A Pivotal Message

JUNE 21, 2022 
Shifting From The Pursuit of More to Becoming a Role Model for others
This blog post is sponsored by @AhliaYoga: Join Ahlia for her meditations and yoga practices on YouTube

I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Dr. Robert Delgado for the Chiropractic Freedom Show. His intro was, “Dr. Steve Hoffman has been coaching Chiropractors for over 25 years. This experience and wisdom is invaluable to any Doctor wanting to create a successful Practice as part of a fulfilling life. If you’re feeling stuck or looking to take your life to a new level this is the interview for you.”
 
I started off by explaining that I, too, played the “game called more” in my practice and I built a very successful practice doing so. BUT, while I joked that my long term goal was to enjoy the same standard of living as my spouse and children, it struck me that I was so out of balance and in contradiction between what I said and what I did that I was not the role model I wanted to be for my children. After all, I was always in the office, often missed out on important events in their lives and they “had it all” Why would they want to be like me when I wanted to be like them???
 
So, why not join in for this mindset shift and what took place there after…decide what it is you really, truly want!

What Does Your Public Think You Do?

JUNE 21, 2022 
Positioning Your Practice
This blog post is sponsored by @AhliaYoga: Join Ahlia for her meditations and yoga practices on YouTube

DC’s have always endeavored to deliver what they thought their community thought they should deliver.

my experience, when it comes to causes of subluxation, most chiropractors have an understanding of and an answer for TRAUMA and TOXINS components. And, in my practice, the primary cause for most people was the one we have been least prepared to recogniize, understand, communicate about and deal with, namely the TENSION or EMOTIONAL component.
 
Seems to me, while many had physical and chemical causes, literally everyone had mental/emotional causes. AND, it has gotten even worse over the past couple of years. In order to be the doctors of cause that we hold ouselves out to be, how can we become better versed in the EMOTIONAL COMPONENT?

Dr. Dan and I broached that subject recently on our FB LIVE and we will be adding it to ADVANCED MC2 and ADVANCED Tonal Pedes in some of the upcoming seminars. We’re debating, and would love your input, as to if you feel you would be better served by an extended weekend program or a stand-alone ADVANCED ONLY seminar. Do let me know via email at [email protected]

Which Supplements Do You Take?

MAY 25, 2022 
Topic 1:
Which Supplements Do You Take?
Topic 2:
BioFields Explained
This blog post is sponsored by @AhliaYoga: Join Ahlia for her meditations and yoga practices on YouTube

TOPIC 1: Supplements
I mentioned this last week and Dan and I recorded a FaceBook Live event to explore this subject and invite your participation. My method is to see if there are any overt commonalities and I was looking to see what supplements, if any, healthy people take as part of their healthy lifestyle. On the video, I mention the top 4 supplements I take and Dan mentioned a few he takes. We have also had some commentary already from docs about what they take. So, do join in the conversation by posting on our MC2 Technic Forum Page and also by just sending me a quick email. Once results are in, I will happily let everyone know what commonalities I found.
Well, lots of you have PM’d me for more so here’s more to whet your appetite:

TOPIC 2: Biofields
We opened up the mind field last week and introduced the concept of BioFields, their predictability and use as a shortcut in practice. While largely applicable to MC2, this information is useful for all technics employing torque from a physiological, rather than structural, perspective.

BioFields or General Torque Fields are similar to Torsion Fields proposed by Einstein. In my experience, an individual’s BioField map rarely changes. Once you know an  individual’s “MAP”, you may eliminate the need for checking torque when adjusting. 

Be aware that it just might be your map and my findings are based on my map!



My map is if you find clockwise torque going up the body on the left, you will also find counter-clockwise torque going up the body on the right. And, visa versa.

 If you find counter-clockwise going lateral to medial on the left, you will find clockwise torque going lateral to medial on the right.
 Similar with P to A. Check it and see.

Their pattern should hold true going forward. 
If its ever not, look to YOU. Please play with this and let me know your findings. We are ALWAYS looking for commonalities.

Always check for certainty. Using an individual’s torque field allows you to eliminate the step of finding the torque for every area you interact with on a visit to visit basis.

We will be expanding this in 2 seminars scheduled for later this year. Nashville is already scheduled (see below) and we are in conversation with Matt Hubbard in San Diego for West Coast program (likely in November).

Biofields, Commonalities & Staff Retention

MAY 10, 2022 
Topic 1: BioField – Commonalities
Topic 2: Staff Retention
This blog post is sponsored by @AhliaYoga: Join Ahlia for her meditations and yoga practices on YouTube

Dr. Dan has taken a deep dive into the “Holographic Universe” and wondered how and if its applicable to a subject I raised a while ago in Advanced MC2, namely, the concept of Biofileds and their predictability.

So, of course, we had a conversation about it to at least broach the subject and see where it leads. In the same videeo, at the end, I wondered about what docs are using nutritionally (themselves) and if there was any sense of commonality there also.

It turns out we already have oned reply on the FB Forum page so do check it out. The assumtion is that DC’s are healthy and have healthy lifestyles and so what I wanted to know is if you take nutritional supplements, which 4 or 5 would you classify as crucial…at least for you? We will expand on this going forward and so very interested in your feedback and response.

So, let’s get started with Biofields.  Jump into our conversation:

Staff Retention

Staff Retention

OR, what happens and what do you do when listings continue to show up visit after visit? While this is not unusual in the beginning of care, the question Dr. Dan asked this week was what to do when this happens with a long term wellness patient who is receiving regular check ups and regular care?

It’s an intriguing question because, on the one hand, we would want these people to show up not needing adjustments on every visit and certainly not the same adjustment. Well, Dan only adjusts a portion of the people that show up for check ups because many check clear and do not need to be adjusted. So he was curuous why some people seem to get stuck in a particular pattern.
 
So we jumped in looking at:
Frequency of check ups
Intensity of adjustments
Upper cervical patterns
Why persistent “listings” persist
How to break the pattern
Layering care on
Fine tuning the system
Moving off the primaries
HRV and
States of arousal

While we quickly reviewed all of these, at the end of the day, you would be the one to draw conclusions and see what develops in their health, their care and your findings.

Track Patients in Real Time!

Track Patients in Real Time!
This blog post is sponsored by @AhliaYoga: Join Ahlia for her meditations and yoga practices on YouTube

I’ve become aware of an EMR integration software to prevent patients from falling through the cracks. It does this by looking at the data in your EMR and creating daily, weekly and monthly activities that are completed through automation or assigned to a team member.

It’s called TrackStat because it tracks patients in real-time, so you never lose a patient again. It pulls all the statistics so you can see the progress throughout the day, week, month or year.

It also has other capabilities for communication, marketing, and online scheduling that can be used in conjunction with your current system or it can solve all of your problems.

If you use this link to sign up this month, they will waive your set up fee. 

Visit the site now and ‘watch the demo’ to see the software in action:

Thanks for investing in you!

Follow Up Questions

MAY 05, 2022 
Follow Up Questions
This blog post is sponsored by @AhliaYoga: Join Ahlia for her meditations and yoga practices on YouTube

Following up from 2 weeks ago when seeing trends in the office and exploring that communication with practice members about your findings for them specifically, or in general; you need a follow-up. We talked about symptom trends post covid or post covid injection so how to broach this subject with practice members:
 
By example, as people experience more nerve system arousal, bruxism is a common development. We’ve discussed other common developments since early in the covid era like heart issues, breathing issues, fatigue, anxiety, blood sugar and more.

The conversation could simply be, “does anyone in your family grind their teeth at night?” And, their answer doesn’t matter! Yes: we’re seeing a lot of that and thats why I asked. No: great because we’re seeing a lot of that and that’s why I asked. Or, simply, “why do you ask?” I ask because we’re seeing a lot of that.

Regardless of answer, you get to explain how bruxism is a common issue resulting from an over stimulated nervous system and whatever else you might add.
 
In the past you might have followed up this (or any) explanation with, “do you have any questions and/or do you understand?” It seems they never have questions and always understand….but they don’t so try these follow ups:
So, what did you learn from my explanation?
What one thing did I say that stood out most in your mind?
How would you communicate this to others?
In today’s video Dr. Dan and I explore this and, at the end, Dr. Dan mentions how he is seeing a lot more people suffering with migraines lately. This is something that dovetails nicely with both heart and liver issues post injection as docs are (and have been) reporting an increase in subluxation findings at C7 and T1.

What Causes Patients to Drop Out?

APRIL 28, 2022 
What Causes Patients to Drop Out?
This blog post is sponsored by @AhliaYoga: Join Ahlia for her meditations and yoga practices on YouTube

There are really 2 vastly different issues at play here.

Issue #1 – Yes, patients leave and it is almost always due to a lack of understanding, education and the doctor’s inability to create agreement. If they knew what you do, they would do what you do. What did you need to know (what was the turning point) that changed you from using chiropractic for a particular problem and caused you to embrace it as a necessary life style? That’s what they need to know too!
Patients leave because you didn’t create value in their mind to continue. You met THEIR expectations but, while doing so, did not effectively communicate how they would benefit from continued care. We address this with docs in Mastery Coachingas we help them build their patient education system.

Issue #2 – Have you ever considered the patient’s perspective asking themselves, “why did the doctor leave me?” What’s their experience in your office? When their priority was to get rid of a problem, they had your time and attention as you communicated, evaluated, explained and rendered care.

While you would never want THEM reducing their care because their symptoms improved, how often have you reduced their care because their symptoms improved?

Their priorities have shifted because they’re feeling better and you seem to be doing the same thing (or less) to them every visit for the same money as before. WHY did you leave them is an appropriate question.

Why do we layer care off as people improve instead of layer care on in order to help them functionally evolve?

If you don’t know the answer to that question, how can you expect your practice members to understand how you are different from their allopathic doctor?

Dr. Dan and I are looking at post-covid trends in practice. What are you seeing now that COVID has run its way through your office-any clinical or objective changes? 

Let us know on the MC2 Facebook Forum or email [email protected] 

You, too, can have a more nerve system-cause oriented approach to practice!
Take action…at the very least, ask MORE questions!

Look forward to the next installment with Dr. Dan as we will cover communications around your findings.

To YOUR MOMENTUM!
