Unlocking the Potential of Wellness Programs in Physical Therapy with Joe Camoratto

As a physical therapist, have you integrated remote coaching into your practice? Do you believe wellness programs can play a significant role in optimizing physical therapy outcomes?   In this episode of the Uncaged Clinician Podcast, host Josh Payne is joined by Joe Camoratto, a physical therapist and owner of Across The Continuum, a continuing education mentorship. The organization focuses on teaching clinicians clinical strength training and its application in creating remote wellness retention plans. Joe emphasizes the early introduction of wellness and continuity programs in a patient's journey, allowing for a seamless transition and avoiding last-minute surprises. This approach ensures a smoother path to ongoing wellness and maintenance for clients.   In this episode, Joe shares his expertise on building remote coaching as a retention plan for musculoskeletal clinics. He discusses the importance of blending strength coaching with physical therapy and shares insights on software, selling, program development, and delivering a quality service to clients. Listeners will gain valuable knowledge on implementing remote coaching in their own practices.   They will touch on such topics as: Becoming a strength and rehabilitation coach and starting Across The Continuum: He wanted his time to be on his own terms and to do what he wanted to do with it. What periodization is, freedom of time, and the value of coaching: What remote coaching is for someone who has no idea what it is, and how he does it. Learning programming during the pandemic, strength training and programming, and how much you should charge for coaching. Remote management and financial freedom: Increasing the number of people on the roster or how much they are charging per month frees up more time to write a program and do whatever else. What it looks like as an employer, and all about simple programming, exercise effectiveness, and building trust with patients: The goal is to build a rapport with the patients who have already given you money, not prospective clients, but customers. Wellness programs and public perception, introducing wellness from the beginning, and why people pay for implementation, not information.
