Chiro Hustle

INTRODUCING PHIL GOLINSKY DC In this milestone 700th episode of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, James Chester reconnects with Dr. Philip Golinsky; CEO of RxWellness Spine & Health for a wide-ranging, powerful conversation that every chiropractor needs to hear. With seven clinics and a $12 million organization under his belt, Dr. Phil reveals what it really takes to scale a practice, develop principled chiropractors, and stay ahead of the cultural curve in healthcare. From corporate wellness to chiropractic politics to cultivating the next generation of docs, this episode blends bold truth with timeless strategy. https://chirohustle.com/chiropractic-business-making-impacts-with-dr-phil-golinsky-dc-chiro-hustle-podcast-700/ HIGHLIGHTS ●      Dr. Phil shares how he grew RxWellness into a $12 million, multi-clinic practice, earning a spot on the Inc. 5000 in both 2023 and 2024. ●      Learn how he's mentored over 500 chiropractors and what his rigorous internal training process looks like. ●      Why only 10% of DCs who apply get hired at RxWellness. ●      A candid breakdown of why chiropractic colleges are failing future docs and what must change. ●      Insight into his monthly "hot seat" training sessions and why clarity of communication is the cornerstone of trust. ●      How RFK Jr.'s appointment to HHS and the shifting cultural pendulum are creating huge opportunities for natural healthcare. ●      Why state-level political involvement is the key to protecting medical freedom and chiropractic autonomy. ABOUT DR. PHILIP GOLINSKY, DC Dr. Philip Golinsky, DC, Founder & CEO of RxWellness Spine & Health. With more than 25 years of experience and over 250,000 patients served, he leads one of the fastest-growing chiropractic organizations in the U.S. DIVING INTO... Corporate Wellness and Cultural Momentum Dr. Phil shares how his wife’s former work with Pfizer and AstraZeneca helped them foresee the rising demand for natural healthcare. Years before the pandemic, Big Pharma insiders already anticipated the cultural shift and now, with RFK Jr. in a major HHS role, the opportunity for chiropractic to lead is bigger than ever. Building an Elite Chiropractic Team With 28 doctors on staff, Dr. Phil details why RxWellness only hires the top 10% of applicants. His process includes 6-week intensive training, 500+ reps per technique, and monthly evaluations under pressure. Associates aren’t just onboarded, they’re transformed. As he says, "You should be paying me for what I’m going to give you in six weeks." Protecting the Profession at the Political Level Dr. Phil unpacks how he grew his state association by 140% through sheer hustle and outreach. He underscores the power of local political involvement, emphasizing that winning votes often come down to a few dozen supporters. "State-level laws shape your practice far more than national ones," he says. Strategic relationships with future governors and legislators are how we future-proof chiropractic. Fixing the Chiropractic Education Crisis Dr. Phil doesn’t hold back on his critique of chiropractic education today. He points to the decline in hands-on experience, passion, and technique wars that once shaped elite chiropractors. He challenges the profession to return to fundamentals, citing Reggie Gold, Arno Burnier, and Fred Barge as essential voices for any DC looking to reclaim the profession's soul. CLOSING THOUGHT If chiropractors are to lead the health revolution, they must train harder, speak louder, and reconnect with the very reasons they got into this profession. As Dr. Phil reminds us, "You might be the one who gives a life-changing adjustment that defines chiropractic for someone forever. So make it count." _________________________________________ #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropract

INTRODUCING DR. MAXWELL ERIKSEN DC In this inspiring episode of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, we meet Dr. Maxwell Eriksen, a second-generation chiropractor with deep roots in the profession. Raised in Elizabethtown, KY, Dr. Eriksen shares his story of being literally adjusted into life, growing up in a chiropractic household, and choosing to carry the torch himself. This episode dives into family legacy, freedom of career choice, and the power of medical freedom and diversified entrepreneurship. HIGHLIGHTS ●      Dr. Eriksen’s first adjustment happened at birth when he wasn’t breathing ●      Grew up with a chiropractor father and multiple siblings in the profession ●      Studied at Palmer College of Chiropractic, practicing primarily Gonstead technique ●      Believes in imaging and x-rays to deliver accurate, ethical care ●      Opened a Ninja Warrior gym and a comic book shop alongside chiropractic ●      Advocates for freedom in how chiropractors practice and live their lives ●      Offers critical advice for chiropractic students on learning styles, practice, and technique ABOUT DR.

A graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic, he blends traditional Gonstead principles with a modern lifestyle that includes operating a gym and a comic book store. His mission: stay passionate, stay diverse, and serve well. FOLLOWING FAMILY FOOTSTEPS WITH PURPOSE Dr. Eriksen was literally born into chiropractic. He recounts his father adjusting him moments after birth, reviving him from a motionless state. It was clear from the beginning that chiropractic wasn’t just a profession in his family, it was a legacy. Growing up surrounded by chiropractic conversations, techniques, and principles, Max knew early on that his life would follow this path. THE POWER OF DIVERSIFICATION AND FREEDOM After burning out from six-day workweeks, Dr. Eriksen decided to restructure his life. Instead of walking away from chiropractic, he leaned into it with fresh eyes, while also opening Twelve Gym (a Ninja Warrior facility) and Etown Comics. Practicing just two days a week, and now returning to a third, he models a balanced, intentional life that doesn't sacrifice income or impact. This shift reinvigorated his passion for chiropractic. IMAGING, ETHICS, AND MEDICAL FREEDOM Dr. Eriksen is a vocal advocate for X-rays and imaging in chiropractic care, sharing powerful patient stories, including one where he identified a life-threatening tumor missed by other providers. He takes a strong stance on maintaining standards that serve both patient and practitioner safety. His commitment to medical freedom underscores the importance of doing the right thing, even when it's not popular or mainstream. ADVICE FOR CHIROPRACTIC STUDENTS From techniques for mastering cervical chair adjustments to smart board prep and study habits, Dr. Eriksen offers gold-level insights for students in the trenches. He reminds them that grades don’t matter nearly as much as people skills, results, and integrity. Practicing early, using diverse learning strategies, and staying curious can make all the difference. FINAL TAKEAWAY “You’re going to use your body the rest of your life. You should probably take care of it.”

It's a call to preserve something real and powerful in healthcare: hands-on care, open conversation, and freedom to choose. The future of chiropractic, and maybe healthcare at large, depends on it. _________________________________________ #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropracticdubai #chiropracticlifestyle #chiropracticforlife #chiropracticajustment #chiropracticforkids #chiropracticrocks #chiropracticphotos #chiropractictreatment #chiropracticforeveryone #chiropracticadjustments #chiropracticbenefits #chiropracticfirst #chiropracticseminar #chiropracticinstrument #chiropracticbiophysics #chiropracticstudent #chiropracticcampbelltown #chiropractichealthmonth

This week on the Chiro Hustle Podcast, James Chester sits down with Dr Zsolt Egey-Samu DC, a seasoned chiropractor, entrepreneur, and mentor who has scaled multiple seven-figure practices across international borders.  From his roots in Canada to his new life and thriving practice in Arizona, Dr Zsolt shares hard-earned lessons about practice building, associate relationships, and what it truly means to lead from the heart while building sustainable business systems. This episode is a must-listen for any chiropractor looking to reclaim their time, rewire their approach to leadership, and realign with their deeper purpose. HIGHLIGHTS ● Dr Zsolt shares the raw and redemptive story of how chiropractic saved his life after a traumatic accident as a teen. ● He breaks down the dangers of pushing associates into a "CEO" role when they’re actually wired as caregivers and how this mismatch tanks many offices. ● The real truth behind why most chiropractors are shackled to their business (and how to break free). ● The power of building your personal board of directors instead of relying on a single mentor. ● How the Remarkable Practice and CEO-level systems are changing the game for chiropractic leaders. ● An unforgettable miracle story: a patient given 24 hours to live who walked out of the hospital after one atlas adjustment. ABOUT DR ZSOLT EGEY-SAMU DC Dr Zsolt Egey-Samu is a chiropractor, entrepreneur, and lecturer now practicing in Chandler, Arizona. With experience scaling seven-figure practices across borders, he's known for combining clinical excellence with visionary business acumen. He’s a member of EO, the Ultimate Achievers Club, and The Remarkable Practice. FREEDOM THROUGH INFRASTRUCTURE Rather than stay shackled to their businesses, Dr Zsolt and his wife have leveraged coaching and systems to buy back their time. Through his work with the Remarkable Practice, he now helps other clinic owners do the same. Whether it’s EOS-style KPIs, developing team trust, or identifying caregiver vs. CEO wiring, Zsolt shows that scaling isn’t about working harder, it’s about building systems that let your business breathe without you. MIRACLE STORIES THAT MATTER One of the most moving moments in the interview was the story of Joanne, a woman given 24 hours to live who received one atlas adjustment... and walked out of the hospital days later. Zsolt shares many patient transformations like this, but he insists his favorite miracles are the quiet ones: the kids who never have to go on 25 medications because their nervous systems are clear from the start. FINAL TAKEAWAY “You need to know what you’re built for, and find the environment that honors it.” _________________________________________ #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropracticdubai #chiropracticlifestyle #chiropracticforlife #chiropracticajustment #chiropracticforkids #chiropracticrocks #chiropracticphotos #chiropractictreatment #chiropracticforeveryone #chiropracticadjustments #chiropracticbenefits #chiropracticfirst #chiropracticseminar #chiropracticinstrument #chiropracticbiophysics #chiropracticstudent #chiropracticcampbelltown #chiropractichealthmonth

Dave Mager returns to the Chiro Hustle Podcast in episode 693, bringing a legacy of chiropractic advocacy, motivational leadership, and over 40 years of dedication to the profession. From his roots as a coach to his evolution as a nationally-recognized motivational speaker, Dave shares powerful stories, marketing wisdom, and mindset strategies for chiropractors and entrepreneurs alike. In this episode, we unpack the enduring power of medical freedom, the future of chiropractic care, and how to live and lead with passion.

ABOUT DAVE MAGER CEO of Mager & Associates, is a nationally-known motivational speaker and chiropractic advocate who has managed multiple clinics and trained screening teams across the world. His energetic and relatable speaking style has made him a favorite at conferences and within the chiropractic community. DIVING INTO DAVE MAGER'S MESSAGE Marketing Through Connection, Not Conversion Dave explains how chiropractic marketing shouldn’t be about pressure or gimmicks. His decades of experience show that building trust through education, empathy, and clarity transforms skeptics into advocates. When people understand the why, they are far more likely to take action. Dave’s mantra: "If it makes sense, they move forward. If it doesn't, they won’t." The Case for Medical Freedom and Patient Empowerment A major thread throughout this episode is Dave's stance on freedom of speech and medical freedom. In a time when patients are bombarded with one-size-fits-all solutions, Dave argues that chiropractic offers an individualized, drug-free path that empowers people to take control of their health. He testifies to the power of educating the public, not just adjusting them. Legacy and Leadership Now in his 70s, Dave reflects on how he's helped chiropractors not only build practices but become better people. With over 7,000 attendees impacted through his trainings and countless coaching clients, he stresses that personal growth and professional success go hand-in-hand. His message: Heal yourself first to lead with clarity and compassion. The Game Face Philosophy Dave's signature "GAME FACE" approach is more than a motivational tagline. It's a reminder to show up fully, lead with integrity, and stay positive no matter what life throws your way. In a world full of distraction and disconnection, GAME FACE reminds chiropractors to serve with focus and passion. CLOSING THOUGHT "Knowledge is potential power. But wisdom is knowledge rightly applied." _________________________________________ #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropracticdubai #chiropracticlifestyle #chiropracticforlife #chiropracticajustment #chiropracticforkids #chiropracticrocks #chiropracticphotos #chiropractictreatment #chiropracticforeveryone #chiropracticadjustments #chiropracticbenefits #chiropracticfirst #chiropracticseminar #chiropracticinstrument #chiropracticbiophysics #chiropracticstudent #chiropracticcampbelltown #chiropractichealthmonth

Jimmy Choi, co-founder of Bridge Financial, joins Chiro Hustle to unpack a long-overdue topic: business valuation and legacy planning for chiropractors. In this episode, Jimmy and James dive into the mechanics of buying, selling, optimizing, and even exiting a chiropractic practice; all without compromising the values the profession was built upon. For chiropractors who are nearing retirement, feeling stuck, or just wanting to get ahead of the curve, this episode delivers a practical playbook for turning your practice into a high-value asset. HIGHLIGHTS ● 98% of small business owners don't know what their practice is worth. ● Jimmy explains why chiropractors must treat their business like a legacy, not just a job. ● Bridge Financial uses AI and data to deliver instant practice valuations and business health scores. ● Learn why NOW is the best time to prepare for a future sale, even if it's years away. ● Discover how associates and new grads can leverage legacy practices for success. ● Hear the biggest mistakes DCs make when trying to exit their practice. ● "We're educators first.

Now, his focus is empowering chiropractors to grow or exit their practices with clarity, strategy, and legacy in mind. DIVING INTO LEGACY, VALUATION, AND FREEDOM Redefining the Exit Plan  Most chiropractors don’t sell their practice because they don’t know where to go or who to trust. Jimmy and his team are out to change that. Whether you're one year or ten years from retirement, Bridge Financial helps DCs prepare with certified valuations, practice health diagnostics, and strategic exit mapping. Why Business Health Matters  Would you buy a home without an inspection? Then why sell a practice without knowing its true health? Jimmy introduces the Business Health Score; a holistic snapshot that measures a clinic's strengths and weaknesses, from lead generation to operational efficiency. It's a wake-up call that every chiropractor needs. Freedom of Choice, Backed by Data  In a world where freedom is under constant pressure, the freedom to grow, sell, or transition your practice on your terms is revolutionary. Jimmy and James explore how data transparency and strategic prep return the power to the chiropractor, rather than surrendering it to brokers or blind market conditions. Helping the New Guard Rise Up  This episode isn’t just for those looking to exit. Jimmy shares how new grads and struggling docs can plug into legacy practices and build successful futures. It's not always about starting from scratch. Sometimes it's about stepping into something already great, with a plan to make it even better. CLOSING THOUGHT Legacy isn't built overnight, and it sure isn't sold in a panic. Jimmy Choi offers a rare look at how to turn chiropractic passion into lasting value. As James says best, "You're just one story away... Keep hustling." _________________________________________ #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropracticdubai #chiropracticlifestyle #chiropracticforlife #chiropracticajustment #chiropracticforkids #chiropracticrocks #chiropracticphotos #chiropractictreatment #chiropracticforeveryone #chiropracticadjustments #chiropracticbenefits #chiropracticfirst #chiropracticseminar #chiropracticinstrument #chiropracticbiophysics #chiropracticstudent #chiropracticcampbelltown #chiropractichealthmonth

In episode 691 of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, James Chester welcomes Dr. Jason Alviene, Vice President of Operations at 100% Chiropractic. With over 25 years in the field, Dr. Jason brings a unique perspective that bridges hands-on chiropractic care with large-scale operations leadership. This episode covers everything from corporate chiropractic strategy to mindset, communication, and why hospitality might be one of the most underrated tools in a chiropractor’s toolkit. HIGHLIGHTS • From massage therapist to Vice President of Operations, Dr. Alviene shares the pivotal moment that sent him down the chiropractic path. • Why hospitality experience might matter more than previous clinical experience when hiring CAs. • The importance of making it about the you, not the we - aka “The Paris Syndrome”. • His advice for new DCs: develop people skills through high-end service roles and communication training. • Why follow-up and lead management are make-or-break skills in modern practice growth. • Thoughts, traumas, and toxins - and why the “thoughts” piece is often ignored in chiropractic care. • A compelling vision for the future: cash-based practices, preceptorships, and a new wave of hands-on, competent adjusters. ABOUT DR. JASON ALVIENE Dr. Jason Alviene, DC, MS, is the Vice President of Operations at 100% Chiropractic and a long-time educator in chiropractic, massage therapy, and sports medicine.  With experience ranging from The Joint Chiropractic to academia, Dr. Alviene brings a wide-angle lens to the profession with a focus on operational excellence and patient-centric care. DIVING INTO ... CORPORATE CHIROPRACTIC OPERATIONS Dr. Alviene’s current role is trailblazing a new path in chiropractic corporate leadership. As 100% Chiropractic’s first-ever VP of Operations, he works closely with doctor-owned and non-doctor-owned offices to streamline systems and amplify patient care. His approach is simple yet powerful: empower the team, clarify the message, and lead with service. THE POWER OF COMMUNICATION AND HOSPITALITY A standout moment in this episode is the concept of “The Paris Syndrome.” Dr. Jason challenges chiropractors to stop saying “we do this” and start saying “you get to experience this.” His emphasis on language highlights the subconscious psychological impact of personalized care. He draws a compelling connection between successful CAs and backgrounds in hospitality, like bartending and concierge service, where reading and connecting with people is second nature. TACKLING THOUGHTS, TRAUMAS, AND TOXINS While most chiropractors are trained to address traumas and toxins, Dr. Alviene points out that the “thoughts” element is often neglected. He advocates for chiropractors to help patients connect the dots between emotional blocks and their physical health. His perspective? Adjust the spine, yes, but also help guide the mindset. This is a bold yet necessary expansion of chiropractic’s role in holistic health. MARKETING AND LEAD FOLLOW-UP: A PRACTICE GROWTH ESSENTIAL Dr. Jason doesn’t shy away from practical strategy either. He emphasizes the critical nature of timely lead response, ongoing follow-up, and creating systems that support high conversion rates. His advice: call every lead like they’ve already said yes and never assume a patient is a “no” until they tell you directly. Smart, sharp, and service-oriented. CLOSING THOUGHT  “If a patient isn’t thriving, it might not just be the subluxation. It might be the story they’re telling themselves.” _________________________________________ #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropracticdubai #chiropracticlifestyle #chiropracticforlife #chiropracticajustment #chiropracticforkid

In this episode of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, James Chester welcomes back a long-time friend and guest, Dr Larry Goodman, for his third appearance on the show. With nearly five decades in chiropractic and over 30 years as a coach, Dr Goodman opens up about personal transformation, the importance of coaching in the profession, and how removing interference; whether structural, emotional, or mental can change lives. Together, he and James explore the evolution of chiropractic, the realities facing new graduates, and why protecting freedom of speech and medical freedom is critical to the future of health care. Highlights·      How a childhood battle with asthma and allergies led Dr Goodman to chiropractic and ultimately transformed his life. ·      The priceless mentorship lessons that shaped his career, including a powerful challenge from Dr Miles O’Reilly: “Now go out and heal the world.” ·      The financial reality for today’s chiropractic graduates, and how debt is shaping their career choices. ·      Why Dr Goodman sees himself as an “attitudinal and emotional chiropractor” who clears interference in the mind as well as the body. ·      The neuro-emotional technique (NET) approach and how it helps uncover hidden belief systems that keep people stuck. ·      The role of alcohol as a neurotoxin, and why his 23 years of sobriety have been life-changing both personally and professionally. ·      Why the breakdown of professional silos between chiropractic, medicine, and other disciplines is a positive sign for the future of patient care.

In this episode of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, host James Chester welcomes Hugh Liddle, known as Your Chiropractic Sales Wizard at Red Cap Sales Coaching and Elite Sales Academy. With over 54 years of in-the-field sales and management experience, Hugh shares how chiropractors can remove the “icky and scary” from sales, engage more meaningfully with prospects, and convert at a much higher rate; all while protecting the freedom to practice on their own terms. This conversation goes beyond typical sales talk. It’s about communicating in a way that honors your values, preserves patient trust, and invites people into chiropractic care for life. Highlights ● Why “you statements” are one of the fastest ways to shift a sales conversation into a patient’s world. ● The three essential qualifications every new practice member should meet before beginning care. ● How asking better, open-ended questions can uncover a patient’s true motivations. ● The impact of scripting and role-playing on conversion rates (including one practice that jumped from 32% to 83% in just two months). ● Why chiropractic is the “Rolex of healthcare” and how to help the public see it that way. ● The evolution of sales in the digital age and how chiropractors should adapt. ● The freedom that comes from working only with people who truly value your care. About Hugh Liddle Hugh Liddle is Your Chiropractic Sales Wizard at Red Cap Sales Coaching and Elite Sales Academy, where chiropractors learn to make selling easy, fun, and profitable. Drawing on more than five decades of real-world sales experience, Hugh’s approach is rooted in authentic connection and proven strategies that work in today’s environment. Based in Sebring, Florida, Hugh is also an author, speaker, and musician. Diving Into… Mastering “You Statements” in Patient Conversations Most chiropractors love to educate, and that’s a good thing. But Hugh points out that the sales conversation isn’t the time for “we do this” or “I do that.” Instead, shift the focus with statements like “You can have,” “You can enjoy,” or “You can get back to.” Patients care most about what’s in it for them, so speak directly to their desired outcomes. Qualifying for Care Not everyone is ready to become a long-term practice member. Hugh explains the three must-haves: 1. The desire and ability to get well. 2. The resources to invest in care. 3. Openness to following recommendations. Without these, a patient is unlikely to commit, and that can harm both their results and your reputation. Why Sales is a Form of Freedom Sales done right aren't pushy or manipulative. It’s an invitation for people to choose a healthcare path rooted in personal choice and responsibility, free from overreach or dependency on systems that limit options. In an age where medical freedom is a growing concern, knowing how to communicate your value clearly is more important than ever. From Skeptic to Advocate Hugh candidly shares his own shift from “I’ll come in when I hurt” to fully embracing regular chiropractic care. This change didn’t happen until a chiropractor explained the long-term benefits in a way that connected with him personally, a reminder that education works best when the timing is right. _________________________________________ #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropracticdubai #chiropracticlifestyle #chiropracticforlife #chiropracticajustment #chiropracticforkids #chiropracticrocks #chiropracticphotos #chiropractictreatment #chiropracticforeveryone #chiropracticadjustments #chiropracticbenefits #chiropracticfirst #chiropracticseminar #chiropracticinstrument #chiropracticbiophysics #chiropracticstudent #chiropracticcampbelltown #chiropractichealthmonth

In this fast-paced episode of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, host James Chester sits down with branding powerhouse Isaac Mashman. Isaac, a business strategist and founder of Mashman Consulting Group, joins the conversation to unpack the untapped power of personal branding, reputation management, and digital visibility for chiropractors. If you’re a chiropractor looking to rise above the noise and become the go-to practitioner in your city, this episode is a game-changer. HIGHLIGHTS ·      Why personal branding starts at birth and how to harness it with intention ·      The real difference between your personal brand and your practice brand ·      How reputation management can fuel referrals and retention ·      Tactical ways to boost Google reviews without breaking FTC rules ·      Why podcasting and public speaking are reputation accelerators ·      What Isaac calls the four reasons people engage with content (and how to use them to dominate locally) ·      Practical tips for becoming a subject matter expert that patients trust “You already have a personal brand. The question is: are you controlling the narrative or letting it run wild?” ABOUT ISAAC MASHMAN Isaac Mashman, businessman and founder of Mashman Consulting Group based in Little Rock, Arkansas, specializes in personal branding and reputation management. He is also an author, podcast host, private investor, and speaker known for helping individuals and businesses grow their digital presence with purpose. DIVING INTO PERSONAL VS. PRACTICE BRANDING Isaac makes it clear: your personal brand isn’t something you build, it’s something you reveal and refine. From your name to your beliefs, your brand began at birth. But many chiropractors miss the opportunity to intentionally shape it. When you understand that your practice brand is merely an extension of your personal brand, your messaging becomes more powerful and more human. This alignment leads to trust, visibility, and stronger community positioning. REPUTATION MANAGEMENT THAT BUILDS TRUST Reputation isn’t what you say about yourself—it’s what others say about you. Isaac breaks down how chiropractors can improve their online reputation ethically and effectively. Simple actions like responding to reviews and consolidating them on Google can exponentially boost your credibility. He also outlines a compliant way to generate more reviews and referrals without violating FTC guidelines. USING CONTENT TO WARM UP YOUR MARKET When prospective patients walk into your practice, would you rather they be cold or already warmed up and ready to engage? Isaac walks listeners through a powerful framework for creating content that informs, connects, entertains, and motivates. From back-crack videos to educational clips about pillows and posture, your content strategy can help close the gap between stranger and loyal patient. PODCASTING, PUBLIC SPEAKING, AND POSITIONING Isaac emphasizes that hosting or guesting on podcasts, speaking on stages, and writing articles are not vanity plays. They are branding assets. They speed up trust-building, demonstrate authority, and draw opportunities toward you. Chiropractors who step onto stages, digital or physical, accelerate their reach and become magnets for referrals, media, and new patients. CLOSING THOUGHT Branding isn’t a trend—it’s the foundation of your influence. Isaac Mashman delivers a wealth of strategic value that chiropractors can implement immediately to rise above obscurity and position themselves as leaders in their communities. Like This Article?

Introducing Saleem Musallam  Saleem, founder of Excite Medical and creator of the DRX9000® spinal decompression system, is revolutionizing the way chiropractors treat patients with severe spinal issues.  In this episode, we dive into how the DRX9000® stands out from traditional traction devices and how Saleem’s mission is empowering chiropractors to offer true, non-surgical alternatives for their patients. Highlights • Why the DRX9000® is the leading spinal decompression system backed by research and FDA clearance. • How Excite Medical supports chiropractors beyond the product: financing, training, and mastermind events. • The importance of bridging the gap between chiropractic and the medical community. • Saleem’s marketing workshops and how they help chiropractors strengthen their digital presence. • Insight into the growing failure rates of spine surgery and why decompression is a safer alternative. • A powerful reminder about patient safety, medical errors, and the importance of medical freedom. About Saleem Saleem is the founder and CEO of Excite Medical. Known for creating the DRX9000®, he partners with chiropractors worldwide to elevate patient care for those suffering from disc degeneration, herniations, and other spinal issues. Saleem’s leadership has built Excite Medical into a research-driven company with a strong community of chiropractors. Bridging Chiropractic and Medical Communities Saleem believes that chiropractic must be recognized as a viable alternative to surgery for severe spinal cases. He has raised over $700,000 for decompression research at the University of South Florida, which has caught the attention of neurosurgeons and other medical professionals. By grounding decompression in research, Saleem is helping chiropractic become a trusted option across the healthcare spectrum. Empowering Chiropractors Through Education Excite Medical is not just about selling equipment. Saleem runs multiple marketing workshops each year, teaching chiropractors how to optimize their online presence, utilize tools like Google pixels and AI, and uncover blind spots in their patient acquisition strategies. These workshops give doctors confidence to connect with more patients while maintaining their independence. The Case for Decompression in Practice Decompression with the DRX9000® attracts patients who might otherwise head straight to surgery. With proven results and a high case value, decompression can transform both patient outcomes and practice growth. Saleem emphasized that true decompression must be distinguished from generic traction devices and that proper patient examination and qualification are essential. Closing Thought As Saleem shared, “You have to be convinced to be convincing.” When chiropractors believe in the value they offer, patients will see it too. This episode is a wake-up call about the dangers of unnecessary surgeries and the importance of preserving options for conservative, non-invasive care. _________________________________________  #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropracticdubai #chiropracticlifestyle #chiropracticforlife #chiropracticajustment #chiropracticforkids #chiropracticrocks #chiropracticphotos #chiropractictreatment #chiropracticforeveryone #chiropracticadjustments #chiropracticbenefits #chiropracticfirst #chiropracticseminar #chiropracticinstrument #chiropracticbiophysics #chiropracticstudent #chiropracticcampbelltown #chiropractichealthmonth

This episode features Jenna Quentin, founder of Adjust Your Media Agency and host of the podcast What Chiropractic Doesn’t Cure: Stories of Innate. Jenna isn’t a chiropractor, but her connection to the profession runs deep. In this conversation with host James Chester, she shares her passion for chiropractic advocacy, her journey as a writer and storyteller, and how she helps principled chiropractors grow their influence through consistent, aligned content. HIGHLIGHTS • Jenna shares how chiropractic radically changed the life of her sensory-sensitive, dyslexic child—and how it healed more than just his body. • She reveals the emotional weight and guilt that came from making health decisions as a young mom in France, and how chiropractic helped her reclaim confidence in her intuition. • Jenna talks about transitioning from journalism to a full-time chiropractic storyteller and social media strategist. • Why social media is more about community than clicks—and what “five-mile famous” really means. • Learn Jenna’s metaphor for organic content strategy: your social media is like your peripheral nerves, your owned content is the spine, and the brain? That’s new patient conversions. • Hear why she believes podcasting might be the most impactful thing she’s created all year. ABOUT JENNA Founder of Adjust Your Media Jenna is a passionate advocate for chiropractic and a powerful storytelling strategist. Through her agency and podcast, she helps chiropractors build connection and visibility through content that reflects their core values. Based on personal experience with chiropractic’s life-changing impact, Jenna brings empathy, heart, and purpose to everything she creates. DIVING INTO… The Power of Medical Freedom and Intuition Jenna’s story begins not with a business, but a deeply personal transformation. Living in France as a young mom, she found herself wrestling with state-mandated medical procedures and a traumatic birth experience. Without access to chiropractic care abroad, she intuitively knew something was off in her body—and waited until returning to the U.S. to get adjusted. This intuitive pull toward chiropractic, paired with the awakening of her voice around medical freedom, sparked a new mission in her life. Why Social Media is a Vitalistic Strategy Jenna isn’t just “doing content.” She’s helping chiropractors create ecosystems of trust and connection online. Forget empty metrics or short-term campaigns; she teaches a sustainable, organic approach to digital presence. Her team focuses on creating content that gets shared, saved, and remembered—the kind that builds a brand patients want to refer others to. She reminds DCs: your social media is not a gimmick, it’s part of your wellness care plan for your business. Creating with Purpose: Adjust Your Media and Storytelling From blogging and article writing to content calendars and workshops, Jenna’s work is focused on helping principled DCs tell their story in a way that aligns with their mission. Whether it’s short-form reels or long-form email newsletters, her goal is always the same: connection. And as she says, if you’re not having fun with it, it won’t work. Authenticity and enjoyment are key. Why Her Podcast Might Be Her Greatest Contribution Yet Her podcast What Chiropractic Doesn’t Cure is more than a content channel. It’s a storytelling engine for chiropractic. Featuring interviews with principled DCs like Dr. Tim Young and Dr. Tony Ebel, it weaves together powerful testimonies and inspires other chiropractors to speak up. It’s also an invitation for the public to hear real outcomes and understand chiropractic through human stories. CLOSING THOUGHT Want to know what it means to really connect with your community, share truth online, and grow a principled practice without selling out? This episode is a must-listen. _________________________________________ #chiropractic #

INTRODUCING GARY BARNES Meet Gary Barnes, a force of entrepreneurial insight, media savvy, and lived resilience. In this episode of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, Gary sits down with host James Chester to explore the intersections of chiropractic, media exposure, professional speaking, and the transformative power of storytelling. Gary is not only the father of a chiropractor, but he also carries a deep respect for the profession, seeing its potential to touch lives when properly communicated to the masses. https://chirohustle.com/leverage-yourself-as-a-professional-speaker-with-gary-barnes-chiro-hustle-podcast-683/ HIGHLIGHTS ·      Gary shares how chiropractors can become high-impact professional speakers by tapping into their “so that” benefit stories rather than just technical explanations. ·      He explains why writing a book instantly elevates your authority and opens media doors. ·      Gary breaks down the psychology of public speaking fear and how to channel nerves into presence. ·      He redefines sales as service and trust, not closing tactics. ·      A standout quote: “We forget facts, we remember stories.” ·      His signature adversity story - a multiple sclerosis diagnosis with a 10-year death sentence - became a life-defining breakthrough. ·      Gary encourages DCs to focus on the future their patients want, not just the pain they’re in today. ABOUT GARY BARNES Gary Barnes, The Breakthrough Business Mastery Coach, is a high-performance strategist, international speaker, and bestselling author. He has built multiple businesses generating over $300 million and has been featured across major media. Diagnosed with MS in 1988, Gary has since become a living embodiment of resilience and purpose. DIVING INTO… From Chiropractic Roots to Media Reach Gary’s son is a chiropractor, and through that connection, Gary developed a unique perspective on how chiropractic can impact more lives - not just through adjustments, but through message mastery. He challenges chiropractors to step into the spotlight and embrace visibility, not shy from it. The Power of Your “So That” Story Most chiropractors get stuck talking about techniques. Gary flips the script: Speak to the transformation you provide. It’s not about decompression therapy - it’s about helping a man ditch his cane and walk on stage again. When chiropractors communicate the “so that” behind what they do, they connect on a human level. Media, Messaging, and Magnifying Your Voice Gary’s advice for getting on mainstream platforms? Become interesting. His book title “How a Beaver Saved My Life” is a case in point. When you show up ready to serve, not sell, media welcomes you back. And yes, having a book changes the game. From Fear to Freedom on Stage Despite giving over 1,000 talks, Gary still gets nervous. His secret? Make the butterflies fly in formation. Speak from your truth. And remember: if you’re listening to your audience instead of performing at them, you’ll always connect. Service-First Sales and Speaking Forget “selling” - Gary teaches DCs to build communities through trust and service. Be seen, be safe, be relevant. That’s how people stay, pay, and refer. Speaking is the fastest way to build that connection. The Adventure of Becoming More From firewalks to P-51 fighter flights, Gary embodies transformation through courage. His personal motto - “launch and adjust, elevate and separate” - is a call for chiropractors to stop waiting and start stepping into their next level. CLOSING THOUGHT “Please take that step into the unknown… Go out and serve. There’s a lot of people that need you, want you. They just don’t know you’re there.” Like This Article?

Marketing is NOT a Vending Machine with Sam Carlson - Chiro Hustle Podcast 682 In episode 682 of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, host James Chester dives into the deep end of chiropractic marketing with serial entrepreneur and innovative marketer, Sam Carlson. As the co-founder of both Patient Stream and UpHex, Sam has revolutionized lead generation and digital marketing for chiropractors and agencies alike. This episode isn’t just about tools and tactics—it’s a hard-hitting look at what actually works in chiropractic marketing today and what doesn’t. HIGHLIGHTS • Sam explains why marketing is NOT a vending machine and how that outdated mindset sabotages patient acquisition. • He shares the “Qualified Lead Formula” and breaks down the anatomy of a high-converting ad campaign. • Discover how one client, Dr. Ray Peavey, doubled his volume and added $55K in cash using just one powerful shift in lead handling. • Learn why niche-specific ads (like for neuropathy or spinal decompression) outperform general chiropractic offers. • Sam reveals how UpHex enables three-click Facebook ads so simple, even his 10-year-old can launch them. • Hear the case study that got Patient Stream featured by Meta and what that means for your clinic. ABOUT SAM CARLSON Sam Carlson, Serial Entrepreneur & Co-Founder of UpHex, is known for reshaping the way chiropractic clinics attract and convert leads. Through Patient Stream and now UpHex, he empowers thousands of agencies and small businesses with automated, results-driven advertising. He’s also the author of “New Patient School.” DIVING INTO… Marketing is NOT a Vending Machine Sam debunks the myth that digital ads work like magic machines. Chiropractors often expect to plug in a campaign and instantly get new patients. But real marketing takes positioning, patience, and psychology. Sam uses a golf analogy: your ad is the driver that gets the ball in play—but what gets the ball into the hole is real human interaction. The Qualified Lead Formula Sam introduces a simple but powerful framework for chiropractors: go niche, speak directly to real problems, and target based on pain points, not generalities. Forget the “$21 exam and x-ray” offers. Instead, talk to the sciatica sufferer who can’t walk their dog or the neuropathy patient whose feet go numb by noon. Meet Them Where They Are Rather than educating cold audiences about the philosophy of chiropractic in an ad, Sam insists: speak their language first. Address their lived pain experience. It’s about strategic empathy—and it’s what turns browsers into believers. How One Phone Call Saved a Clinic The episode closes with a mic-drop moment: the story of Dr. Ray Peavey, who was on the verge of losing his 30-year practice. After six weeks of floundering with leads, Dr. Peavey got on the phone himself. One real conversation converted into a $4,500 care plan. He repeated the process, doubled his visits, and found new life in practice. CLOSING THOUGHT Marketing isn’t about magic funnels or secret buttons. It’s about showing up real, specific, and human—again and again. _________________________________________ #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropracticdubai #chiropracticlifestyle #chiropracticforlife #chiropracticajustment #chiropracticforkids #chiropracticrocks #chiropracticphotos #chiropractictreatment #chiropracticforeveryone #chiropracticadjustments #chiropracticbenefits #chiropracticfirst #chiropracticseminar #chiropracticinstrument #chiropracticbiophysics #chiropracticstudent #chiropracticcampbelltown #chiropractichealthmonth

Dr. Otto Janke returns to the Chiro Hustle Podcast after a five-year hiatus for an unforgettable discussion about the most urgent and transformational topic facing our profession: longevity. In this compelling episode, Dr. Janke shares the foundational principles behind his “Empire Longevity” movement and why it matters more than ever. James and Otto dive deep into the sacred trust, the nervous system’s role in optimal health, and how chiropractic can—and must—be seen as the catalyst for more, better years. This episode is more than philosophy; it’s a call to action for chiropractors to lead the charge into a healthier, more empowered future. HIGHLIGHTS ·      Dr. Janke introduces his vision of “Empire Longevity”—a practical and principled approach to health and longevity. ·      Explains why the nervous system must be optimized as the foundation of any longevity plan. ·      Presents published research connecting chiropractic adjustments with improved heart rate variability and therefore, increased lifespan. ·      Shares a bold, paradigm-shifting equation: Chiropractic → HRV → Longevity. ·      Offers a deeply personal anecdote about the six words his mother shared before her passing that inspired his mission. ·      Advocates for starting longevity from preconception, expanding care to babies and pregnant women. ·      Urges chiropractors to become better communicators and leaders, not just adjusters. DIVING INTO… Staying True to Chiropractic Principles Otto doesn’t mince words—chiropractic is about life, not just pain. He stresses that without an optimized nervous system, even the best lifestyle practices fall short. Subluxation correction is not a secondary consideration in longevity—it’s the foundation. The Nervous System as the Cornerstone Using both personal conviction and published data, Dr. Janke makes the case that chiropractic must reclaim its role in the longevity conversation. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) becomes a quantifiable bridge between the adjustment and long-term vitality. If HRV improves with adjustments, and HRV is a marker of longevity, then chiropractic is essential to living a long, vibrant life. Building More, Better Years Dr. Janke challenges the profession to reframe health not as the absence of disease, but as the presence of vibrancy and years lived well. From sleep to motion to food and emotional health—these are all supercharged by a nervous system free of interference. His three guiding criteria? Reasonable. Effective. Cost-effective. Leading the Future Through Communication One of the most urgent challenges facing chiropractors today, Otto argues, is poor communication. Many don’t know how to tell the story—or even what the story is. He calls for schools to mandate communication training and urges every DC to hone their storytelling skills. Because when patients understand, they stay. CLOSING THOUGHT “More, better years” isn’t a slogan—it’s a strategy. One grounded in the nervous system, fueled by subluxation correction, and powered by a profession ready to step into its full role in humanity’s future. ----------- #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropracticdubai #chiropracticlifestyle #chiropracticforlife #chiropracticajustment #chiropracticforkids #chiropracticrocks #chiropracticphotos #chiropractictreatment #chiropracticforeveryone #chiropracticadjustments #chiropracticbenefits #chiropracticfirst #chiropracticseminar #chiropracticinstrument #chiropracticbiophysics #chiropracticstudent #chiropracticcampbelltown #chiropractichealthmonth

INTRODUCING DR. JOHN OHM DC Dr. John Ohm DC joins the Chiro Hustle Podcast to bring a fresh yet deeply philosophical perspective to our profession. Born into a chiropractic family, John not only continues a legacy but redefines it by integrating German New Medicine with subluxation-based chiropractic.  In this episode, we dive into his upbringing, the roots of the Webster Technique, and his pivotal role as editor of Pathways to Family Wellness magazine. If you’re a DC who believes in protecting the Sacred Trust, this conversation is your kind of jam. https://chirohustle.com/german-new-medicine-and-growing-up-in-a-chiro-family-with-dr-john-ohm-dc-chiro-hustle-podcast-680/ HIGHLIGHTS • How German New Medicine overlays seamlessly with chiropractic philosophy, identifying “subluxations in the brain” and their effect on organ function. • The idea of biological programs of adaptation—and how stress-induced lesions in the brain manifest as symptoms in the body. • Why inflammation and disease may not be breakdowns, but signs of healing in motion. • The influence of DD Palmer’s 1910 work and how Dr. Ohm sees its fulfillment in modern discoveries. • The origin and impact of Pathways magazine, now on its 83rd issue. • The importance of birth skills and how they tie directly into the principles behind the Webster Technique. • The role of chiropractic in family dynamics, pregnancy, and pediatric care. DIVING INTO… The Brain-Body Connection, Reimagined Dr. Ohm explains how German New Medicine identifies lesions in the brain (known as “hamer herds”) that mirror vertebral subluxations. These brain lesions—triggered by emotional or biological conflict shocks—initiate organ-specific adaptations that we typically interpret as disease. It’s a revelation that supports and amplifies the chiropractic principle: life expresses intelligence. Chiropractic Roots, Reignited Growing up in a family immersed in chiropractic, John’s journey is woven with tradition and vision. He shares how the early efforts of his late mother, co-founder of ICPA’s Pathways magazine, became the foundation for a movement. Her humble newsletter blossomed into a worldwide wellness publication that educates parents and practitioners alike. Birth Skills and the Webster Legacy John brings clarity to the often misunderstood Webster Technique—not merely for turning breech babies but as a neuromechanical tool to balance the mother’s pelvis and support optimal birth outcomes. He introduces the concept of birth skills as the missing half of the birth conversation and how Webster Technique sits at its epicenter. Chiropractic’s Future is Family In a world increasingly disconnected from natural processes, Dr. Ohm offers a vision of empowerment. When families understand how to participate actively in health and birth, supported by principled chiropractors, the profession’s future becomes not only viable—but vital. Like This Article?

INTRODUCING DR. NICK ATHENS DC This week on the Chiro Hustle Podcast, we sit down with a true chiropractic veteran, Dr. Nick Athens DC. With over four decades in the field, Dr. Athens brings not just a lifetime of clinical experience but also a powerful message for chiropractors about staying “locked in,” mastering their craft, and living the chiropractic lifestyle. We dive into his new book “To Health With You” and uncover his timeless wisdom for living a healthier, longer, and more purposeful life. HIGHLIGHTS ·      42 years of high-volume, subluxation-based practice in San Carlos, CA ·      Adjusted NFL legend Joe Montana pre-game, generating $1.5M in media exposure for chiropractic ·      First ICA Sports Chiropractor of the Year; former team chiropractor for the San Francisco Giants ·      Stresses that chiropractic care is as essential for mental health as it is for physical ·      Developed morning rituals and lifestyle habits that fuel longevity and peak performance ·      Shares insights from his book, which distills 750,000+ adjustments and 27,000+ patient experiences ·      Advocates for building a health-focused support team and staying engaged with state associations ABOUT DR. NICK ATHENS DC Dr. Nick Athens DC, based in San Carlos, California, has served the chiropractic community for over 42 years. Known for his work with elite athletes like Joe Montana and Barry Bonds, Dr. Athens is now focused on sharing longevity strategies through his book, public speaking, and continued patient care. STAYING LOCKED IN AFTER 4 DECADES Dr. Athens opens up about what it takes to stay passionate and effective in practice after 42 years. His secret? Daily discipline. He wakes at 4:30am to train, stays mentally and physically aligned, and continues to refine his technique and patient education. He views each adjustment as a performance, akin to a pro athlete stepping onto the field—and he emphasizes the power of being fully present with each patient. THE MENTAL-EMOTIONAL LINK TO CHIROPRACTIC One of the most compelling takeaways from this interview is Dr. Athens’ perspective on chiropractic’s impact on mental health. He explains how subluxation affects not just posture and pain but also a patient’s mood, self-esteem, and ability to engage in life. When you correct subluxations, you don’t just relieve symptoms—you reboot their system. It’s mind-body healing at its core. BUILDING A LIFESTYLE PRACTICE Rather than preaching health, Dr. Athens lives it. His practice is a testament to the idea that consistency in lifestyle and care delivers generational impact. His book, “To Health With You,” simplifies healthy aging into actionable steps, with chiropractic at the heart of the journey. It’s not just a manual for patients—it’s a blueprint for DCs to better serve and guide. SUPPORTING STATE ASSOCIATIONS AND BUILDING A TRIBE Dr. Athens passionately advocates for DCs to get involved with their state associations, not only to protect the profession legislatively but to recharge by being in community with other chiropractors. He also encourages doctors to help patients build their own support systems—a healthcare team that reinforces vitalistic living, much like a V-formation of geese. CLOSING THOUGHT “Would you pay to see yourself adjust? If the answer isn’t yes, it’s time to level up.” ------------------- #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropracticdubai #chiropracticlifestyle #chiropracticforlife #chiropracticajustment #chiropracticforkids #chiropracticrocks #chiropracticphotos #chiropractictreatment #chiropracticforeveryone #chiropracticadjustments #chiropracticbenefits #chiropracticfirst #chiropracticseminar #chiropracticinstrument #chiropracticbiophysics #chiropracticstudent #chiropracticcampbelltown #chiropractichealthmonth

Dr. Trevor Marum DC brings a refreshingly unique perspective to the world of chiropractic. In this powerful episode, he sits down with host James Chester to share what it was like becoming a chiropractor later in life—after a career in fitness and elite-level training.   From professional athlete to principled adjuster, Dr. Marum’s story is all about transformation, responsibility, and staying true to chiropractic’s sacred principles. This episode explores patient responsibility, technique diversity, subluxation-centered care, and why every DC should be teaching. HIGHLIGHTS •            Dr. Marum didn’t discover chiropractic until his 30s—a Life West upper cervical adjustment changed everything. •            He emphasizes the importance of patient responsibility and making the care process collaborative. •            Trained in multiple techniques, he uses everything from upper cervical to extremity adjusting. •            He runs a referral-only practice serving everyone from newborns to seniors. •            His passion for movement and lifestyle shines through both inside and outside the clinic. •            Advocates for ongoing patient education, community involvement, and lay lectures. •            Inspired by mentors like Dan Bronstein, John Bergman, and Paul Reed.   ABOUT DR. TREVOR MARUM DC Dr. Trevor Marum DC is a subluxation-centered chiropractor practicing in the Pacific Northwest. He blends upper cervical work with extremity techniques and neurological therapies to serve a diverse patient base—from newborns to seniors. Formerly a professional athlete and gym owner, he brings a deep reverence for movement, lifestyle, and innate healing.   DIVING INTO… Staying True to Chiropractic Principles Dr. Marum’s journey into chiropractic was sparked not by a miracle story, but by a deep physical awareness cultivated over years as an elite trainer and athlete. After one life-altering upper cervical adjustment, he knew chiropractic was his calling. He quickly realized that not all chiropractic schools honor the sacred trust or even teach about subluxation. He credits Life West with staying true to the philosophy.   The Power of Patient Responsibility In Dr. Marum’s practice, healing is a shared process. He sets expectations clearly: patients have homework. Whether it’s education, lifestyle changes, or pantry overhauls, his approach helps patients become active participants in their care. This patient ownership is crucial, especially when paired with community-building activities like in-house lectures and Q&A events.   Technique Matters: Tools for Every Body From knee-chest to muscle activation, Dr. Marum believes in mastering a variety of techniques. Why? Because every body is different. He discusses how misaligned ankles can affect skull positioning, or why adjusting babies isn’t the same as adjusting athletes. He tailors his care to the individual, never compromising on the art of the adjustment.   Building a Referral-Only Practice Dr. Marum didn’t rely on marketing gimmicks. Instead, he served powerfully and let results speak for themselves. Taking on complex cases and delivering miracles turned his patients into his greatest advocates. Today, his womb-to-tomb practice is built on trust, transformation, and teaching.   CLOSING THOUGHT “Chiropractic doesn’t cure anything. We simply correct subluxations, and the body does the rest.” _________________________________________ #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropracticdubai #chiropracticlifestyle #chiropracticforlife #chiropracticajustment #chiropracticforkids #chiropracticrocks #chiropracticphotos #chiropractictreatment #chiropracticforeveryone #chiropracticadjustments #chiropracticbenefits #chiropracticfirst #chiropracticseminar #chiropracticinstrument #chiropracticbiophysics

Whether you use lasers or decompression or shockwave - never stop adjusting, and never stop teaching the principle. His journey from patient to doctor began with four medications, which he no longer needed once he was under care. That transformation fuels his lifelong passion. The Power of Service Over Ego From working in parking lots at church to traveling to Asheville to serve volunteers, Dr. Surprenant shares how the best way to find purpose is to show up without ego. Serving others is what kept his fire alive, even when things were hard, and it continues to be his north star.

It wasn’t until someone told him the hard truth - “You suck because you have no coach” - that he found direction.

Final Takeaway “If your life sucks - go serve more.” Dr. Surprenant doesn’t just say it. He lives it. And it might just be the simplest, most powerful advice you’ll hear all year.

Dr. Young shares how it not only connects like-minded DCs, but also spurred others like Mile High and Chiro Fest to spring forth.

The Latin American Surge in Subluxation-Based Chiropractic From Mexico to Colombia, chiropractic is blossoming in Latin America with a vibrancy and purity often diluted in other markets.

Grassroots Growth & Strategic Practice Launching Marketing doesn't start on opening day.

INTRODUCING DR. MARK SANNA DC In this power-packed episode of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, James Chester sits down once again with Dr. Mark Sanna DC, CEO of Breakthrough Coaching. As a second-generation chiropractor and a true advocate for the profession, Dr. Sanna dives deep into the importance of leadership, community, and preserving the philosophical roots of chiropractic. From business building insights to the future of the profession, this conversation is a must-listen for any principled chiropractor looking to grow with integrity. HIGHLIGHTS ●      Dr. Sanna shares why no one will ever care more about your practice than you — and how to turn that truth into motivation. ●      A moving origin story: Dr. Sanna’s father overcame severe health challenges through chiropractic, launching a 69-year legacy. ●      Why building a business within a practice (rather than being handed one) created resilience and real-world growth skills. ●      The hard-earned lessons of mastering chiropractic business — not just the art of the adjustment. ●      Why financial literacy, tithing, and compound interest are essential tools for chiropractors. ●      Dr. Sanna's bold call for unity, leadership, and embracing community after the isolation of the pandemic. ●      The impact of organizations like the Foundation for Chiropractic Progress and the Chiropractic Future Strategic Plan.

He serves on the boards of several high-impact organizations, including the Foundation for Chiropractic Progress and the Chiropractic Future Strategic Plan Leadership Committee. DIVING INTO... Legacy, Leadership, and Chiropractic Roots Dr. Sanna’s story begins with family. Growing up adjusting his parents and even the family pets, his childhood was steeped in the sacred principles of chiropractic. His father, a first-generation American and chiropractic pioneer, overcame serious illness through chiropractic care. That legacy fueled Dr. Sanna’s passion—and informed his mission to ensure chiropractors never suffer financially for delivering such a powerful gift. From Adjustments to Business Mastery Despite being an exceptional adjuster, Dr. Sanna candidly admits his early ignorance around business management. His evolution came from necessity. He taught himself to read financial statements, understand investments, and grasp the power of compound interest. His message? Great hands aren’t enough—you need smart strategy to thrive. Community Over Isolation In a post-pandemic world, Dr. Sanna reminds us that while solitude can be a useful pause, true success requires connection. He calls on chiropractors to break out of the four walls of their practices and re-engage with each other. Whether through events, seminars, or coaching communities, he believes personal growth and professional momentum come from unity. Fueling the Future of Chiropractic Dr. Sanna is a strategic powerhouse helping lead two major initiatives: the Foundation for Chiropractic Progress and the Chiropractic Future Strategic Plan. Through national campaigns and powerful data collection, these organizations are fighting for fair reimbursement, legislative protection, and wider access for patients. His parting message? We’re stronger together, and now is the time to build the chiropractic future we believe in. CLOSING THOUGHT “Success begins with your mindset—and is sustained by community.” —Dr. Mark Sanna DC

In this transformative episode of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, Dr. Brent Jenogan DC—former combat Marine turned principled chiropractor—shares how he went from broken and battle-worn to becoming a leading voice in neurologically-integrated, subluxation-based care. This interview explores how chiropractic helped Dr. Jenogan reclaim his purpose, why breathwork and self-inquiry matter, and how finding your tribe can completely rewire your journey in life and practice. ● Dr. Jenogan reveals how PTSD and trauma led him to chiropractic as a healing art and a calling. ● Bold quote: "You are the work." His raw personal story powerfully illustrates the deep inner work required of true healing. ● How aviation mechanics helped shape his understanding of human anatomy as a system of intricate alignment and accountability. ● Advice to students: Become obsessive about your authenticity. Know every technique, but be unshakably YOU. ● Discusses the importance of philosophical integrity and why being principled is about living the message, not just preaching it. ● Lays out why finding mentors, a solid tribe, and modeling systems is essential to evolving in both life and practice. ● Podcasting as a vehicle to push through imposter syndrome and live in true alignment. Dr. Brent Jenogan DC, Functional Neurologist & Chiropractor Based in Denver, Colorado, Dr. Jenogan specializes in brain health, organ systems, and applied kinesiology. Founder of Architect Chiropractic and host of the 'Becoming the Architect' podcast, he integrates neurology, chiropractic, and movement with a holistic, purpose-driven approach to healing. From Special Ops to Specific Adjustments Dr. Jenogan’s path from elite military missions to principled chiropractic is both sobering and inspiring. After serving in 14 combat tours, he returned home spiritually unanchored and emotionally frayed. His journey into healing began not with external treatments, but by exploring the inner terrain. Chiropractic became his path to clarity, purpose, and service. Obsessed with Authenticity For chiropractic students and young docs, Jenogan’s message is clear: Don’t idolize—integrate. Know every system, every manual, every philosophy—not to mimic, but to embody chiropractic’s essence as only you can express it. His call for “obsessive authenticity” is a bold challenge in a world of mimicry and superficiality. Mentors, Models, and Movement Dr. Jenogan emphasizes that success in practice and life stems from structured habits, integrity, and the right models. Drawing from his aviation background, he shares how systems-thinking and high-integrity routines can create lasting impact. He names mentors like Michael Smekka and Tim Young as key influencers and urges every DC to create their own personalized "system of excellence." Podcasting with Purpose Through his show Becoming the Architect, Dr. Jenogan has created space for others to share the blueprints of their growth. But it’s not just about guests—it’s about facing fears, processing imposter syndrome, and stepping fully into one’s voice. For him, podcasting is both therapy and service.

Parker College and other Early Memories with Dr James Parker Jr DC - Chiro Hustle Podcast 670 In this powerful episode of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, host James Chester sits down with Dr. James Parker Jr. DC—a 27-year chiropractor, former President of the Parker University Alumni Association, and son of the legendary Dr. Jim Parker. They dive deep into Chiropractic roots, Parker Seminars, and the transformative philosophy that helped define the profession. HIGHLIGHTS ● Chiropractic as Legacy – Dr. Parker Jr. shares a rare, intimate view of growing up in the Parker household, where chiropractic wasn’t just a profession—it was a way of life. ● The Origin of Parker Seminars – Discover how Dr. Jim Parker turned his own practice success into a system that empowered thousands of chiropractors through live seminars and hands-on business training. ● Simple Language, Big Impact – Learn how Dr. Jim translated the philosophy into terms laypeople could grasp, which helped build one of the largest seminar audiences in chiropractic history. ● Standing at the Crossroads – Dr. Parker Jr. candidly discusses where the profession is headed and the risks of moving toward over-integration with the medical model. ● BJ Palmer’s Influence – Hear about Dr. Jim’s time studying directly under BJ Palmer during WWII, and how those lessons shaped the direction of Parker-style chiropractic. ● Protecting Chiropractic’s Unique Identity – This episode is a call to arms for chiropractors to stay rooted in the philosophy that separates chiropractic from the medical model. ABOUT DR. JAMES PARKER JR. DC  Dr. James Parker Jr. DC is a 27-year practicing chiropractor, the former President of the Parker University Alumni Association and Texas Chiropractic Association, District 5. He is the son of chiropractic legend Dr. Jim Parker, founder of Parker Seminars and Parker College. DIVING INTO... Growing Up Parker Dr. Parker Jr. recalls what it was like to grow up in a household where chiropractic consumed every conversation. His father, Dr. Jim Parker, was relentless in his passion, devoting even Christmas Day to the cause. For listeners, it paints a vivid picture of dedication to the Sacred Trust. The Birth of Parker Seminars We learn how the Parker Seminars began with a group of struggling chiropractors asking Dr. Jim how he built his success. With little more than a few brown briefcases full of handouts, the Parker School for Professional Success was born—teaching practice-building principles before there were coaching programs or CEU credits. Healing by Simplicity "Bone out of place, pressure on nerve, nerve to lung, symptom goes away." Dr. Jim’s legendary ability to distill chiropractic philosophy into everyday language wasn’t just good communication—it was how he won over entire towns. His method taught thousands how to explain chiropractic so that patients finally got it. Chiropractic’s Future: A Fork in the Road Dr. Parker Jr. doesn’t hold back. He warns that chiropractors today must choose whether to maintain the profession’s identity or merge into the integrated healthcare model. He champions chiropractic neurology and performance-based innovations but urges the profession not to lose sight of its unique healing art—the adjustment. Final Takeaway “We are positioned to bring in all the other natural holistic modalities and offer them to the public—but without yielding to the medical model. Chiropractic stands alone. Let’s keep it that way.” _________________________________________ #chiropractic #chiropracticcare #chiropracticadjustment #chiropracticworks #chiropracticmarketing #chiropracticassistant #ChiropracticCares #chiropractichealth #chiropractics #chiropracticneurology #chiropracticcollege #chiropracticdubai #chiropracticlifestyle #chiropracticforlife #chiropracticajustment #chiropracticforkids #chiropracticrocks #chiropracticphotos

This week on the Chiro Hustle Podcast, we sat down with Dr. Thom Gelardi, the legendary founder of Sherman College of Chiropractic. From overcoming a childhood spent in hospitals to building one of the most principled chiropractic colleges in the world, Dr. Gelardi's story is nothing short of extraordinary. In this episode, we dive into what real chiropractic looks like, what it's drifting away from, and what it will take to bring it back. We cover philosophy, family care, insurance traps, and why mission still matters. If you've ever wondered whether your practice is as aligned as your adjustments, this conversation is a must-hear. Our speaker today is Dr. Thom Gelardi, the founder of Sherman College of Chiropractic, located in Spartanburg, SC. Thom grew up in Mount Vernon, New York. He considers his early days some of the most fortuitous of his life. His life started with his being very sickly. His birthday is in April, and he spent his first eight birthdays in a hospital. One of those hospital stays lasted two and a half years, from when he was four years old until he was six and a half years old. It began with him having rheumatic fever, followed by many sequelae, resulting in a disabling heart murmur. When Thom was sixteen, his future brother-in-law finally persuaded him to see a chiropractor; the rest is history. While attending Palmer, before there was such a thing as student loans, he worked at the Rock Island Railroad’s Freight Yard from eleven at night until seven in the morning. Thom graduated from Palmer School of Chiropractic in January 1957. He is married to the former Betty Bowen, a registered nurse with post-graduate study in obstetrics. They have five children, three of whom joined the chiropractic-practicing part of the family. He practiced chiropractic for fifteen years before founding Sherman College. Last year, Sherman College celebrated its 50th year.  HIGHLIGHTS How years of childhood illness—and one illegal adjustment—shaped a chiropractic giantWhy Dr. Gelardi believes most DCs can’t define chiropractic todayWhat BJ Palmer said that rocked him to the coreThe mission that Sherman College was built on (and how it almost didn’t happen)Why he refused to take insurance—and still believes you shouldn't eitherWhy not every patient needs an adjustment, and what that actually meansWhat the next 100 years of chiropractic might look like ABOUT DR. THOM GELARDI, DC Founder of Sherman College of Chiropractic in Spartanburg, South Carolina. A principled chiropractor and educator committed to preserving the Sacred Trust and the philosophical core of the profession. STAYING TRUE TO CHIROPRACTIC PRINCIPLES Dr. Gelardi pulls no punches: most chiropractors today have drifted so far from the profession’s philosophical foundation, they can’t even define what chiropractic is anymore. For him, it’s crystal clear: health comes from within, and chiropractic is about locating, analyzing, and correcting vertebral subluxations—nothing more, nothing less. THE HEART OF FAMILY CARE One of the most overlooked truths? Kids need chiropractic, too. Not because they have symptoms, but because they don’t. Dr. Gelardi talks about why whole-family care was the foundation of his office, and why checking for subluxation—even without symptoms—is essential to long-term health. WHAT MAKES A MISSION A powerful theme throughout the episode is this: Every profession is defined by its mission. And if chiropractors can’t articulate that mission clearly, we risk becoming irrelevant. For Dr. Gelardi, chiropractic's mission is simple:

Dr. Steve Troyanovich on Earning Cultural Authority Without Compromise  What happens when a principled chiropractor earns the trust of medical doctors without ever selling out? In Episode 667 of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, Dr. Steve Troyanovich joins us to talk about his 36-year career, the clinical wins that changed lives (and minds), and how he used storytelling, science, and rock-solid philosophy to build a referral-only practice—without losing the heart of chiropractic. From his latest book The Human Touch to a near-miss that turned into a life-saving moment, this episode is full of insight, truth, and a few surprises you’ll want to hear for yourself. Key Takeaways  ●      What it really looks like to earn trust from skeptical MDs—without compromising principles ●      Why showing results (not chasing belief) changes everything ●      A patient’s C1 burst fracture that changed his entire perspective on risk, referrals, and responsibility ●      How the phrase "I work for you" reshaped his patient relationships ●      The PR problem in chiropractic—and how his book The Human Touch tries to fix it ●      Why low-pressure, high-integrity communication isn’t just ethical—it’s effective   About Dr. Steve Troyanovich, DCDr. Steve Troyanovich is a 1987 Palmer College graduate who practiced in Normal, Illinois for 36 years. A prolific author and researcher, he has published over 50 journal articles and seven books. He was also the editor of Chiropractic History and now advocates for chiropractic through writing and education. Episode Themes  Reclaiming Cultural Authority Dr. Steve reveals how he earned respect by educating the very professionals who were trained to distrust him. His simple approach—sending newsletters with real research to the local medical community—flipped the narrative and fueled a practice built on referrals from MDs. Objective Outcomes Over OpinionDr. Steve doesn’t rely on feel-good testimonials. Instead, he built his practice on objective measures like X-rays, posture assessments, and care plans grounded in CBP protocols. He challenges chiropractors to ask: Are you really changing spines—or just making people feel better temporarily? Patient Choice, Not PressureNo scripts. No pushy ROFs. Dr. Steve simply laid out the options and let patients decide. What followed was long-term trust, better compliance, and plenty of people who came back ready when they were truly ready. Vitalism Meets ResearchYou’ll hear how Dr. Steve blends philosophy with scientific credibility. His take on innate intelligence might surprise you—but it might also give you a new way to explain it that lands with patients and skeptics alike. Final Takeaway“You don’t get to believe in chiropractic. You get to experience it.”   Guest Bio:  Dr. Steve Troyanovich is a 1987 Cum Laude graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa. He has authored seven books and authored or co-authored over 50 scientific journal articles regarding spinal evaluation and treatment methods.

Worth, a seven-figure, cash-based, single doctor office, specializing in sports and sport performance. He has worked with notable UFC fighters, Bellator Fighters, NFL players and rugby players and is currently the team chiropractor for the Dallas Jackals Major league rugby team.

He’s found that many can "start" but few actually see things through to growth and completion having grown a chiropractic office from a literal dirt floor to $1.5M in revenue with 3 employees and no insurance costs. Next step: he is determined to help new doctors into practice by providing a graceful way to help seasoned doctors exit practice, gracefully!

James is a husband to badass, world-changing wife, Tamika Taylor of the Evolution Collective and has 2 amazing children Frankie Claire and Calvin Michael and is the solo host of his own podcast; Fueled By Spite where they focus on the victories in the faces of those who said, "I bet you cant."

We know how imperative it is to protect your liberties, as an "alternative" healthcare practitioner. Most of us didn't realize how at-risk health, healthcare, and nutrition freedoms have been.

It's darkest before dawn, and I believe we are on the verge of a brand new world. A world in which the natural and spiritual healing arts will move to the forefront. We are going to lead the movement of healthcare by returning to Godʻs laws and re-establishing the boundaries and jurisdiction of private liberties and freedoms.
