Physical Therapy Practices Marketing FAQs

How do you market direct access PT vs physician referrals?

We create separate strategies: digital campaigns target direct access patients searching for pain relief and injury treatment, while physician marketing includes LinkedIn targeting orthopedic surgeons and primary care doctors, plus offline relationship building. Most practices need both channels.

What PT specialties can you market?

We market all PT specialties including orthopedic, sports medicine, neurological, geriatric, pelvic floor, vestibular, pediatric, and hand therapy. Each specialty requires unique targeting based on patient demographics and referral sources.

Can you integrate with our PT practice management software?

Yes, we integrate with major PT software (WebPT, Clinicient, TheraOffice, etc.) to track patient acquisition, treatment plans, lifetime value, and ROI by marketing source. This closed-loop reporting optimizes toward highest-value patient types.

How do you handle insurance vs cash-pay PT marketing?

Insurance-based campaigns emphasize in-network benefits and coverage, while cash-pay campaigns highlight convenience, specialized treatments, and outcome-focused care. Many practices benefit from hybrid approaches offering both payment options.

What budget do PT practices need for marketing?

Minimum $6K/month for single-location practices. Multi-location practices typically invest $12K-$25K+ monthly depending on market size, specialty services, and patient volume goals. Direct access strategies require higher investment than referral-focused approaches.

How quickly can we see new patients from PT marketing?

New patient appointments typically start within 2-3 weeks of campaign launch. Meaningful volume and ROI validation takes 60-90 days as we optimize targeting and messaging. We provide weekly reporting on calls, form submissions, and scheduled evaluations.
