Matt and Allie are back with this month's clinical article(s)! This month Matt pulled together three separate articles that cover repairing, testing, and strengthening the ACL as it relates to sensorimotor dysfunction. The first article dives into what sensorimotor dysfunction is and how ACL injuries affect it. They also found that repairing a patient's ligament, instead of replacing it, decreases the probability of patients needing surgery on their other knee. Hear about how they compare a patient's function based on their visual reliance. The second article tests ACL improvement and early implementation of treating/ testing the patient's proprioception. The third article is a case study where a patient's improvement in PT was being held back by his own brain. His therapists threw in a few distractions to keep his brain work while his body is exercising, and his confidence and functionality improved significantly. Read all three articles here:1. https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/josptcases.2025.00892.https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.127253. https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.12726Did you know that you don't need a doctor's prescription to receive physical therapy?

I'm so glad you're here to take a listen to Rachel's stories of her grandmother's gardens in Zimbabwe and her life growing up in Australia.Throughout her life, Rachel has travelled and lived in London, Hong King and Tel Aviv. Now she lives in Manhattan and says she "pretty much lives for cooking and entertaining.  The history of food, it's culture and migration, as well as its ability to bring people together over a diverse and lively table is why I love what I do."  It's been ten years since she and her co-founders, Lisa Mendelson and Monica Molenaar, began Seed + Mill.As a little girl, Rachel's has fond memories of running through her grandparent's gardens in Zimbabwe, climbing avocado and mango trees. This was the beginning of her passion for what she enjoys today. What she began to understand as she got a little older was her grandparents experience immigrating to Africa from Prague, formerly referred to as the capital city of Czechoslovakia.  Today, Prague is the capital of the Czech Republic.  Her grandparents were Holocaust survivors and fled Prague in order to begin a new life. Jane ,Rachel's mother, was born and lived in Zimbabwe until she was about eighteen years old. Jane eventually fell in love, got married, moved to London then settled in Sydney, Australia with her husband. My guest shares wonderful stories of her mother, Jane.  "She was incredibly generous, passionate about many things, loved to share whatever she was interested in, whether with her family, or share with her friends and neighbors. Whatever she was excited about she loved to share with other people. She was a horticulturalist and a physical therapist." Jane also worked in obstetrics helping pregnant women and post-natal mothers.In looking back at Jane's childhood, "it was different from what it looked like from the outside. Her parents had been traumatized because of their experience as Holocaust survivors.  They were trying to rebuild their lives, but it had taken a toll on all of them. That experience, Rachel shares, "impacted mom's sense of identity."Jane was brave and resilient, according to Rachel. "She longed for nurture and really deep and meaningful relationships with people. She received and she gave that encouragement in equal measures."When asked if Rachel felt safe and secure in her home growing up, her response was, "I always felt safe and secure and felt lots of love from my mother. In lots of ways, in an unconscious and  unspoken way, I was always worried about her mental health. I could feel that generational trauma from my grandmother to my mother and now probably to me. And I am mindful of this to my own daughter."This is such a loving and beautiful story of women who loved one another unconditionally, yet there were barriers that couldn't be broken.Though Rachel's mother has passed away, Rachel says she speaks with her everyday. She visited her mother in Australia several time in her last remaining monthsand weeks.  As she was by her mother's bedside, she wrote her most recent cook book "Sesame."   She turned in her transcript for the book and the very next day, her mother passed away.Rachel is so proud of all that her mother did for she and her younger sister. "She was always committed and worked really hard. She filled her time and days and relationships to not feel her own pain."Thank you for being so open and honest Rachel.  It was an absolutely pleasure to meet your mum through your eyes and your heart.Contact Information:Instagram: seedandmillIf you're looking for information about Rachel's NEW Cookbook "Sesame" click on this link and then click on "cookbook" on the top left banner.

In this episode of What's Best For The Patient Is Best For Business, Jerry sits down with Jason Wambold, MSPT and VP of Operations at OnusOne, to tackle one of the most persistent and challenging issues in physical therapy: clinician compensation.Jason shares his personal story of nearly leaving the PT profession due to crippling student debt and a compensation model that didn't reflect his value. This experience led him to co-found OnusOne, a company revolutionizing how rehab professionals get paid by creating transparency and aligning incentives between practice owners and their clinical staff.Jerry and Jason dive deep into the flaws of traditional salary and hourly pay models, explaining how they often suppress earnings and create misaligned expectations. They discuss how the OnusOne software platform empowers practice owners to build customizable, data-driven compensation models that allow therapists to see the direct connection between their work and their paycheck.Key Takeaways:• The Transparency Problem: Most therapists don't understand the link between the revenue they generate and their compensation, a fundamental disconnect unique to physical therapy compared to other healthcare professions.• Unlock Earning Potential: Moving to a variable compensation model allows clinicians to directly control their income, giving them a clear path to achieve their financial goals without having to ask for a raise.• A Powerful Hiring & Retention Tool: Implementing a system like OnusOne is a significant differentiator in the interview process, allowing owners to show candidates exactly how they can achieve their desired salary.• The Calibration Point: The success of any model hinges on the owner first understanding their business's financial "zero point"—the minimum revenue needed to cover all expenses—before building plans for their team.• Change Management is Key: Successfully transitioning a team requires a long-game approach, offering choice (including a safe, 100% salary option), and comprehensively testing models to build and maintain trust.

In this episode of What's Best For The Patient Is Best For Business, Jerry sits down with Seth Turnoff, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Custom Medical Marketing (CMM).They dive deep into the critical, often overlooked connection between marketing, sales, and patient experience in a private practice. Seth shares his unique perspective from his "Jerk Store" series on LinkedIn, where he breaks down bad sales outreach, and explains how his firm uses "searchless marketing" to target ideal patients through demographics and psychographics.The conversation is a masterclass in why treating your front desk as a revenue-generating sales center, not just a logistics hub, is the key to sustainable growth. Jerry and Seth discuss the downstream chaos of poor lead handling, the danger of counting leads as revenue, and why the best marketing in the world fails without a system to convert interest into arrived, paying patients.Key Takeaways:• Marketing and Sales are a Partnership, Not the Same Thing: Effective marketing generates awareness, but a dedicated sales process is required to convert that interest into scheduled appointments. They must work in tandem, with data flowing back from sales to inform and improve marketing efforts.• Your Front Desk is Your Sales Engine: Stop viewing your front desk team as merely schedulers. Empower them with the time, training, and systems to have meaningful conversations, set proper expectations, and gather crucial data on every lead—whether they schedule or not.• Track Everything to Stop Guessing: You cannot improve what you do not measure. Implementing a simple lead tracker is essential to understand where your best patients come from, identify leaks in your funnel, and make data-driven decisions instead of emotional ones.• Better Leads Lead to Better Conversions: The ultimate way to improve conversion rates is to attract higher-quality, better-fitting leads through targeted marketing. This reduces pressure on the sales team and creates a more efficient and profitable practice.• Intentionality Creates Patient Success: Every patient touchpoint—from the first phone call and the check-in process to the clinical experience and billing—must be intentionally designed. Reverse-engineering the ideal patient journey ensures a seamless, professional experience that builds trust and loyalty.Tune in for an honest, no-fluff conversation filled with actionable strategies to align your marketing, sales, and operations to serve more patients and build a healthier business.

Our discussion offers practical strategies for helping patients integrate physical activity into their daily routines, with a focus on starting gradually and maintaining consistency. We also address the heightened cardiovascular risks associated with rheumatoid arthritis and how targeted exercise interventions can mitigate these risks. Finally, we delve into fall prevention tactics and the use of technology and interdisciplinary care teams to set achievable, patient-centered goals that physical therapists can effectively support.

Welcome to The Healing Place Podcast! I am your host, Teri Wellbrock. You can listen in on Pandora, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, Deezer, Amazon Music, and more, or directly on my website at www.teriwellbrock.com/podcasts/. You can also catch our insightful interview on YouTube. Bio: Dr. Devin DeGreif I am a Change consultant. I am also a Doctor of Physical Therapy, intuitive healer, transformational coach and now author. After experiencing my own trauma, grief and pain, I transformed those experiences into my passion to guide others to harness their natural abilities and invoke their power to truly live. Having taken the journey from deep places of grief to resounding joy myself. I deeply revere the capacity for each person to live a delight filled life, truly embodied in their being. I am a Physical Therapist by trade and a Healer at heart. My personal life story has been one that could have made me lose all hope. All hope in life, all hope in myself and all hope of the possibility of life getting any better. When I was a kid, I broke my tailbone 3 times. As a result, as I grew up I had horrible pelvic pain, unexplained urinary leakage, constipation, pain with my bowel movements and more. I was told by my gynecologist that everything was fine and I was “normal”. This didn't feel normal to me.  Over time I began to develop increasingly more back pain and knee pain. When I was 18, I had my first knee surgery then the following year a surgery on my other knee. I was better in some sense but worse off in many. The only thing that remotely helped me at the time was strength training. It felt like I had to hold my body together with my muscles in order to function. This led me to get my undergraduate degree in Exercise Science.  The only options provided to me by modern medicine health care providers were more surgeries and pain medication. That did not feel right for me, so I carried on strength training. Then, to add to it all, when I was 23 years old my mom was murdered. Yes, my mom was wretchedly murdered! I know, it's a shock. It was for me. I write all about it in my book “Good Grief: The Journey from Grief to Joy” coming out late spring 2025. After that shocking experience, my health challenges not only encompassed my physical body but my spirit! I was depressed, numb, tormented and tattered. I HATED being in my body!  Basically y'all, I had to take my journey into my own hands. No one else was able to truly help me.  I began with Physical Therapy school becoming a Pelvic Health and Orthopedic specialist. Thankfully, after PT school I found out about visceral manipulation which is where I learned how we stuff our emotions that are unprocessed into our organs. Also, how traumatic injuries can also be transmitted into the organs. THIS was when things started to really unfold, for the better. I then also began training in craniosacral therapy and meditation.

In this timely episode of What's Best For The Patient Is Best For Business, host Jerry Durham is joined by two powerhouse voices in healthcare: Angela Diaz, PT, VP of Market Development at TailorCare, and Dana Strauss, PT, DPT, a physical therapist turned health policy strategist.Recorded in the wake of CMS's monumental 2025 Physician Fee Schedule proposed rule, this conversation is a masterclass in translating complex policy into actionable business strategy. Jerry, Angela, and Dana dissect the new regulations and mandatory models, moving beyond the headlines of reimbursement cuts to uncover the significant opportunities hidden within for forward-thinking physical therapy practices.They break down the new ambulatory specialty model for low back pain, the WISER model aimed at reducing wasteful spending, and the TEAM model holding hospitals accountable for 30-day post-discharge care. The discussion provides a clear roadmap for PTs to pivot from being siloed service providers to becoming indispensable, collaborative partners in a value-based care system.Key Takeaways:• Why the conversion factor is only a small piece of the reimbursement puzzle and how PTs/OTs were inadvertently grouped with specialists, leading to a potential negative impact.• How to leverage data to demonstrate your value to physicians and health systems participating in new mandatory models (like the ambulatory specialty model for low back pain), making you a sought-after partner instead of an ancillary service.• The critical difference between capitation and true value-based care, and why attaching your payment to quality outcomes is the only sustainable path forward.• A practical strategy for engaging referring physicians by focusing on their pain points and asking, "What can I do to help you be successful in this new model?"• Why the future of PT isn't about doing less but about providing the right care at the right time—including phone calls, remote monitoring, and self-care guidance—to improve outcomes and reduce the total cost of care for a population.Tune in for an empowering conversation that will change your perspective from one of uncertainty to one of opportunity, proving that by focusing on collaboration and patient outcomes, you can future-proof your practice and thrive in the new landscape of healthcare.

She takes pride in listening to her patients' complete stories, creating a holistic pathway to optimal health and empowerment.  Cristi has a Bachelor's of Health and Science Degree from Baylor University and a Master of Physical Therapy Degree from Texas State University.

With a background as a board-certified orthopedic and sports physical therapist, Todd shares his journey from traditional clinical practice to the forefront of digital health innovation—including his role in co-founding Physera, a telehealth startup later acquired by Omada.Jerry and Todd dive deep into the critical role of patient engagement in modern healthcare, exploring how technology can enhance outcomes while maintaining high-quality care. Todd breaks down key insights from his research, revealing how simple actions—like regular messaging between visits—can compound into significant improvements in patient adherence and clinical results. They also discuss the importance of data in proving value, the evolving landscape of telehealth, and why physical therapists must embrace digital tools to stay ahead.Key Takeaways:• Patient engagement drives outcomes: Each additional weekly message from a PT increases patient compliance with home exercises by 11%—and these effects multiply over time.• Early intervention matters: Starting care within 24 hours of sign-up boosts long-term engagement and success.• Tech is just a tool: The real skill lies in knowing when and how to use digital platforms to enhance—not replace—clinical expertise.• Data is non-negotiable: Accreditation and payer trust require proof of impact. PTs must measure outcomes rigorously to demonstrate their value.• The patient's core needs: Clear diagnosis, prognosis, and defined roles (patient + provider) are the foundation of trust and retention.Todd's research underscores a powerful truth: what's best for patients is best for business.
