How to avoid feeling burnt out as a physiotherapist

Hey guys my name is Masud and in today’s video I’ll be sharing my view on how you can avoid feeling burnt out as a physiotherapist.
I feel it is a common issue that doesn’t get talked about often amongst the medical world but in physiotherapy, especially in areas such as MSK, because of the highly repetitive nature of cases you’re seeing.
After a few years, doing the same things can definitely wear down your motivation to perform as a physiotherapist and deliver the best outcomes for patients.
If this is you right now watching this video you’ll know what I mean.
And trust me I’ve been there.
So I guess from personal experience, I know this is usually when I need to take a break from what I’m doing.
I would perhaps consider taking some annual leave or if you don’t have any annual leave, try to think about why you are stressed or feel clinically exhausted.
It is important to acknowledge these feelings you have as they can manifest into something greater like anxiety or depression.
Speak to a colleague or friend about it.
If you have a supportive clinical line manager it is best to chat to them as well.
There’s no reason you should have to manage this all on your own.
Below are a couple of articles which talk more on the topic and how you can manage better.
Hope it helps and as always thanks for watching!

Hi Damian, I don’t know about Italian universities. But U.K. will not. You have to start from scratch the degree

Hi ,
I am starting next month and I was wondering if there is anything I should know / learn prior to starting the course and what u would advice to benefit my start to Physio.
Thanks

Hi Lewis, not really is the answer to your question. If you wanted to though, start with names of muscles and their origins and insertion points. Do muscles of the shoulder, then knee, hip.
I made a video on how much anatomy you should know prior to the course here: th-cam.com/video/2FWfhVPIzuc/w-d-xo.html
Hope this helps you
