Therapist handouts are worse than useless for most clients
After 11 years as a PT aide, I've watched people toss those laminated exercise sheets in the trash on the way out of the parking lot, so why do we keep pretending printouts teach anyone anything when a quick phone video of the movement does 20 times more?

Therapists cling to paper because it feels official and productive. But a folded handout is just a guilt trip with clip art. Phone videos show the actual movement, the speed, the tiny adjustments that matter. At least patients watch those before they delete them.
