Stopping gives you time to ask Bob if he can tolerate a little more or if you should stay where you are. Keeping Bob's trust and avoiding agony is paramount for success.Rebecca Duttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09004104301521792927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683912290300109544.post-10396148214074036312012-08-19T17:15:49.817-04:002012-08-19T17:15:49.817-04:00Love the picture of Bob enjoying his cup of Starbu...Love the picture of Bob enjoying his cup of Starbucks coffee. He looks happy and content there.<br /><br />I have to disagree with the OT about no pain no gain. In my opinion if he can't tolerate the pain and is in agony with the forced movements, then it's too much. I agree with you, in that he will get to the point of refusing to take part in the OT if it continues.

By the way there are three zones of pain. 1. The pain-free zone that usually doesn't change anything. 2. The zone of discomfort which a person can tolerate. 3. The zone of agony which is counterproductive because muscles cannot relax here. The trick to staying in the discomfort zone is moving very slowly the instant you feel resistance. I bet you use this trick when you do Bob's neck range of motion.Rebecca Duttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09004104301521792927noreply@blogger.com
