Huge shoutout to Rachel Mochulla, DC | Chiropractor for doing such a succinct recap of some important research.

Also, I AM GUILTY AF of discharging people based on my desires for my own professional identity instead of actually allowing them to steer their own care.

Live and learn, I guess.

Don’t get me wrong, if I had any rizz whatsoever, I’m sure they’d say yes, I just don’t have the balls to ask.

I guess I’ll just have to rely on good ol people skills, clinical excellence, clear communication, and evidence based care to find new patients. Shucks.

I get a lot of famous people through the office. Most of them are athletes, but on occasion, it’s a beloved superstar actor…or Bill Murray.

It’s all fun and games…except it really wasn’t. I often pretended it was, but I was constantly hiding doubt, stress, imposter syndrome, decision fatigue, compassion fatigue, and physical fatigue.

If I was starting over, I’d know exactly what got me all those discomforts, so I would turn down certain dials while cranking up others until the mix was flavoured just right.

Chiropractors, I love you guys. I know you’ve felt a few of these too. I see you. I feel you. Take care of yourself. Consider this permission to put it all down here and there. Talk soon. ✌️

Yes, I am an exercise bro.
Yes, I am a manual therapy bro.
Yes, I am a neuroscience bro.
Yes, I am a chiro bro.

Why can’t we call just study mechanistic descriptors and keep asking why, but maintain our bro status?

Asking for a friend.

Ever had a famous patient?

Me neither.

If you practice like a modern chiropractor, this WILL happen to you: a new patient walks in guarded as hell because the last chiro they saw tried to scare them into a care plan the size of a mortgage (invariably they reference their crazy X-rays).

Your job is NOT to defend the profession. You also do NOT get to trash the other guy, because that just makes you look petty and confuses the patient. Your job is to validate what happened to them. Then you show them that the chiropractor sitting across from them right now is going to do something that actually helps, and that they’ll enjoy.

Above all else, LISTEN and VALIDATE.

Now go be a good chiropractor and let me know if you need help.

A few more grammatical and spelling errors in this one, and potentially a bit more cheekiness, but here we are. Let the strangely overzealous Facebook commentary begin!

Chiropractors on all sides of a these arguments seem to be getting their panties in a tizzy over this one. It’s line everyone wanted me to prove their side “true”, when that’s simply not what science does.

Science lends evidence, nuance, and statistical support to ideas and their correlates. It does not prove or disprove anything.

In a 2-part review on social media, only a fraction of the studies performed and theories advocated could possibly be explored, so just chill on the “what about bone-setters circa 63 AD” and “you’re missing a minute detail” and “my mom’s aunt’s neighbour’s friend doesn’t like her chiropractor”.

Just read it, ask some questions, read some of the papers, and be nice about it, ok? 😚

Step 1: go follow Angus Haack and Dr Ben | Clinical Excellence & Continuing Ed for Chiropractors and David Machan, BKinH

Step 2: read this:

We’ve all watched Angus Haack ‘s social media stock rise like the red bar on a Neurocalometer read-out. It’s admirable how much content this guy can come up with that keeps us interested, validated, and entertained.

But can it be taught? If you’re a chiro wanting to find ways to boost your social media presence, and do so with your own flair (not a formula), this is the guy you want to listen to.

Step 3: go make us proud to be a chiropractor on socials
