STOP Settling for Mediocre Physical Therapy in 2025 🚫
Choosing the right physical therapist isn’t about picking the clinic with the best Yelp reviews or the fanciest degrees. It’s about alignment. Goals. Trust. And knowing what kind of partner you actually need in your recovery journey.

In this video, I’m breaking down the 5 steps to finding the right PT — not just someone who checks the boxes, but someone who actually gets you, pushes you, and builds a plan that’s designed for you, not the average patient.

We’ll cover:👉 What to figure out before you Google a single clinic
👉 The difference between credentials and real alignment
👉 Red flags that mean it’s time to walk away
👉 What to ask during your first session (and why it matters)
👉 How to stop outsourcing your recovery to someone who’s not built for your goals

Bottom line: You’re not just finding a healthcare provider. You’re building a team. So be picky. Ask better questions. And stop settling for cookie-cutter care.
