Client and Therapist PartnershipTo achieve the best possible outcomes, the client and healthcare provider mustshare complementary knowledge and authority in the healthcare process(Holman & Lorig 2004).Effective care for chronic traumatic scars requires a partnership between themassage therapist (the MT) and client, working together to develop goodstrategies for management over time, as rehabilitation from a traumatic injurycan be a lifelong process.A collaborative process that supports the perspectives and experiences of theclient, as the experts on their own lives and bodies and what they feel orexperience, along with the therapist’s knowledge and expertise, will achieve themost effective and comprehensive outcomes. This is particularly evident whenworking with chronic presentations, as the client knows most about theconsequences they are experiencing as a result of the traumatic event andsubsequent traumatic scars. Client knowledge and input is a must for guidingsound management over time.The client will be responsible for daily management, behavior changes,emotional adjustments and accurate reporting of changes, such as improvementsor set-backs. In addition to the delivery of safe, effective and ethical care, theMT is responsible for providing encouragement, relevant information,meaningful activity or exercise recommendations and useful strategies forimplementation.When roles and responsibilities are properly executed, a true client-centeredapproach is created and more effective self care is achieved (Holman & Lorig2004).
