COVID-19 pandemic or not, it’s beneficial for physical therapists to build relationships with current and past patients, gyms, nearby clinical providers, and other local communities. In this article, we cover 4 ways physical therapists can promote their services to deliver care to more patients. Plus, we provide templates to help you with your outreach as you build these relationships.  

1. Reach out to Friends, Family, and Past Patients

Word of mouth is perhaps the most powerful marketing tool. Do you know of any friends, family, or former patients who might need PT? If they don’t, someone they know might need it!

How are you? I’m reaching out to let you know I am now offering PT via in-person delivery through Luna. If you don’t need PT, do you know anyone who does? 

2. Promote on Social Media

  • Work when you want. You set your own schedule, and Luna handles the booking, billing, and patient marketing.
  • Treat engaged patients. This is not traditional home health. You get to work with patients who are motivated, ambulatory, and who have outpatient needs.
  • See the clinical impact. You spend 45-55 minutes of each appointment with your patient, and see them for their entire course of care.

What’s more, Luna works with major insurance providers.
