Takeaways

Colby Beecham is a physical therapist with a focus on individualized care. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the patient's lifestyle in recovery. The thermostat analogy helps conceptualize patellofemoral pain management. Differentiating between patellar tendon pain and patellofemoral pain is crucial for treatment.

Strength conditioning knowledge is essential for effective rehabilitation. Lifestyle factors like nutrition and sleep significantly impact recovery. Colby is opening Onward Physical Therapy, focusing on out-of-network care. The future of physical therapy should bridge the gap between rehab and strength conditioning.
