The Code: A Guide to Health and Human Performance

2. The Story of Physio Room | Dr. Chris Robl

“I'd like to be a facility that helps not only rehab injuries, but also adds in some of that performance mindset,” explains Dr. Chris Robl, CEO, and Owner of Physio Room. Working as a physical therapist in Colorado allowed Dr. Chris to buy into his practice and learn the ropes of being an owner. After his practice’s type of care became more quantity-based versus quality, Dr. Chris became motivated to branch off and start Physio Room, a performance-based rehab facility in Denver.
When starting Physio Room, Dr. Chris recognized that his group might not be the physical therapists for everyone. By narrowing in on working with CrossFitters, cyclists, golfers, and other athletes, Dr. Chris found his niche and hired people who have their specific niches as well. As Physio Room continues to grow, Dr. Chris hopes to educate athletes of all ages on how to reduce their injuries in the long run and enhance their movement.
Tune into this week’s episode of The Code for a reflective conversation on the start of Physio Room. Learn more about the inspiration behind Physio Room, the importance of clarity and vision when running a business, and Dr. Chris’s big picture for Physio Room as it continues to expand.

Quotes
• “Sometimes lack of sleep is worn like a badge of honor because that means you're working hard and pushing yourself. I'm here to tell you that sleep is important, and eventually, that pattern is not going to work out for you.” (3:00 - 3:14) 
• “One of the most important and beneficial things that have come out of this pandemic is learning to put a higher importance on managing your stress because you can't just cover it up.” (5:39 - 5:55)
• “I listed them off here: sleep, movement, nutrition, stress management, relationships, and community. What we want to help create in this show is to teach people or give people ways that they can focus and optimize their efforts in each of these areas. That is going to be the key to living a long, happy, healthy, and fulfilling life.” (6:56 - 7:26)
• “If you don't have a strategy, the plan is going to fall apart. You have to have a plan. You have to have a direction to know where you're going. Otherwise, how will you know if you've hit the point where you are optimizing something?” (8:20 - 8:35)
