Previous research has investigated this problem in physiotherapy fields, but as yet has not been undertaken in an osteopathic setting. This study attempted to compare verbal and diagrammatic PRA prescription in the Victoria University Osteopathic Medicine Clinic (VUOMC) to new patients at this clinic. This study demonstrated that diagrammatic PRA prescription was more successful than verbal presricption when used at the VUOMC. The use of the diagrammatic PRA modality should assist the osteopathic practitioner to gain greater compliance and potentially better outcomes for the patient. This minor thesis was written by a post-graduate student as part of the requirements of the Master of Health Science (Osteopathy) program. 2005 published public 29 Victoria University School of Health Sciences cmaster includes references: pp. 20-21 FALSE
