Self Check in

Perform a self assessment to dictate your next steps.

Why this matters:

Pain management is simple. Focus on the activities/stretches that improve your pain and avoid the activities/positions that make it worse. But you can’t quite figure that out if you don’t complete a daily check in. This is especially crucial when you are conveying this to a healthcare provider. The more information you provide the better. After receiving enough information, we’ll find a way to help you recover.

Action steps:

Ask yourself, how are you feeling today? Better, worse or the same? What activities did you do yesterday that could have impacted this? How about sleeping position?
