The Third Phase of Sports Chiropractors

This isn’t an exact science, but in my judgment, we are in the third phase of sports chiropractic. Phase 1 was pioneered by many great chiropractors before there was even the name sports chiropractor. Phase 2 layered on more advanced soft tissue therapy, particular assessments, and sports rehab.

In this episode, I break down phase 1 and phase 2 of sports chiropractors and the newer phase 3 of sports chiropractics. This Phase 3 isn’t replacing Phase 2, nor does it make Phase 2 antiquated. It’s simply different.

I spent some time highlighting the positives of Phase 3 sports chiropractic and some of the pitfalls from a business and clinical standpoint in this episode.

Our goal at MCM is for all evidence-informed chiropractors to thrive clinically and as a business, and my hope for this episode is to get sports chiropractors to develop systems and practices to improve profit margins and build a great practice.

Perhaps this episode can be a dialogue starter on improving the practice health of the Phase 3 Sports Chiropractor. The good news is many Phase 3 sports chiropractors are building thriving practices.
