Cash Based Practices | Why Patients Do Not Do Their Home Program

Alright, so Sally calls us and she says, I don't have time to do my homework. I'm just overwhelmed and I don't want to come in, so cancel my appointment because I didn't have time to do my homework. Okay. Alright, Sally, that's actually more of a reason for you to come in so that we can truly figure out what your day-to-day is like and then make a routine off of that. And that we can truly start attaching different habits that we're asking you to do to habits that you already have created. But let's integrate it a little bit better so that you don't feel overwhelmed and that you feel that it's more doable and that we can continue to progress you to your goal. If you just don't do the stuff and you decide not to come in today, that's actually going to digress us and slow down the progress. Instead, I would highly recommend you keeping that appointment, coming in. Let's refigure out a different strategy with your therapist, and that way you can continue to progress.
