• Give The Gift Of Chiropractic Care December 22, 2003 .
• Standing there, my mind drifted to some common topics — how do we reach more people with a message of a wellness lifestyle, what methods can we use to help the public understand the importance of chiropractic’s role, how can we get patients to reprioritize health and wellness in their values hierarchy, typical daydreaming for me — and then it hit me!.

• Why is it easier for our neighbors to spend on gifts and parties than to invest in health care for their families? First, it’s more engrained in our culture. ... Seeing the enjoyment on your receiver’s face provides tremendous emotional rewards, and no matter how good your care feels, it can’t compete with that. Nor am I saying we should forego gift-giving in favor of chiropractic care — the exchange of symbols of love and appreciation is part of wellness, and gives us experiences with gratitude, generosity, self esteem, love and other vital character builders.
• It just seems ironic to me that people tend to be able to find enough money and time for whatever is most important to them, and that is the point of this column — we need to do a better job of helping people prioritize chiropractic care properly in their lifestyles. ...
• Give everyone at least a tidbit of patient education each visit, but pick at least one person each day, and spend a little extra time educating that patient and repositioning chiropractic in his or her perspective. ... This year, give your patients the gift of explaining the chiropractic lifestyle — it’s a gift that keeps on giving, for generations to come.
