5 Marketing Actions That Matter for Physios

What to focus on, what to ignore, and how to do it in 1 hour per week

Most physiotherapists are told to chase short-term marketing tactics. Ads, hacks, rankings, quick wins. That can work short term. But long term, it creates dependency, low-quality leads, and zero retention.

This free session is about building a foundation so marketing works with your practice, not something you have to keep paying for forever.

It comes down to five simple questions every physio has to answer, and your answers determine whether marketing compounds or keeps costing you.

This session is free and open exclusively to OPA members. Membership will be verified prior to registrants receiving the link to join.

What you will learn:

  • How to set up and maintain your Google Business Profile so patients find you when they are actively searching
  • How to use blogging to bring in new patients without relying on ads
  • How to manage and grow your Google reviews so patients feel confident choosing you
  • How to show up consistently on social media without it taking over your schedule
  • How to show up in both Google and AI search results as patient search behaviour shifts

Date: Wednesday, June 10, 2026
Time: 7:00 to 8:00 PM EST
Format: Zoom Webinar
Cost: Free! Only OPA members may attend.

Agenda:
Welcome and overview (5 minutes)
Context setting: priorities and why this matters (5 minutes)
Keynote presentation: 5 marketing actions that matter (35 minutes)
Live Q&A (15 minutes)

Presented by: Tyler Sinden and Natasha Piroutz, Co-Founders of NewFrame Digital. They work with clinic owners and practitioners every day, specifically physiotherapists, chiropractors, osteopaths, and massage therapists across North America. Their whole approach is built on one belief: marketing shouldn’t take up all of your time, and it shouldn’t cost you a fortune.

APTEI: Temporo-Mandibular Disorders (TMD)

This 1-day course will enable you to gain a practical knowledge of the possible anatomical factors leading to TMJ pain & dysfunctions.

The course will review basic TMJ evaluation and effective muscular retraining exercises & manual therapy.

An important note regarding the TMJ all Physical Therapists need to be aware of:

Many dentists & physicians are in need of referring their patients with persistent headaches, earaches, and facial pains related to the TMJ to other health care professionals; however they are unaware that some PTs can effectively evaluate and treat the TMJ.

There are great opportunities for PTs to assist their local dentists and help many individuals who suffer from persistent and disabling TMJ conditions. Management includes education on condition, highly effective home exercise programs and gentle mobilizations.

Please view these 2 short videos prior to the course.

Intro to TMJ

Clinical Practice Skills for Inflammatory Arthritis

Clinical Practice Skills for Inflammatory Arthritis (CPSIA) is a professional development program that has evolved with the evidence and the learning needs of today’s interprofessional team. The program progressively develops the participants’ clinical practice skills over a 5-day period through a blend of online, didactic, interactive and experiential learning on the most prevalent arthritis conditions.

Our rehab focused in-person program concentrates on applying assessment and treatment skills that build upon knowledge gained in the virtual program. There will be extensive opportunities to practice these skills with each other and with volunteer patients living with inflammatory arthritis.

CPSIA will support the learning of those who provide client-centred healthcare to people with arthritis across a continuum of settings and stages of disease. (The program does not address childhood arthritis.)

Many of the program’s graduates go on to successfully complete the Advanced Clinician Practitioner in Arthritis Care (ACPAC) program.

During the practical session, attendees will work in small groups, taking on roles as both the clinician and patient. With an excellent ratio of lab assistants to participants, attendees will receive guidance throughout the trauma informed practical portion in a safe and supportive environment. Lab assistants will be available to answer questions and ensure a supportive learning environment.

If you are unable or uncomfortable acting as a patient model for any reason, you are required to bring someone (such as a friend, family member, or colleague) to practice on, as there is no guarantee that another participant will volunteer to act as a model more than once.
