Dialogue 1
PT:      Yes.  What seems to be the problem?
P:        I have a terrible pain in my back.  I can't walk.
PT:      How long have you had this problem?
P:        For two days.  I think I strained my back during an exercise.  It's killing me.
PT:      Have you taken anything for it?
P:        No, nothing.
PT:      OK.  Please lie down on this bed.  You can support your knees
           on the triangular pillow by putting it under your knees.
P:        Like this?
PT:      That's right.  We will put a hot pack under your back to ease the pain.
           If it gets too hot, let us know.



Dialogue 2
PT:      How are we doing here?
P:        You know, that hot pack feels really good.
PT:      Now turn and lie on your side.  We will start electrical therapy.
P:        Will it hurt?
PT:      You will feel a tingling sensation.  You won't feel any pain.  Just relax.
PT:      Now how does this feel?  Do you feel the electrical pulse?
P:        No.  I hardly feel anything(거의 아무것도 못 느끼겠어요).
PT:      Maybe it's too weak.  I'll raise it up(강도를 높이겠습니다).  How about now?
P:        Yes.  Much better.  Good!
PT:      It will be another five minutes.

(Later)
PT:      We will do infrared therapy.  It will ease the pain considerably
           (통증이 많이 완화될 거예요).
P:        Thank you.
