How long does it take to heal?

You must admit this is a common question. The unfortunate truth is the answer lies within the person as opposed to a technique or series of techniques. Too often healing time is given without careful consideration of ALL the individual variables. It's often used in marketing a product and/or protocol.   Even if you're a clinician with a lot of experience working with many different clients, healing time is relative to each person and their genetics/lifestyle - it varies widely depending on countless variables... think physical factors, biological factors and behavioral factors (optimistic, pessimistic, etc.).   The bottom line is that it isn't actually possible to know if any application helped heal the person faster, because we can never know how long it would have taken without it (something to think about)! So how do we answer? Test the person's current functional threshold, address their function relative to your observation, strive for greater efficiency in function (as opposed to how they feel), monitor each and every session, search for patterns using a functional mindset and answer accordingly to that unique individual - that's the answer in truth. Simply put, it depends :)
