Ready to give your team an experience they'll talk about for years?

 

Practitioner Team Wellness and Education is a customizable on-site experience that combines interactive staff education on pain, movement, and nervous system health with real hands-on wellness care.

This is a transformational, interactive, hands-on event that energizes and empowers your team. When your team feels supported, educated, and genuinely cared for, that energy is contagious. Your clients feel the difference the moment they walk through the door.

Your team didn't know they needed this. They're about to make it their favorite work memory ever.

Your team shows up to an event unlike anything they've experienced before. They're moving their bodies, learning things that actually make sense, getting hands-on care from a team of expert physical therapists, and walking away with tools they'll use every single day. They leave energized, inspired, and genuinely excited about the work they do. That's what a Team Wellness and Education event feels like.

What a Team Wellness & Education event actually looks like.

We come to you. We work around your schedule. And we build the experience around what your team actually needs. This is a highly interactive event that will be transformational for your team, your practice, and your client experience. It is an event that has them talking about it years from now.

Every Team Wellness and Education experience is customized to your practice and your people. Here's what that can look like:

Team Wellness and Self-Care

  • Posture, ergonomic, and movement optimization specific to your work environment

  • Mobility and strength drills your team can use on a regular basis to support their body

  • On-site dry needling, cupping, and bodywork for staff to experience relief from aches and pains

  • Nervous system regulation tools for high-demand workdays

Staff Education and Clinical Training

  • Understanding pain and how it shows up in the body

  • Learning why the nervous system is the queen bee, what dysregulation looks like, and how to recognize it in your clients

  • Practical communication tools for working with anxious or pain-sensitive clients

  • How to optimize the delivery of your service when a client is dealing with pain or tension, whether that's a facial with someone experiencing jaw pain, a cleaning with a client who can't open wide, or any hands-on treatment where discomfort is present

  • How to adapt your hands-on techniques within your scope of practice to provide real relief alongside your service

Could your team use this?

If your team works with humans, this is for you. This is built for the practice owners who are intentional about their culture, passionate about their people, and ready to give their team an experience that goes way beyond a standard team meeting or lunch and learn.

This is built for your team if you are…

  • A practice where the physical demands of the work are real, where your team spends their days in challenging postures, repetitive positions, and demanding physical environments and their bodies feel it

  • A dental office or orthodontic practice looking to better support patients with jaw tension, TMJ pain, or dental anxiety

  • A facial bar, med spa, or aesthetics practice whose clients frequently present with jaw, facial, or neck tension

  • A massage therapy or bodywork practice wanting to deepen their understanding of pain and the nervous system

  • A chiropractic, acupuncture, or wellness practice looking to add an educational and wellness experience for your team

  • Any healthcare or wellness practice that wants to invest in the wellbeing of the people who show up and give everything every day

The return on investing in your team.

You've already built something good. Your team shows up, they work hard, and they genuinely care about the people they serve. This isn't about fixing something that's broken. This is about taking something great and making it even better.

A Practitioner Team Wellness and Education event gives your team a shared experience unlike anything they've had before. They learn together, move together, and get taken care of together. That kind of shared experience deepens connection, builds trust, and creates a team culture that is genuinely hard to replicate. And when they come back to work the next day, they bring all of that with them.

Here's what practices that invest in their teams experience:

  • A team that feels seen, valued, and genuinely excited about the work they do

  • Deeper team connection and a culture people are proud to be part of

  • A more confident, informed team that handles difficult client situations with ease

  • Clients who feel the difference and keep coming back

  • A reputation as the practice that goes above and beyond

  • Stronger referral relationships built on trust and shared values

 

Here's how it works.

We come to you. We work around your schedule. And we build the whole experience around what your team actually needs.

  • Location: On-site at your office

  • Length: Events are customized to your schedule: half day, 2-3 hours, or a focused 90 minute session. We build around what works for your team 

  • Group size: Whether you have a team of 3 or 30, we've got you

    • Productive stress processing

    • Clinical training within your scope of practice to improve your clients’ experience

    • Bodywork services including dry needling, cupping, “scraping”, and hands-on muscle work

 Meet the Team Behind Team Wellness and Education

 

Hi, I’m Dr. Stephanie Duffey.

I didn't just build a practice. I built a team culture around a simple belief: when the people doing the work feel truly supported, seen, and poured into as humans first, everyone wins.

At Empower Physio and Wellness that looks like team lunches, celebration outings, bonding events, open communication, personal wellness benefits, continuing education, and free care at the practice. Not because it's a perk, but because it's the foundation. When my team feels genuinely cared for, they naturally and authentically pour that same energy into every client they touch. Communication is on point. They show up as the best version of themselves. Their clients feel it in every single interaction.

That philosophy is the heartbeat of everything we do at Empower Physio and Wellness, and it's exactly what Team Wellness and Education is built to bring to your practice. Because even if things are already good in your office, imagine what's possible when your team gets to be on the receiving end for once. When they get to learn, be cared for, and reconnect with why they do this work in the first place.

I'm a Doctor of Physical Therapy specializing in jaw pain, TMJ dysfunction, headaches, neck pain, back pain, sciatica, and stress-related pain. But my passion goes beyond the clinic. I've spent my career not just helping clients, but helping the helpers. The providers, the practitioners, the people who pour themselves into others every single day. Because people don't know what they don't know. And the more we can fill our community of providers with truth, real tools, and genuine understanding of the best resources for the humans they serve, the better our entire community becomes.

Team Wellness and Education events are led by me and my team of Doctors of Physical Therapy, each bringing their own clinical expertise, energy, and passion for this work. We don't just show up and lecture. We collaborate, we connect, and we pour into your team the same way we pour into ours. Because that's how real, community-wide change happens.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Not at all. Whether you have a team of 3 or 30 we build the experience around your group and make it an intimate, intentionally curated event.

  • We recommend reaching out at least 6-8 weeks in advance to allow time to customize the event for your practice and lock in the date. That said, reach out anyway and we'll do our best to make it work.

  • Dry needling is safe for most people and we screen each team member before any hands-on care to make sure it's a good fit for them. Participation in the hands-on portion is always optional and entirely based on each team member's comfort level. No pressure, ever. 

  • That's exactly what our initial conversation is for. When you reach out we'll ask about your practice, your team, and what you're hoping to get out of the experience. From there we put together a customized plan that fits your goals and your schedule.

  • Absolutely. Every event is built around your practice and your people. Reach out, tell us what you're hoping to accomplish, and we'll put together a customized itinerary that fits your goals.

  • That depends entirely on what you've chosen for your event. A 90 minute session might include a focused education topic plus a movement and mobility segment. A half day might include education, hands-on bodywork for each team member, and a nervous system regulation workshop. We build the flow around your time and your team so it feels seamless and energizing rather than rushed or overwhelming.

  • Primarily we serve the greater Columbus and central Ohio area. For practices outside of that area reach out and we'll see what we can make happen.
