Matt Hoffman is a seasoned physical therapist and certified health coach with over 12 years of experience, and he sat down with us to share how working with Practice Better's automation has allowed him to streamline administrative tasks and grow his business.
After realizing that physio alone couldn’t address many of his clients’ issues, Matt became a Certified Health Coach and Integrative Health Practitioner. Seeking to expand into the wellness and health coaching world with an integrative and functional medicine approach, Matt established Move Well Wellness as an extension of his rehabilitation company, Move Well Rehab Services.
“I identified a gap where physio alone couldn't address non-musculoskeletal issues, leading me to explore health coaching. So instead of sending people away, I now continue with their health and wellness journey through my part-time side business, which Practice Better helps me maintain, manage, and grow.”
Running Move Well Rehab Services and Move Well Wellness meant Matt could offer his clients more holistic care; however, Matt was concerned about the administrative workload that came with running two companies.
“Practice Better is user-friendly and secures all my onboarding paperwork, like consent and liability forms. The platform has taken the stress out of all of my administrative work!”
When looking for a software solution to streamline administrative tasks and ease the burden, Matt wanted a simple, stress-free way to onboard clients, handle consent forms, complete payments, and schedule programs. Automating these tasks was key to saving precious admin time.
Matt needed to streamline as much as possible so this second business didn’t take away any time from his family; he wanted to keep things simple for his clients and for himself.
Matt explored various platforms for wellness practice management but discovered the perfect solution with Practice Better. It had the administrative features he had been searching for, including client onboarding, consent forms, payments, and scheduling. Matt also loved that Practice Better had group program functionalities to help him scale.
Matt is currently running his first group program, “Quarterly Detox,” through Practice Better, which he offers as a 7, 14, or 21-day functional medicine detox program. He finds the ability to schedule content within programs indispensable. Matt’s overarching business goal is to onboard at least one new wellness client each month, with the potential for retention through subsequent detox group programs.
Matt has also structured a three-month health coaching package, billed monthly, complete with assessments and follow-ups, all managed through Practice Better. After completing the program, some clients have expressed interest in formal health coaching, creating a gateway to generate more recurring customers.
Practice Better is not just a tool that helps Matt; it has become a strategic partner in growing his client base and establishing a steady stream of recurring revenue.
"Having health coaching, calls, and payments all in one place with Practice Better is like a convenient one-stop shop. Additionally, the programs for my functional medicine group detox programs add another valuable dimension to the platform.”
Looking ahead, Matt's growth plan involves working with Practice Better to run the business efficiently so he can focus on growth through referrals, client retention, and running group programs. With Practice Better as his ‘virtual assistant sidekick’, Matt can support his clients from conventional physical therapy to a more comprehensive wellness approach while creating a tight-knit wellness community. The journey has just begun for Matt, and Practice Better is a key ally in his growth.
