PT peeps!!

Rehabilitation Treatments for Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy
* Clinicians should provide patients with patient-centered and individualized education on their condition, pain management options, activity modification, and self-management.
* Clinicians should consider the individual’s level of health literacy, personal beliefs and goals, and relevant psycho-social factors.
* Clinicians should prescribe or recommend an active rehabilitation exercise program, which may include motor control and/or resistance training exercises with various loads, as an initial treatment to reduce pain and disability in adults with rotator cuff tendinopathy.
* Clinicians may perform spinal and/or upper limb manual therapy alone or in combination with other interventions such as exercise, to help reduce pain in adults with rotator cuff tendinopathy in the short term. Manual therapy can include soft tissue techniques and/or joint mobilizations or
manipulations.

According to AI (I agree to this)

"Organizations that can award post-nominals include accredited educational institutions (colleges and universities) for academic degrees, professional bodies for professional certifications, and organizations that grant honorary degrees or awards." KEYWORD HERE IS "ACCREDITED"

I just want Filipino physios to be more aware. An organization can only award post nominals if they are "accredited" by a governing body.

If you get a post nominal for every course you complete, by the time you are 50, you would have tens of those added to your name. Does this seem right? This will de-valuate the post nominals

Its like a school, an org can open any school they want but if not recognized by Dep Ed or CHED, it really doesnt matter.

You can write all these letters but if you cannot find anything regardless of how you google it ... then it really doesnt mean anything... hehehe

To the orgs offering lifelong learning activities.. teach, enhance the knowledge and skills of Pinoys, but do not encourage false credentials

To our Physios, empower yourselves, research before you sign up. Information is at fingertips. Use you time and money wisely.

Goodluck dear lifelong learners!
