Physical Therapy That Actually Works for Women's Lives

Ever been injured and told to go to physical therapy — only to find the insurance drama, scheduling chaos, and long commutes made it nearly impossible? You’re not alone. In this episode, I’m sharing my own struggles as a busy working mom trying to juggle PT sessions that felt totally unrealistic — and the pain and missed activities that followed because of it.
Thankfully, there’s a better way. I’m joined by Dr. Kelly Davis, PT, DPT — a top physical therapist, biomechanics expert, and former healthcare provider for elite athletes — who’s now helping everyday people get top-tier orthopedic care on their terms. Through her innovative OrthoCare Concierge program, Kelly offers remote, personalized rehab and performance coaching without the clinic or insurance headaches.
Tune in to learn how hormonal shifts can increase injury risk as we age, and how to create a realistic, proactive plan to stay strong, recover smarter, and move pain-free — no matter your schedule.
