Patients often present to the clinic with a variety of preconceived beliefs and perceptions that will shape their experience.
The beliefs that we hold are often critical and essential to the identity we display. But what happens when those beliefs are built from irrational theories and are detrimental towards their health?
As health care practitioners, it is not only important for us to help patients make sense of their pain but it is pertinent that we address any maladaptive belief guiding them towards a more logical way of thinking.
However, if you really think about how you came to believe the things you feel are important, you would know it didn’t happen overnight.
So don’t expect the same for your patients. Instead, develop a process where you slowly integrate new thoughts and ideas into their mind allowing them to rationalize them into new beliefs.

👉Add Adequate Water and Nutrients - As the patient starts to become skeptical, utilize contextual factors to slowly add in support for a new belief.
Keep it Cared For - Continue supporting 👉any new beliefs by helping your patient rationalize their initial experience and thought process justifying why it may have been incorrect
