About the Blog

Founded in 2004, Evidence in Motion specializes in providing education and training to physical therapists. The blog posts cover a range of topics, and are written by many different contributors, which gives it more of a diverse voice than many other blogs. We suggest checking out the posts on practice management and marketing, as they provide motivation for running a successful practice, as well as thought-provoking discussions about the PT industry. It's also interesting to read the commentary from readers, who sometimes respond to topics and share their thoughts, making for very interesting and enlightening conversations.

About the Blog

As the top web-based physical therapy software on the market, WebPT knows a thing or two about running an efficient practice. It's to be expected that such a successful company would use its blog to sell its own product (and indeed, some posts are centered around explaining how the company's software specifically addresses certain pain points in the industry). However, most of WebPT's blog posts are also interesting and educational resources for all physical therapists, even if they're not WebPT users. The blog posts are thoroughly researched, and share advice to help PTs on a variety of topics, ranging from billing and compliance issues, to tips for increasing your patient referrals.
