planetc1.com-news@7:12 am PST I heard Dr. Sigafoose tell a story that I heard him tell several times yet I heard him say it one more time and it finally sunk in. The story is about a young women who plays the violin. She is a true master. She is about to play at Carnegie Hall and they interviewed her on TV. They asked her if she is nervous about playing to the audience at Carnegie Hall and she basically said that she doesn't play for the audience, she plays for herself because she knows that if she pleases herself she will certainly please the audience because she has higher standards for herself than they do. (Thanks again Sig)
planetc1.com-news@11:27 am PST In a follow-up to Super CA Lynne's story, "Get Your New Patients Out of the Fog," it's so true how foggy a new patient may feel for the first time in a chiropractic office. CA's definitely set the tone in the office for new patients. CA's are there to help new patients understand how magical chiropractic is by allowing it into their lives.
planetc1.com-news@1:29 pm PST My friend wanted to share her son’s Chiropractic story. She was one of my toughest challenges in convincing her to start Chiropractic care. She had a negative attitude about the effectiveness of Chiropractic “Wellness” Care. She challenged me and said, “This Chiropractic stuff has to be proven to me.” I told her, “Fine, you’ll see!” Es El Quiropractico Un Terapista? (En Español) planetc1.com-news@1:13 pm PST Muchas personas piensan que el Quiropráctico es un Terapista que solamente tiene una preparación limitada quizás de 6 meses de estudio o algo por lo parecido. Sin embargo este no es el caso ya que el doctor en Quiropractica tiene que estudiar 8 anos para obtener su doctorado en Quiropractica. Luego de graduarse de la escuela Quiropractica tienen que obtener sus exámenes escritos nacionales y por ultimo tienen que sentarse a tomar su revalida en el estado que van a ejercer su profesión.

planetc1.com-news@12:29 pm PST After seeing the movie, “The Last Samurai,” I felt this powerful churning in my stomach and couldn’t sleep that night. No, it wasn’t something I ate! What that uneasy feeling was, was how clearly the film portrayed what is happening in our Chiropractic world. But first, some history! Chiropractic Educational Institutions & Chiropractic School planetc1.com-news@12:28 pm PST I have a great idea. Let's dream up a scenario that is totally illogical, totally impossible, and could never happen. And let's make it a defining moment in chiropractic. So, where do we start?
planetc1.com-news@4:16 pm PST I had an interesting conversation with a friend recently. We were talking about her son and his battle with ear infections. He had been on numerous courses of antibiotics and they finally chose tubes because they didn't want him on so many antibiotics any more. The sad part of this story was that the parents thought that when it came to ear infections, they only had two choices - antibiotics or tubes. As a chiropractor, I was embarrassed. I was embarrassed because she never considered chiropractic care as an option for her son.
planetc1.com-news@11:54 am PST My drive in this morning was terrible, pitch black, rain and fog! I can drive in anything but fog, it’s that unnerving feeling of not really knowing where you are even though you drive the same road everyday. There were a couple of times my heart was racing and I had to slow down to get my bearings. It made me think this is probably the way some of our new patients feel when they come into our offices, in a fog!
planetc1.com-news@1:14 pm PST Riekeman became the Palmers eighth president in the fall of 1998 after the death of then-president Virgil Strang shortly before his retirement. A motivational speaker and creator of several professional development seminar programs, Riekeman is a 1972 graduate of Palmer. He had been an X-ray instructor, dean of philosophy and vice president of Sherman Chiropractic College in Spartanburg, S.C.
planetc1.com-news@7:43 am PST As many of you are aware, last fall the CCO indicated their intention to effectively put a gag order on the discussion of vaccination by a chiropractor. This came to fruition on Tuesday, February 10 with a vote by the Executive Council to accept the proposed change in Standard of Practice S-015 known as Version 1.
planetc1.com-news@10:58 am PST How do you get a person to commit to something. This is a very important discussion when you are seeking to serve more people. We all know that it is impossible to change someone else, especially those of us who are married. A person walks into your office usually seeking relief from an aliment. The first commitment is usually easy at that point. They walked into your office seeking help. They already decided that there is a possibility that you can help them. The first emotion that we need to convey to them if we want them to connect to us and stick around is Hope. We are in the business that it's continued existence is a testimonial to the "results" that people experience under our care. Understanding the implications of the definition of the Chiropractic Philosophy is very simple and easy to understand yet it is an understatement. The definition itself doesn't motivate people. You do. They need to have confidence in the fact that you can help them and that you want to help them. Before a new patient ever leaves my office I always thank them for choosing me as their Chiropractor and I let them know that I Want To Be Their Chiropractor. That is telling them that not only do I think that I can help them, that in addition to that I Want To Help Them. |
