Get More Patients To Book Over The Phone With The Ring-Ring Game

At my office I teach my interns how to play the "ring ring" game. In a nutshell, as chiropractors and physical therapists, we often times we get phone calls from possible new patients asking questions: How much for a quick adjustment? Do you take my insurance? Do you do XYZ soft tissue work? These patients are really wanting one thing... to feel better. In my interpretation, their questions are based upon what they believe to be barriers to their success, but really the only barriers is themselves. Listen to this podcast and see what the "ring ring" game is all about and how it can help you succeed in building a new patient base. SHOW NOTES AT https://www.p2sportscare.com/podcast/

Back In Control with David Hanscom MD

David Hanscom is a retired orthopedic surgeon, who interestingly decided to stop practicing because he no longer agreed that doing spinal surgery was needed with many patients. Interesting right?! He decided to go full time with a more conservative approach in promoting his book about high quality patient education about chronic pain. The book covers how one can manage their chronic pain without the use of invasive procedures or excessive drug use. He's the author of the book, "Back in Control."

Body Tension Through Using Implements With Dennis Dunphy Stick Mobility

I was introduced to Dennis Dunphy through a past guest Jesse Macado. Dennis Dunphy is a co-creator of Stick Mobility. After looking into what the whole practice of Stick Mobility was all about, I decided to have him on. The application of developing tension (or as he said irradiation) through positions and movements was apparent in his method and could be extremely useful in clinical practice. He's a great conversationalist and an interesting guy. Thanks again Dennis!

Pain Science With Greg Lehman - PRO Chiropractic Online CE Series

Greg Lehman is one of the presenters on the PRO Chiropractic Online CE Series. I was fortunate to have flagged him down from his busy lecturing schedule to get this hour of conversation about Pain Science in! Greg is a chiropractor based out of Canada. Some of the fine points we go into are: - building your cup - fear avoidance behavior - the pain is just an alarm concept - his background of how he came to think how he does - chiropractic as a profession Greg Lehman Bio: "Prior to my clinical career I was fortunate enough to receive a Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council MSc graduate scholarship that permitted me to be one of only two yearly students to train with Professor Stuart McGill in his Occupational Biomechanics Laboratory subsequently publishing more than 20 peer reviewed papers in the manual therapy and exercise biomechanics field. I was an assistant professor at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College teaching a graduate level course in Spine Biomechanics and Instrumentation as well conducting more than 20 research experiments while supervising more than 50 students. I have lectured on a number of topics on reconciling treatment biomechanics with pain science, running injuries, golf biomechanics, occupational low back injuries and therapeutic neuroscience. While I have a strong biomechanics background I was introduced to the field of neuroscience and the importance of psychosocial risk factors in pain and injury management almost two decades ago. I believe successful injury management and prevention can use simple techniques that still address the multifactorial and complex nature of musculoskeletal disorders. I am active on social media and consider the discussion and dissemination of knowledge an important component of responsible practice." Within the course on PRO Chiropractic Online CE, he covers the following: HOUR 3 (CE hrs 1): Practical application of pain biology in literature and targeting educational message to person in lumbar spine cases HOUR 4 (CE hrs 1): Improve our skills of delivering key messages to promote healthy behavior and begin cognitive restructuring and addressing unhelpful beliefs with key message of pain biology education in lumbar spine cases Lumbar Spine Pain Biology w/ Dr. Greg Lehman DC

Using a biomechanics mindset, he enjoys the detective work that seeks to resolve stubborn, painful conditions. He then directs his attention to teaching patients how to use corrective exercises to manage their own conditions.

As a long-time athlete himself, Dr. Snell has a special appreciation for the needs of athletes as they age and the conditions that prevent them from remaining as active as they desire. Patients can expect not only chiropractic adjustments, but also treatment to address the surrounding muscle and fascial tissues, followed up with thorough rehabilitation exercises. Treatments are tailored to each patient's needs, with special attention directed towards educating the patient on how to reduce future injuries. Dr. Snell enjoys wintertime snowboarding, and during the warmer months can be found in his garden or hiking and running the beautiful trails in the Portland area with his wife and son.
