Workshops That Work: Rethinking How You Connect with Clients 20:17

for 4 dage siden20:17

20:17

Most workshops are boring. They’re built for efficiency, not impact. Designed to tell, not connect. In this episode, Martin answers a listener’s question: How do you run a regular patient workshop that actually builds connection and helps people see the value of chiropractic care—personally? You’ll learn: Why workshop attendance is dropping (and what to do about it) How to flip the format from “what we do” to “what helps them” A framework that sparks belief shifts—without sounding like a pitch What Netflix can teach you about getting people to show up If you’re still running “new patient orientations,” this one might sting. But it’ll also inspire.

Why More New Clients Might Be the Wrong Goal 17:54

for 11 dage siden17:54

17:54

Every chiropractor wants to grow. More new people. More bookings. More traction. So the go-to move? Run some Facebook ads. Boost an Instagram post. Try Google. But what if chasing more isn’t the answer? In this episode, Martin challenges two big myths in chiropractic: That growth comes from always needing new clients. That paid ads are the best (or only) way to get them. Martin shares a smarter, more sustainable path to practice growth built on retention , connection , and clear communication . You’ll learn: Why paid ads feel like fast food: quick fix, short impact. Why retention is the most overlooked growth strategy. How your PVA tells you exactly where your focus should be. Low-cost, high-trust ways to build your community—without begging the algorithm. 📈 If you’re tired of feeling like you’re always hustling for the next new client, this episode will help you flip the script.

The Great Health Divide: AI, Vitalism & the Future of Chiropractic with Dr Nimrod Mueller 51:59

for 18 dage siden51:59

51:59

In this episode, Martin and Nimrod dive into the cultural undercurrents shaping the future of health—and what chiropractors need to get before it's too late. Wearables are rising. AI is thinking faster than you can blink. Stress is peaking across the Western world. Amidst it all, chiropractic stands at a crossroads. ⚡ Go left → Mechanistic, transactional, data-driven “healthcare.” ⚡ Go right → Vitalistic, human-centered, performance-driven care. What side are you on? And what happens if you don’t choose? They cover: The coming stratification of society AI, nanotech, and the illusion of quick fixes Why human touch still matters (and always will) The "ontological shock" shaking people's sense of meaning How chiropractors can stay relevant without selling out This is part philosophy, part strategy—and all signal, no noise. If you’re a chiropractor wondering what the future holds, press play. It’s not just about where healthcare is going. It’s about where you are headed.

Getting People to Do What’s Good for Them (Without Nagging) 14:41

14:41

Why Don’t Patients Follow Through? You recommend care plans. You run workshops. You give them everything they need to get better. But they still don’t show up. The truth? Good intentions aren’t enough. If people don’t see the value, they won’t commit. If they don’t commit, they won’t act. In this episode, Martin breaks down a simple two-part framework to get more patients to stick to their care plans and attend workshops—without feeling pushy.

for 9 weeks siden42:30

42:30

You’re great at adjusting spines. But what about adjusting your finances? Most chiropractors get into the game to help people—not to become financial experts. The problem? Too many end up with a thriving practice but a failing bank account. Today, Martin sits down with Allen Hart , a seasoned financial adviser who’s spent decades helping business owners build wealth without the stress. They break down: ✅ The 6 biggest financial mistakes chiropractors make ✅ Why “more revenue” ≠ “more wealth” (and what to focus on instead) ✅ The one thing you should do today to protect your future Oh, and Allen reveals a financial horror story that took four years to fix… Don’t let it happen to you. 👂 Listen now & take control of your financial future.

How to Get Patients to Stick to Care Plans (Without Sounding Pushy) 15:08

for 10 weeks siden15:08

15:08

Most chiropractors tell. The best ones ask. This episode dives into the Question Behavior Effect —a sneaky little psychological trick that makes people more likely to follow through on their actions. Research shows that when you ask someone about a future behavior, they’re way more likely to actually do it . Martin breaks it down: ✅ Why telling patients what to do rarely works ✅ How asking the right question increases commitment ✅ Why our brains crave consistency and how to use that to your advantage ✅ The secret sauce behind Cialdini’s no-show study and why a simple question slashed cancellations.

Why your patients don’t get it (and how simple tests can fix that) 20:39

for 11 weeks siden20:39

20:39

Most patients think health is about pain. If it hurts, something’s wrong. If it doesn’t, they’re fine. But that’s a problem. Because pain is a lagging indicator. And if you let patients rely on it, they’ll only ever come when they feel bad—and leave the second they feel better. Dr. Martin Harvey has a better way. In this episode, he breaks down how simple, strategic testing can completely change the game. Tests that prove there’s a problem before symptoms show up. Tests that shift belief systems in real time. Tests that turn “I feel fine” into “Wow, I had no idea that was happening.” What you’ll learn: The three levels of health awareness and why most patients get stuck at Level 1. How to use balance, posture, and range of motion to make chiropractic make sense. Why preframing matters—and the exact words to use so patients get it immediately. A dead-simple way to track progress and make your care plans more compelling. Want to keep more patients for longer? Give them an experience, not a lecture. Hit play and learn how.
