The bigger opportunities that come out of our pain

Charlie Merrill is a Physical Therapist and the founder of Merrill Performance in Boulder, CO. He's synthesized treatment of the mind and body for over 20 years to support people in returning to a high level of performance in their lives. In his practice, Charlie combines traditional hands on manual therapy care with a novel mind-body approach to treat a wide range of clients including some of the best runners, cyclists, rock climbers, and CrossFitters in the world.
Charlie co-created the course "Beyond Pain Education" with Dr Howard Schubiner to educate and mentor clinicians who are traditionally body oriented how to transition toward a more psychosocially informed approach to pain and function.
He’s a content creator appearing on Podcasts, Instagram, his channel on YouTube, and is active on social media supporting people in pain. He's launching a course aimed at athletes struggling to overcome pain to improve performance.
Charlie consults in the technology space, currently with Lin Health, a digital health platform that aims to scale evidence based pain care and he serves on the medical advisory board for "The Better Mind Center".
