    She will touch on such topics as:

    • You're gonna see how we test the clients and how it's performed with the hands on treatment, how we challenge and progress our exercise programs with our clients.
    • You'll learn how the exercises are advanced and how to queue those exercises, and then which exercises are given for the home exercise program.
    • Understand better on how to continue the treatment frequency or when to decrease the treatment free frequency, how to transition the care, and overcoming objections.

  • The Stretch Mobility Coach Curriculum: How it Can Help You as a Rehab Professional

    Are you a Rehab Professional who would like to be able to help more clients address their pain, injury and/or performance goals? Or are you a Physical Therapist looking for a set, step-by-step curriculum that will make getting into this business so much easier for you?

    Welcome to the "Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S" Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I will talk about The Stretch Mobility Coach curriculum, and reveal what is actually in the training program for a stretch mobility coach so that you can see how it's different from what you learned in a traditional setting and help you move forward with the next step in your professional career by becoming a stretch mobility coach.

    She will touch on such topics as:

    • A stretch mobility coach is a rehab professional that is providing preventative care to a client outside current-traditional physical therapy, occupational therapy, and athletic training.
    • The curriculum was developed to provide a rehab professional with the knowledge and the skills that they need to help customers with stretch, pain and tightness.
    • The training model instructs long term pain-relief programs to put the needed skilled care back into the hands of rehab providers, and allows a rehab professional to work at their own pace while learning a preventative care system that works to rebuild the musculoskeletal system.
    • The program is focused on helping a customer not have to go into surgery and how to prevent hip replacement, a knee replacement, or other shoulder replacements, rotator cuff, those types of surgeries that can be avoided.
    • You're gonna learn how to capture your client's success stories and how to empower them through care, and you're gonna learn how to sell your programs and provide integrity.

  • The Stretch Method: How It's Different From Everything Else You've Ever Tried

    Have you ever thought how Physio, PT, Chiropractic, ATC are different from each other? Some are better than others in providing the best service for their patients, but as a physio, who should you choose? What is the main difference between traditional physiotherapy and the stretch method? What is the difference between them? And why is The Stretch Method better than others?

    Welcome to the Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I will talk about how The Stretch Method isn't available through traditional physical therapy, chiropractic practices, or athletic training. It's important to know that The Stretch Method isn't the same as the other forms of manual therapy or performance enhancement; The Stretch Method provides a new way of approaching mobility problems that can improve your quality of life.

    She will touch on such topics as:

    • With The Stretch Method, therapists listen to the frustrations of the consumer, especially when people look for a relief in pain and tightness.
    • The focus on relieving pain while exercising when stretching is all about preventing injury.
    • The Stretch Method provides a proven formula that is comprehensive and keeps them away from reactive care by regaining deep muscle stability at every joint.
    • The Stretch Method does not replace the old traditional model, but it improves the old system while providing long-lasting pain relief and tightness to the patients.
    • The Stretch Method is a viable method to treat muscle tightness while reducing the pain and scar tissue around the specific muscle, ligament or joint.
    • The Stretch Method is a new, modern method of pain abolishment that improves and heals the body, instead of only numbing it temporarily, like the old method. The old traditional system of pain relief was an antiquated model that relied on dulling the patient's regular feeling while in fact not eliminating the actual issue in place, but merely slowing down its rate of regeneration.

  • What Becoming A Stretch Mobility Coach Can Do For You

    Most of us know that preventative care is better (and more profitable) than reactive care, but isn't the industry built around reactive care? What if you could change your business model to a preventative care model that rebuilds the musculoskeletal system and keeps your clients away from reactive care?

    Welcome to the Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I will talk about why being a Stretch Mobility Coach improves your clients’ health, and increases their potential to be the best version of themselves, and set yourself up for success in the future.

    She will touch on such topics as:

    • How to take a step away from reactive care, and instead focus on proactive care allowing you to live your life in a way that you can get on-top of your pain.
    • How to move into that preventative care model that rebuilds that musculoskeletal system and keeps the clients away from reactive care.
    • A cash-based model that would take away the clients’ pain and tightness, and be successful in preventing them from any surgeries that may come.
    • Allows rehab professionals the ability to work as an elite professional in the health & wellness industry.
    • How to incorporate what you learn in school, and put it into practice through a program that is successful.
    • How The Stretch Method program will give you an opportunity to witness how the treatment will be performed, how transition of care happens, and practice your hands on the skills that you’ve learned.

  • 10 Mistakes Most New Business Owners Make (And How to Avoid Them)

    Although launching your own business can be both thrilling and terrifying, those aren't the only feelings that new business owners experience. Entrepreneurship is a calling in life rather than just a career. New business owners frequently go through periods of dread, uncertainty, or enthusiasm. But how will you start a business through thorough marketing training and investing in yourself as a new business owner? How will your mindset change as you grow in the business industry? Do you think you can bridge the gap in the current healthcare system? 

    Welcome to the "Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S" Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I will talk about the unwrapping of the ten mistakes that a rehab professional or new business owner makes, which are directed at the mindset and how to unpack those mistakes in hopes that they can take a step to move their new business forward or take a step to open a business with the utmost confidence that they can succeed if they have the right mentorship. 

    She will touch on such topics as:

    • You don’t have to struggle in business if you have the right direction.
    • Most physical and occupational therapists stink at finances, marketing, and sales, which becomes a challenge for them to grow a business because a business owner needs to be good at their finances, not just on the clinical side.
    • Most business owners don’t want to spend more money on their business, which is a mistake because without investing in the business and in yourself, your business will not succeed at all. Investing in your business is the way that you need to make sure your business is successful.
    • As a business owner, you have to provide enough value for your initial visit, which sets up the stretch mobility coaches for success.
    • Most business owners don’t understand the fundamentals of business. Most of them would want to use the same forms as other physical therapy business owners, which is a mistake because the forms are meant to give you the data that you need to set you up for success in your consult and to establish boundaries and guidelines in the business.
    • Understanding your service and what a customer wants and making sure that your service is delivered meets and exceeds the customer’s expectation of care is going to be a good asset to your business.
    • Understanding how much money you put aside for your operation account becomes very necessary for successful business ownership.
    • Most new business owners and clinicians don’t know how to keep a customer and put them into a successful program that helps them successfully for the rest of their lives.
    • Help each other out, collaborate, and teach your business partners what they need to know so that each of you benefits your community. It is not just one profession that helps a client live their best life.
    • Promote your services through partnerships and collaboration.

  • How You Can Provide Value Care To Wellness Consumers

    Are you on a mission to help patients restore their mobility with some simple therapy? What effective strategies can bring more mobility and independence back into the lives of diagnosed patients living with physical limitations?

    Welcome to the “Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S” Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I will talk about how Stretch Mobility focuses on relieving pain and restoring function to the patients, and how this type of method works for patients to keep their body moving and live a better life. With the help of affiliation and referrals to other doctors you can become your own boss and help patients in a preventative way to keep them away from surgery that are not necessary.

    She will touch on such topics as:

    • Going for PT instead of surgery: avoiding the traditional route
    • The medical industry can seem quite dysfunctional. We're trying to change that by helping patients get personalized treatment options and avoiding the traditional route.
    • Case studies are an opportunity for your private practice to tell its story, which is so important when you are trying to communicate with potential customers. Use your case study to explain, prove and show the effectiveness of your service.
    • Be able to showcase what the stretch mobility outcome is to be and how to avoid surgery
    • Patients in need of healthcare services will be referred to you and will be looking for guidance on what treatments work best for them. They look for reliable sources to refer them to doctors, and institutions that will provide them with the best care.
    • Fill the gaps in the healthcare system by providing services in the community.

  • How StretchLabs Coming to Your Area Is A GREAT Opportunity For You, A Rehab Professional

    As a medical professional, how much stretching is a great addition to being able to open your own practice? Why is it that companies coming into your area are actually a benefit to you as a rehab professional? And how can you jump on board and learn something so that you can provide a service that far outweighs anything StretchLabs can offer your customer?

    Welcome to the Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S. Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I will talk about rehab professionals seeing StretchLabs and other flexibility companies open up in their respective areas; the struggle in the PT industry; and how insurance companies control how professionals can care for their clients.

    I will touch on such topics as:

    • The StretchLabs have already done market research for you and they have set prices which are typically higher than what you set in your facility. They set boundaries and guidelines for cancellations, no refunds, prepaid visits, and have a proper advertisement.
    • The facility offers only one service and that is stretching, which helps you as a rehab professional because there is no other profession that knows what you know in the musculoskeletal system.
    • It helps you to provide a service and use your clinical skills without risking your current license.
    • Being an affiliate owner allows you to get your passion back and to be able to see clients one-on-one the way you want to without the rules and regulations of big insurance, and it also gives you financial freedom.
    • You can make six figures being your own boss, and it gives you a work-life balance.
    • No one in your area can provide what you can provide under the stretch method program.
    • By opening and building a stretch mobility coach practice, along with continued coaching, you too can offer affiliates in order for you to build and grow your practice to a six-figure practice.
