Abstract
It has already been shown, with many examples, how, in addition to the functional analysis of a movement sequence, expressed in ‘therapist language’, we need a formula for the instructions to get a patient’s therapeutic exercises under way. This can best be achieved through the medium of ‘patient language’. The words, gestures and actual physical handling of the patient which make up this language are simple and comprehensible; they are easy to follow because of the way they speak to the patient’s kinaes-thetic, tactile, auditory and visual perception.
