Simply Follow Our 12 Modules For Complete Confidence & Clarity To Make Sense Of What You Are Seeing In The Clinic So You Can Stop Constantly Questioning Yourself, Worrying About Giving The Right Exercise Or If Your Patient Will Come Back Again To See You Again…
“Your patients do not rise to the level of their goals, they fall to the level of YOUR systems…”
– Adapted from James Clear
If you were anything like me when I first went into Private Practice… I struggled with the isolation of working on my own and the constant fluctuation in patient numbers in my diary.
The constant second-guessing if I was on the right track… and the emotional and psychological stress that I was bringing home at night… because people were paying me money… and their expectations were much higher than the national healthcare service.
“Did I give the right exercise to that patient?”
“What am I missing here?”
“Was she ready to progress?”
“Has he lost confidence in me to get him right?”
“Will she come back again to see me?”
“Am I actually good enough to do this?”
All those thoughts were running through my mind at night.
It was exhausting…
Struggling to keep patients engaged after 2-3 sessions and progress them all the way through their intended treatment plan… without them dropping off or canceling appointments once the pain has gone.
In all honesty, there were some patients who would do ok in the first few sessions… but then their progress would stagnate… and they would lose interest, not show up or make excuses that they’ll be in touch to book their next session… (when in reality I never heard from them again).
When I look back on that, I know that it’s because I had a genuine lack of confidence and clarity in my treatment plans… and didn’t know how to progress my patients.
Or said another way…
I didn’t understand the ‘WHY’ behind everything I was doing.
And that translated through to the patient.
I’m positive they could hear my uncertainty and lack of confidence in my voice…
Some of the biggest symptoms I had at the time were:
- Feeling rushed in the subjective assessment… and not having any flow to get the information I needed… with high-quality questions that ensured I didn’t miss anything
- Getting overwhelmed in the objective assessment because of the poor validity and reliability of special tests… and not knowing where to start
- Not being able to narrow down the underlying cause… and jumping from test to test with no real thought process
- Not having clarity on a clear progressive treatment plan after the initial assessment… and ‘making it up’ as I went along session to session.
- Not being clear on what my patient’s problem actually was… and feeling pressured to do lots of hands-on treatment… and rush the rehab exercises in the last five minutes of the session.
- Usually after sessions 2 -3 when the novel benefits of hands-on treatment wore off… some patients started to plateau. They’d feel great leaving the clinic but then days, hours, or even minutes later the pain would return.
- I didn’t trust that my rehab exercises would get results… and switched from exercise to exercise every session… without any real clarity or confidence.
- WORSE: My lack of clarity in the full treatment plan led me to take risks… and send patients back to activities without knowing if they were ready… or say things like “see how that exercise goes and give me a ring if any problems”… and as always they’d never call again…
If Money Is Your Main Motivation In Private Practice, Then Know This…
…not to mention actually design a treatment plan in full after the initial assessment with an agreed prognosis and timescale.
And looking back when I first started my private practice…
It cost me thousands each year in lost revenue, retention, and referrals.
More importantly… the patient didn’t get the desired results and this can impact your reputation also.
After the initial assessment, the patient would get a vague explanation of a diagnosis, lie on the bed for some hands on treatment, get a few exercises in the last five minutes, hand over the money and get booked in for the following week…
No genuine plan in place…
No expectations set or actually clarity for the patient on what needs to happen and a realistic timescale…
Is it any wonder they just expected hands on treatment every session?
And after 2-3 sessions with progress stagnating, they dropped off…
…or when the pain eased they didn’t bother coming back?
Was that my fault or the patients fault?
Nowadays I still see this mistake being made so many times, even with head physios in the pro sport environments… and with pro athletes who come to see me after failing traditional approaches.
They’ve gone through all the eccentric strengthening exercises but never truly earned the right to progress to the next stage of the movement plan…
…and just returned to the activities or sport once the pain has eased.
Infact, there is rarely a genuine step by step treatment plan designed, communicated and implemented with the patient in the first place.
Therapists give patients boring exercises like ‘squeezing their glutes’… or ‘sucking in the belly button’… or trying the ‘keep the knee over the second toe’.
Are you designing a treatment plan specific to your patients NEEDS and WANTS to be able to do on a daily basis…
…or trying to fit your patient into your favourite exercises that worked for another patient?
Is your treatment plan setting the patient up for success for the 6-10 hours a day activities they NEED to be able to do every single day or are you focusing on the 6-10 reps?
Can you see the problem with this?
And to make things even worse…
MOST OF THESE EXERCISES prescribed today by therapists… are NOT GENUINELY MEANINGFUL to their patient’s SITUATION or lives.
They are straight off Instagram or some Youtube video without any clinical reasoning.
Our patient wants to go down one path and get back to doing real life activities and we take them down a completely different path.
Is it any wonder they don’t have the desire and motivation to do the homework we set them?
Most rehab exercises are too ‘nice and controlled’.
The reality of life is that movement is chaotic in the real world…
…and your patient will not have time and SHOULD NOT need to think about their muscles doing all these things.
It should happen without conscious thought.
As the great Louis Gifford said: “Thoughtless, Fearless, Movement”.
Your patient’s daily movements are happening outside of higher center control where EVERYTHING from the peripheral tissues to the higher centers are doing their jobs.
When you look at the graph below you’ll see most exercises the majority of people do in the physio room only stress their bodies a certain amount… at a certain speed of movement…
The biggest mistake I see is when the pain goes (the first circle on the graph above for example)…
Usually, around session 3-4…
the person tries to get straight back into real-world activities just because they could squat and lunge pain-free.
As you probably already know this proves to be too much too soon and the pain comes back again.
From my experience of mentoring over 700+ therapists in over 24 countries…
The natural ‘go-to’ reaction is to have the patient jump back on the bed for more hands on treatment.
What you REALLY NEED to know is…
Can they tolerate similar stress on the parts of the body that are not doing its fair share of work?
These are the exercises that bridge the gap from the nice safe environment of the physio room…
…to the real world.
These exercises stress the body more in meaningful situations… and allow the patient an opportunity to build resilience.
Yet it’s critical that you use it at the right time in the treatment plan.
This is where the ‘Go-To’ Therapist Mentorship System is critical.
We set expectations with our patients from the very first session.
‘Go To’ Mentorship Therapists take control of the situation and are not patient led because of what happens in the initial assessment.
The ‘Go To’ Therapist confidently explains the problem and solution WHILE the patient has complete clarity on the full plan before they even get on the bed for the first bit of treatment.
You focus 20% of your time on the symptoms and 80% of your time on what’s actually driving or predominantly contributing to the symptoms in the first place.
Each exercise prescribed is meaningful for the patient and can get quick and long lasting results.
You take the emotion out of the decision making and you follow the next logical progression.
You then use the step by step system to ‘overload’ the person in a safe and controlled manner…
…your patient comes through these progressions and this gives them genuine confidence that they are ready to return to the real world
… and back to their activities safely with THOUGHTLESS, FEARLESS, MOVEMENT.
They have earned the right to progress while you work smarter not harder.
- Your revenue per patient increases ETHICALLY.
- The patient actually gets the RESULT they were promised in the first place and is ‘wowed’ in the process.
- They tell their family and friends so your REFERRALS will increase.
- The patient will have no hesitation in coming back to you again with other niggles or issues in the future so your RETENTION will increase also.
- Your REPUTATION as someone who thinks differently from the other standard therapists in your town will massively increase also effortlessly.
…but dropped off after 4 sessions.
In truth, you probably did not know where to next with the patient once the pain eases…
You end up feeling either useless or referring to somebody else.
And even worse you may be now doubting your abilities as a therapist.
And from a financial point of view…
Those 2 extra sessions at £50 per session, the patient ethically needed will cost you £1,000 per month for every 10 patients…
That’s £12,000 per year in lost revenue and results from patients.
That’s not even to mention the damage to your reputation…
the lost referrals from ‘not so happy’ patients…
and the lost retention of these patients who didn’t get the results you promised them on your website.
You can pay some overpriced marketing agency to run SEO, Google Ads, Or Facebook to try and grow your business all you want…
But unless you have the confidence and clarity to take a patient through a full treatment plan and get results…
You will always be worrying about having to get new patients.
Easily Master The Most Up To Date Techniques Where You Understand The ‘Why’ Behind Everything You Do From A Top Therapist Who Was Head Hunted By England Rugby League AND Union Teams For Their 2017 & 2019 World Cups Respectively….
This is no room for ‘trying an exercise and hoping for the best’ in these environments.
You need to have a clear logical step by step treatment plan and prognosis for every patient.
I have taken this pro sport approach and integrated into my own private practice.
I’ve been through some of the biggest challenges you’re going through right now…
and had to figure out solutions that I’ve tried and tested with both World Class Athletes… and in my own clinic with non sporting patients.
Everything I teach is what I use on a day to day basis.
There is no bullsh%t ‘advanced levels’ or ‘teaching one thing’ but using another in the real world’.
Because everything I teach is based on principles.
Understanding the ‘WHY’ behind everything you’re doing.
And that empowers you to have clarity and confidence as a therapist… no matter who walks through your door next.
Not only that…
I’ve been able to replicate this approach for clinicians all over the world…
…in places like the UK, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Australia, New Zealand, US, and Canada…
to name but a few countries… that therapists are implementing this system with outstanding results.
….what the average person REALLY wants it to know is…
1: WHAT is the ACTUAL true problem is that’s causing their pain experience
and
2: WHAT the solution is for them to get back to doing the things that they love the most in life…WITHOUT the pain coming back again.
And in order to do this…
You need COMPLETE clarity in finding the true problem… and the confidence in designing a bespoke treatment plan SPECIFIC to the person in front of you.

Leon Cassin

Patients are returning weekly and adhere to their homework. A lot of my patients have mainly come from word of mouth referrals.”
Save Yourself From The Boredom Of Going Through The Motions… Using The Same Exercises With Every Patient… And Leaking Revenue From Unhappy Patients… Dropping Off By Not Getting The Results You Promised Them On Your Website
The harsh reality is that a LACK OF A STEP BY STEP system is costing private practice therapists tens of thousands of pounds each year.
At the risk of not wanting to sound “salesy” and “all about money”…
Most therapists are not maximising their clinical skills… and trying to solve common SYMPTOMS in their clinic by trying to get more new patients.
No Google ads campaign, Faceboook campaign or SEO will solve the lifetime customer value problem most clinics have.
There are ONLY 3 ways to grow your business (and reputation).
I look at these as the three pillars to a profitable business that has a healthy cash flow:
Pillar #1: Increase the number of customers
Pillar #2: Increase the average order value of each customer (ethically)
Pillar #3: Increase the number of times they buy from you (ethically)
That is it.
Yet, most people obsess with pillar 1. That is a BIG MISTAKE!
In the ‘Go-To’ Therapist mentorship, we work smarter, not harder in all aspects of your daily clinical work and business.
#2 can be done ethically by keeping patients on track and not dropping off…
This is going to be critical and the oxygen to your business growth.
#3 can be done by actually delivering results for patients so they are confident to come back to see you again and…
Have the confidence in YOU to be able to get results to recommend you to their family and friends.
This will increase #1 and increase your word of mouth referrals.
If you master #2 and #3, then #1 will take care of itself.
That all starts with having a step by step system…
Could this be costing you £100+ per patient?
That’s £1000+ per 10 patients per month is £12,000+ per 10 patients per year.
Would you like a £12,000 pay rise each year and actually get great consistent results with your patients?
The ‘Go-To’ Therapist Mentorship is designed to finally give clarity in ethically progressing your patients…and growing your business… by maximizing your clinical skills first.
If you take action and implement the content…
…it has the power to add AT LEAST another £12,000 PER YEAR in REVENUE onto your wages… without worrying about advertising for new patients.
By simply delivering what you promised patients on your website in the first place!
Instead of having a clear step by step system, most therapists WASTE TIME, ENERGY and EFFORT giving patients an extra ten minutes here or there.
It is impossible to sustain this when growing a clinic.
The ‘Go-To’ Therapist Mentorship is designed to have you confident treating the majority of patients within 30 minutes per session IF you want to do so.
For therapists working with 60-minute appointments still, that’s DOUBLING your hourly rate while IMPROVING YOUR CLINICAL RESULTS and OUTCOMES.
What patients want is the outcome they came to you for in the first place.
Patients want value for their money and not more time.
Just like you pay the price of a flight to get to a destination, sitting on a plane for an extra hour because of a delay isn’t necessarily a good thing.
A lack of a step by step system is causing a lot of therapist’s patients to make ‘polite’ excuses and cancel.
Now sure…
You can sift through another webinar…
Pay a couple of hundred pounds for another hands-on or exercise course or you can get the root cause sorted right now.
The ‘Go-To’ Therapist Mentorship is a complete roadmap so you no longer have to keep wasting your time and money going on courses…
Where you can only put in place snippets of information get no support…
…and forget 95% of what you have learned by lunchtime on Monday.
FINALLY, Gain Confidence and Clarity to achieve your potential…
… while delivering the best you’re truly capable of giving to your patients and actually making a difference in their lives.

Finally… A Quick Way To Get Rid Of All These Problems That You’re Facing Every Day And Differentiate Yourself From Any Other Therapist In Your Area – Guaranteed!
Problem 1)
Patients Expecting Just Hands On Treatment And Wanting To Just Lie On The Bed For The Full Session…
A patient just expecting passive hands on treatment is simply down to a lack of clarity for the patient on what the true problem is (and not just focusing on the symptoms) along with a mismatch in their expectations that generally needs to be addressed in the Initial Assessments.
How The Mentorship Solves This Problem For You :
The Mentorship will help you ask better questions in the subjective assessment, establish the outcome the patient really wants. This will allow you to communicate in such a way that they gain clarity on the steps involved in bridging the gap from where they are now and where they want to be.
Problem 2)
Patients Not Buying Into The Treatment Plan…
If a patient is not buying into the treatment plan then they do not simply see the value or have clarity on how these movements are helping them get to the outcome they are looking for.
How The Mentorship Solves This Problem For You :
We work hard with you, especially in Modules 1,2,3,4 and 5.
This is to give you complete clarity on linking the subjective assessment and the patient’s story with what you are seeing in front of you.
You will then be able to design a bespoke treatment plan that settles the symptoms while addressing the true cause of the problem.
This clarity combined with engaging the person’s full body and mind in each exercise will get their complete attention as these exercises will be the appropriate level of difficulty to keep the patient engaged.
Problem 3)
Therapists Feeling Overwhelmed In A Session
Overwhelm is another symptom of a lack of clarity.
There can be so much going on in an assessment or even so many different symptoms that the patient is telling you, it can be hard to decide where to even start.
How The Mentorship Solves This Problem For You :
Gaining clarity on the patient’s story and making sense of the objective assessment are critical skill sets to avoid overwhelm which we can work hard on in modules 1, 2 ,3, 4 and 5.
The next progression is simply the next logical step so it takes the guesswork and self doubt out of the equation.
Problem 4)
Feeling Rushed In Sessions
Feeling rushed in sessions is ultimately a symptom of a lack of clarity in being able to identify and prioritise the the most important tissues or area to work on.
Being able to identify the main contributing peripheral tissues (if any) to desensitise to help the patient decrease the pain experience or identify the direction of load tolerance required to solve the true problem causing the pain experience, most therapists default habit will be to over treat.
How The Mentorship Solves This Problem For You :
Some of the key mentorship mantras are “Think More, Treat Less” and “Work Smarter, Not Harder”.
Modules 1,2,3,4 and 5 will prepare you and give you the ‘know how’ to identify the true cause prioritize the most important tissues or direction of load tolerance specific to the person in front of you.
Problem 5)
Don’t Know Where To Go Next
Not knowing where to go next can be linked to becoming overwhelmed but ultimately is due to a lack of clarity to not being able to understand the true cause of the problem, the tissues contributing to the pain experience or the ‘know how’ to progress the patient to the next level of load tolerance.
How The Mentorship Solves This Problem For You :
The Mentorship provides a complete framework for you to follow while still being able to put the patient at the epicentre of everything you do.
This mentorship is about giving you the clarity to take a patient from the initial assessment right through to successful discharge.
Problem 6)
Relying Too Much On Hands On Treatment
Relying too much on hands on treatment will usually come down to a therapist not being confident enough with coaching effective rehab exercises.
How The Mentorship Solves This Problem For You :
The ‘Go To’ Mentorship appreciates hands on treatment but also is aware that it is only a certain level of local tolerance to certain tissues and the nervous system.
This is why we help you combine both hands on treatment and load tolerance movements to actually compliment the hands on treatment to ensure longer lasting results.
Problem 7)
Symptoms Returning Between Sessions Or Patients Stagnating After 3-4 Sessions
From experience, a lot of therapists are ok in the first couple of sessions and can make changes to the patients symptoms.
After 2-3 sessions when the novel stimulus of hands on treatment becomes less novel, this is where the problems usually start.
The symptoms return and the hands on treatment that was effective at changing the symptoms in the first couple of sessions are no longer as effective. This can usually be put down to a lack of continuous graded exposure for the person’s nervous system to continually adapt.
How The Mentorship Solves This Problem For You :
Modules 7,8,9,10,11 and 12 are designed to give you complete clarity on taking a patient from the bed and continually progress each session.
… It takes the guesswork, risks and repeating the same treatment over and over again out of it.
Problem 8)
Patients Not Showing Up Or Cancelling Without Rebooking
Similar to patients not adhering to exercises or the treatment plan, the patient does not simply see the value or prioritises the value of the session at this current down.
This can be due to a number of factors including a lack of clarity from the patient or a mismatch in expectations of what the patient actually wanted and what the therapist delivered.
How The Mentorship Solves This Problem For You :
This is a 12 module approach where you will understand clearly exactly the outcome the patient wants, put the pieces of their puzzle together from their story, make sense of assessment and deliver a bespoke treatment plan to match the desired outcomes of the patient.
Once you can do this, it is easy to differentiate yourself and quickly develop the ‘Go To’ Therapist title in your town.

Therapists who are only interested in ‘patient numbers’. We see every patient at a person. If money is your only motivator then please do not apply. The foundation of everything we do is based on clinical skills and getting long lasting results with patients.
