In this episode, Kelly Starrett discusses how physical therapists can expand their scope of practice beyond traditional settings and approaches. He talks about his mission to “unload unskilled care” from physical therapists to coaches and personal trainers so PTs can focus more on specialized, doctoring-level care. The conversation covers how PTs can get creative in solving problems in their local communities, the importance of movement benchmarks and “vital signs,” and why pain should not be the primary metric we use to evaluate function. Overall, the episode explores ways for physical therapists to iterate on existing models and innovate new paradigms.FROM ATI
