Hey lovely listeners, Katie here! I’m absolutely thrilled to bring you another episode of the Treat Your Business podcast. Today, I’m joined by two incredible clinic owners, Ian Andrews and James Scrimshaw, to chat about MBST and the real impact it’s had on their clinics and their lives.

In this episode, I dive into a bold conversation with Ian and James about why they turned to MBST, what it’s meant for their practices, and the lessons they’ve learned along the way. We cover everything from their personal experiences with chronic pain to making big business investments based on gut instinct, and how MBST has become a game-changer for their patients.

• Both Ian and James were driven by personal need and curiosity to find better solutions for their patients, especially for those with arthritic and chronic issues.
• MBST filled a major gap in their treatment toolbox, offering real solutions where hands-on care and traditional rehab reached their limits.
• Their decisions to invest in MBST were based on instinct and belief in its potential, not just the numbers.
• Educating their teams and patients is key – it’s all about understanding the root cause and treating each person individually.
• MBST has changed the way they approach healing, making them feel they couldn’t run their clinics without it now.
• Success is measured by patient outcomes and word of mouth, not just keeping people coming back for endless sessions.

Hey everybody, welcome back to the Thrive Treat Your Business podcast. I am so excited to share something big with you in this episode. If you are a physio, sports therapist, podiatrist or clinic owner who is passionate about helping people but feels like your business is running you instead of the other way round, this one is absolutely for you.

Episode summary

In this short, sharp episode I am lifting the lid on Clinic Growth Live version two. Clinic Growth Live is my one day, in person event created specifically for clinic owners in the health and wellness space who want freedom, profit and impact without burning out.

We are back on Friday 27 March 2026 from 9am to 5pm at the Leonardo Hotel and Conference Venue at Hinkley Island in Leicestershire. If you came to version one, you will know it was wild, high energy and full of sequins. This year we have gone bigger, better, shinier and fully branded, and we have doubled capacity to 200 seats.

If you are stuck in back to back clients, paying yourself last, winging your marketing and avoiding your numbers, this is exactly why Clinic Growth Live exists. Across the day I will walk you through the same framework that has helped over 378 clinic owners go from overworked and underpaid to calm, confident and profitable.

Key takeaways

• Clinic Growth Live version two is happening on Friday 27 March 2026, 9am to 5pm, at the Leonardo Hotel and Conference Venue, Hinkley Island, Leicestershire
• The event is for physios, sports therapists, podiatrists, osteopaths and Pilates or studio based clinic owners in the health and wellness space
• It is not for beauty or holistic therapy businesses, it is tailored to healthcare clinics that serve paying clients and want to scale sustainably
• You will learn how to reduce your clinical hours so you have time to think strategically and grow your business
• You will discover how to pay yourself first and pay yourself more every single month
• You will work on building systems and, if you choose, a team that can run without you being there all the time
• You will leave with your own clear 30 day plan so you are not just inspired, you are equipped to take action the very next day
• Waiting list members get first access to tickets, early bird pricing at 97 pounds plus VAT, and exclusive bonuses and perks
• The framework we use has already helped clinic owners move from late nights, constant emails and no holidays to more time at home, more holidays and more profit in their accounts

Welcome

Hello listeners, welcome back to the Treat Your Business Podcast. I am super excited you are here because today we are talking about something that can completely change how your clinic runs and how you feel about running it. If you have ever said things like “it is just quicker if I do it myself” or “I cannot find anybody who does it like me” or “I have tried and they do not get it right so I have taken the job back” then this episode is for you. I am joined by our COO in Thrive, Nichola, and we are diving into how to get the best out of your practice manager or business manager without micromanaging them.

Episode Summary

In this episode, Nichola and I unpack what a great practice manager actually does and how that role should sit alongside you as the CEO. We talk about the difference between a practice manager and an administrator, what you should never delegate as the owner and what you absolutely must let go of. We explore why so many clinic owners become the bottleneck, constantly firefighting and feeling exhausted, and how unclear roles and poor communication turn your practice manager into a reactive doer instead of a strategic partner. We also talk honestly about trust, identity, perfectionism and control, and why you have to be willing to hire people who are better than you in their area if you want the clinic and your life to grow.

Key Takeaways

• Your job as CEO is vision, leadership, culture and big financial decisions, not doing all the things
• A strong practice manager owns day to day operations, systems, team communication, tech and data
• If every decision has to go through you, you have already waited too long to hire for this role
• Trust, clear outcomes, a weekly meeting rhythm and simple KPIs stop micromanagement for both of you
