Hi, I’m Karen Litzy, and I know what it’s like to be where you are.
I started my physical therapy career at an inpatient hospital in Scranton, PA. Since then, I moved to New York and had the opportunity to work for the New York public school system, Broadway musical troupes, and orthopedic outpatient clinics. Before long I started to receive an overwhelming number of requests from clients to treat them at their home or office. This was new to me, but I quickly fell in love with this “concierge” model, I could dedicate a full hour of one-on-one treatment to each and every client. This is where my entrepreneurial journey started.
After hosting the 2013 Healthy Wealthy & Smart online conference for physical therapists, attendees kept asking for more business related material — material providing a solid guide on how to create and grow a sustainable physical therapy business.
So I have assembled 15 industry leaders in the areas of entrepreneurship and physical therapy to share invaluable knowledge and expertise with you. During our time together you will learn how to take your physical therapy practice from start up to success or take your current business to another level.

Hear it for yourself!
“The Strictly Business Virtual Conference has given me insight and guidance into the business side of PT that is often lacking in DPT education programs but most importantly has prepared me to build a realistic and plausible business plan for a future practice of my own. It’s never too early to begin thinking about owning your own practice and Karen’s conference gives you the foundation to do so.”
Ryan Smith, DPT“Karen’s conference packs about 50 books, some MBA classes, many years of mistakes and even more nuggets of wisdom into one conference, it is great content for anyone who owns a PT clinic or dreams of owning one in the future.”
Zack Duhamel, DPT“I purchased your Strictly Business Virtual Conference last year and devoured it. I took a lot of the information I learned from you and your guests and put it into action with my practice, Invigorate PT & Wellness (www.InvigoratePT.com). I’m proud to say that, after 10 months of working on it part-time, I was able to go “all-in” in December. With guidance from your conference, I built my clientele and network, launched an updated version of my website and included my very first eGuide (check it out here) as a lead magnet and since then I’ve been off to the races! The awesome thing is that when I first listened I was in the Creating phase of my business, and now I can go back and listen more closely to the Growing and Branching out podcasts. The conference follows me through my business growth phases, which is so valuable.”
