The Language We Use, Part 2 (Football and Therapy, W-0, L-5)

My previous post on the "Language We Use" garnered a number of replies on other sites, though not as much as I had hoped. I feel like I may have hit a raw nerve in many.I believe that I, like many of you, get so caught up in the enthusiasm of learning a new modality that we forget to touch base with reality. It is not my point to trash anyone's beliefs or manner of explanation. I simply ask whether you have ever stepped back and analyzed the language that you use to explain your work.A number of years back I took a trashing on SomaSimple.com for my defense of the language I spoke. Based on the number of hits that thread received, some of you may have read it. My defense of Myofascial Release was quite weak, as I was only repeating the words I was taught. Certainly not the best way to defend a subject. This experience was a turning point for me, in many ways. My language has changed since that time, and so has my treatment.Has your language changed?I'm a week late on reporting, but another loss by the Bills... It seems like that may be a pattern.
