Hi Kevin. I have no problem with any group in particular. In the
States health care is almost a free- for- all, that is ANY ONE can
claim that THEIR whatever can treat whatever. When scientific
methodology is brought into the discussion, the persons involved
invoke PARADIGM shifts, and uncertainty principles, and similar
metaphores! This by persons who would not recognize a factorial
analysis from a chi square, or what is the meaning of an element.
(Not the the latter are important in healing). I think that individual
therapists bring into the therapy session a great deal. (See Buber's
I AND THOU). Variables which are are not easily, but will be,
measured. So the entry to the system may be an ITB band 'strech'
, but the indirect influence on movement, while being formidable
escapes the eye of the practitioner- entrusting ALL the outcome to
a simple input. When thing don't work this becomes a real
problem: is it the treatment, the analysis, patient co-operation and
the like. Have a nice holiday season.
