The #1 Question to Ask in Your Chiropractic Consultation

There’s one question I asked every new patient during my chiropractic consultations, and it made managing patients a lot easier: “What are you hoping to achieve from your time here?” I practiced as a chiropractor for nine years. I started out winging my consults, then tried practice management scripts that never felt natural, and eventually landed on a simple structure built around a few good questions. In this video I break down four reasons this question works: it defines what a win looks like, gets you on the same page with your patient, gives you the foundation for your report of findings, and makes patient education and ongoing care recommendations actually make sense to the patient. I also share why I first went to a chiropractor (it wasn’t back pain), why you should never hand patients a puzzle and expect them to put it together, and why scripted consultations hurt the long-term relationship you’re trying to build. If patients aren’t following through with care, or you feel like you’re always on a different page than your patients, start here.
