2+ y ago31:28

31:28

Does a day go by when you don't either see a "debate" occurring on socials, or even find yourself preparing to wade in on one side or another? Especially in the world of massage and manual therapy, this seems to have become the norm and we at The Massage Collective certainly like to participate too! But on reflection, what does this achieve? What d…

Session 31 - Communication in Clinic, with The LD Physio 52:40

3y ago52:40

52:40

Communication skills. One of those "soft skills" that we often give no more than a fleeting thought to - until we realise we lack them in a given context.
