So far in this series I’ve covered the concepts of process driven results versus outcome driven results. We’ve touched on categorizing various design and treatment approaches.

Today for my last post in this serious I want to touch on a topic that is more abstract. More of a vibe than naming a certain design or treatment concept.

This is my favorite picture of my living room. it’s not staged. It’s just a snap shot my sister took while visiting. It reads

Thoughtful.
Cozy.
You are family here.

That is not a design concept or follows any sort of rule of interior design principle. It’s a feeling.

My job at Affiliate PT is to diagnose and treat your neuromuscular and musculoskeletal disorders.

Technically, thats my job and main goal of your treatment session.

But something else is happening in each visit. While we are building your rehab plan, we are also building something even stronger.

A Relationship.

My main goal at Affiliate PT is to foster long lasting relationships. After treating clients for years, I will end up treating spouses. Parents. Children. Home visits for SOS calls and post-op. Showing up at sport events and races. I end up feeling more like part of the family than a provider.

We are a grassroots, community based, small physical therapy practice that specializes in treating active people in Columbus.
So what is the feeling you get when you come see one of us at Affiliate PT? We hope you feel

Heard.
Understood.
Deeply cared for.

Affiliate PT family photos 2026 ✅

This crew at Affiliate PT places so much trust in me as a business owner, and for that I am so grateful. Each and every one of them could have chosen a different career path: a secure, salaried 9-5(ish) in our normal healthcare system (plus hours of documentation, fighting with insurance companies 😵‍💫). Clock in, clock out, get paid no matter how good the care they provide is or if their patients get better or not.

There are no guarantees in a small business, especially physical therapy, but instead they chose Affiliate PT: an out of the box (inside a box), pie in the sky idea I had in 2015 where patients come first instead of insurance, providers are paid fairly for their time, and we have more time to practice as we see fit for the patient, and refine our craft with our incredible team.

This team continues to challenge and inspire each other daily to learn more and give our all for our patients, and our own personal goals! And together we have built something so special. I’m literally tearing up as I type this just thinking about how impactful each and every one of our providers are to their own patients, the gyms we work in and the communities we serve. 🥹

I’m already pumped AF for what’s to come in 2027 and beyond for this crew and our patients 💪🏼🙌🏼🙏🏽🎉

This could be the hardest, but yet most simple, part of getting psychologically sound after an injury.

Get in a positive head space!

Here’s how when it seem impossible:
1) Smile! I know …so annoying! But just paste one on and see what happens. It takes time for it to set in, but it’s something physical to do that adds so much good to your recovery process.

2) Write 3 things you’re thankful for every day. Somewhere where you can see them being written or you are reminded of them. Pointing out the good in life far overcomes seeing the negative.

Mindset often follows actions. These are your actions until they are your feelings, and you’re coming from a place of gratitude and positivity.

Affiliate PT: The Design Edit

This week on the Affiliate PT design edit, I’ll show you how good design and good rehab are built. The big overlying principals of what guides each thing.

Swipe through the pictures of my spaces. Can you name one specific design style?

Midcentury modern: low profile furniture
Traditional: Turkish rug
Contemporary: white sectional and floor lamp
Scandinavian: light wood, neutrals
Bohemian: plants, rattan

Just like in interior design, my treatment approach is a mix of different treatment types. At Affiliate PT we prescribe you a variety interventions. For example:

Contemporary Approach: Dry needling with E-Stim
Neurodynamics: cue your nerve glides
Stabilization approach: think McGill big three and squat university flavors
Mckenzie: repeated spine movements like press ups
Biomechanical approach: running analysis and joint mechanics
   If we lean too heavily on specific approach, things become predictable, stale and boring and generic. The most interesting spaces and effective rehab programs are a blend of what works best FOR YOU and keeps things fun and interesting!

What design styles are you most drawn to? What rehab and recovery interventions make you feel your best?
