its rough days and long days a majority of the time. Our head PT is always under stress because its more than just working out with a patient. There is paper work, office duties, meetings, etc. etc. So a PT's job just does not just stop at a patient. And its times where the head PT gets crunk on me and I have to really keep my Paul Lawrence Dunbar game up ya feel me...And I get heated when people come at me crazy...but, I have to just listen and keep it moving. She is usually happier when the Physical therapy assistant is there because I guess she can bounce more work and more clients off to him as oppose to me. But, none the less the experience has been fresh.

I have been learning a lot of stuff. Already giving people mini advice...nothing to fancy but just enough to help them out. Its usually stuff about posture and ergonomics (google it). You would be surprise how horrible our posture is as people. You are probably slouching right now as you read this...(now straighten up lol) But yea, there will be more tales to come from the clinic. Oh, and if you think I am SUPER RANDOM you should see what they think...cause they have never seen someone so RANDOM before so they just be laughing they behinds off at me and my foolishness. But yea, im out for now...Oh yea I got my massage table so the game is about to be a smooth rap! Get at me!

And I guess that black guy looks pretty funny but thats usually me and will eventually be me!! It will take a long time but I will make it happen!

I know the other two pictures are clearly jokes lol! But the reason why you may not see me this semester is because I am doing my internship at a Physical Therapy Clinic. Its a lot, a lot, a lot of work. But, I do love it and it is quite exciting. Besides all the desk work and the filing of papers or what not I am watching evaluations of patients, assisting people with exercises, and all that other jazz. My days start at 7:30 am and ends at 5:30 pm not every day but a good portion of the week. But yea this is like 12 credits of a semester for me so I take no classes or what not. So its crazy not being in classes all day and not seeing people but I guess its all for my future. But yea this is what I been up to. Nemo's Corner has not gone anywhere tho that is coming as soon as I can make something happen. Ya feel me! But yea yall get at me!

But this pic below might be something you may hear from a Physical Therapist. Ya dig!
