From Chiropractic Roots to Media Reach

Gary’s son is a chiropractor, and through that connection, Gary developed a unique perspective on how chiropractic can impact more lives - not just through adjustments, but through message mastery. He challenges chiropractors to step into the spotlight and embrace visibility, not shy from it.

The Power of Your “So That” Story

Most chiropractors get stuck talking about techniques. Gary flips the script: Speak to the transformation you provide. It’s not about decompression therapy - it’s about helping a man ditch his cane and walk on stage again. When chiropractors communicate the “so that” behind what they do, they connect on a human level.

Media, Messaging, and Magnifying Your Voice

Gary’s advice for getting on mainstream platforms? Become interesting. His book title “How a Beaver Saved My Life” is a case in point. When you show up ready to serve, not sell, media welcomes you back. And yes, having a book changes the game.

From Fear to Freedom on Stage

Despite giving over 1,000 talks, Gary still gets nervous. His secret? Make the butterflies fly in formation. Speak from your truth. And remember: if you’re listening to your audience instead of performing at them, you’ll always connect.

Service-First Sales and Speaking

Forget “selling” - Gary teaches DCs to build communities through trust and service. Be seen, be safe, be relevant. That’s how people stay, pay, and refer. Speaking is the fastest way to build that connection.

The Adventure of Becoming More

From firewalks to P-51 fighter flights, Gary embodies transformation through courage. His personal motto - “launch and adjust, elevate and separate” - is a call for chiropractors to stop waiting and start stepping into their next level.

CLOSING THOUGHT

“Please take that step into the unknown… Go out and serve. There’s a lot of people that need you, want you. They just don’t know you’re there.”

Marketing is NOT a Vending Machine with Sam Carlson - Chiro Hustle Podcast 682

In episode 682 of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, host James Chester dives into the deep end of chiropractic marketing with serial entrepreneur and innovative marketer, Sam Carlson. As the co-founder of both Patient Stream and UpHex, Sam has revolutionized lead generation and digital marketing for chiropractors and agencies alike. This episode isn’t just about tools and tactics—it’s a hard-hitting look at what actually works in chiropractic marketing today and what doesn’t.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Sam explains why marketing is NOT a vending machine and how that outdated mindset sabotages patient acquisition.

• He shares the “Qualified Lead Formula” and breaks down the anatomy of a high-converting ad campaign.

• Discover how one client, Dr. Ray Peavey, doubled his volume and added $55K in cash using just one powerful shift in lead handling.

• Learn why niche-specific ads (like for neuropathy or spinal decompression) outperform general chiropractic offers.

• Sam reveals how UpHex enables three-click Facebook ads so simple, even his 10-year-old can launch them.

• Hear the case study that got Patient Stream featured by Meta and what that means for your clinic.

ABOUT SAM CARLSON

Sam Carlson, Serial Entrepreneur & Co-Founder of UpHex, is known for reshaping the way chiropractic clinics attract and convert leads. Through Patient Stream and now UpHex, he empowers thousands of agencies and small businesses with automated, results-driven advertising. He’s also the author of “New Patient School.”

DIVING INTO…

Marketing is NOT a Vending Machine

Sam debunks the myth that digital ads work like magic machines. Chiropractors often expect to plug in a campaign and instantly get new patients. But real marketing takes positioning, patience, and psychology. Sam uses a golf analogy: your ad is the driver that gets the ball in play—but what gets the ball into the hole is real human interaction.

The Qualified Lead Formula

Sam introduces a simple but powerful framework for chiropractors: go niche, speak directly to real problems, and target based on pain points, not generalities. Forget the “$21 exam and x-ray” offers. Instead, talk to the sciatica sufferer who can’t walk their dog or the neuropathy patient whose feet go numb by noon.

Meet Them Where They Are

Rather than educating cold audiences about the philosophy of chiropractic in an ad, Sam insists: speak their language first. Address their lived pain experience. It’s about strategic empathy—and it’s what turns browsers into believers.

How One Phone Call Saved a Clinic

The episode closes with a mic-drop moment: the story of Dr. Ray Peavey, who was on the verge of losing his 30-year practice. After six weeks of floundering with leads, Dr. Peavey got on the phone himself. One real conversation converted into a $4,500 care plan. He repeated the process, doubled his visits, and found new life in practice.

CLOSING THOUGHT

Marketing isn’t about magic funnels or secret buttons. It’s about showing up real, specific, and human—again and again.

Dr. Otto Janke returns to the Chiro Hustle Podcast after a five-year hiatus for an unforgettable discussion about the most urgent and transformational topic facing our profession: longevity. In this compelling episode, Dr. Janke shares the foundational principles behind his “Empire Longevity” movement and why it matters more than ever.

James and Otto dive deep into the sacred trust, the nervous system’s role in optimal health, and how chiropractic can—and must—be seen as the catalyst for more, better years. This episode is more than philosophy; it’s a call to action for chiropractors to lead the charge into a healthier, more empowered future.

HIGHLIGHTS

·      Dr. Janke introduces his vision of “Empire Longevity”—a practical and principled approach to health and longevity.

·      Explains why the nervous system must be optimized as the foundation of any longevity plan.

·      Presents published research connecting chiropractic adjustments with improved heart rate variability and therefore, increased lifespan.

·      Shares a bold, paradigm-shifting equation: Chiropractic → HRV → Longevity.

·      Offers a deeply personal anecdote about the six words his mother shared before her passing that inspired his mission.

·      Advocates for starting longevity from preconception, expanding care to babies and pregnant women.

·      Urges chiropractors to become better communicators and leaders, not just adjusters.

DIVING INTO…

Staying True to Chiropractic Principles

Otto doesn’t mince words—chiropractic is about life, not just pain. He stresses that without an optimized nervous system, even the best lifestyle practices fall short. Subluxation correction is not a secondary consideration in longevity—it’s the foundation.

The Nervous System as the Cornerstone

Using both personal conviction and published data, Dr. Janke makes the case that chiropractic must reclaim its role in the longevity conversation. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) becomes a quantifiable bridge between the adjustment and long-term vitality. If HRV improves with adjustments, and HRV is a marker of longevity, then chiropractic is essential to living a long, vibrant life.

Building More, Better Years

Dr. Janke challenges the profession to reframe health not as the absence of disease, but as the presence of vibrancy and years lived well. From sleep to motion to food and emotional health—these are all supercharged by a nervous system free of interference. His three guiding criteria? Reasonable. Effective. Cost-effective.

Leading the Future Through Communication

One of the most urgent challenges facing chiropractors today, Otto argues, is poor communication. Many don’t know how to tell the story—or even what the story is. He calls for schools to mandate communication training and urges every DC to hone their storytelling skills. Because when patients understand, they stay.

CLOSING THOUGHT

“More, better years” isn’t a slogan—it’s a strategy. One grounded in the nervous system, fueled by subluxation correction, and powered by a profession ready to step into its full role in humanity’s future.

INTRODUCING DR. JOHN OHM DC

Dr. John Ohm DC joins the Chiro Hustle Podcast to bring a fresh yet deeply philosophical perspective to our profession. Born into a chiropractic family, John not only continues a legacy but redefines it by integrating German New Medicine with subluxation-based chiropractic. 

In this episode, we dive into his upbringing, the roots of the Webster Technique, and his pivotal role as editor of Pathways to Family Wellness magazine. If you’re a DC who believes in protecting the Sacred Trust, this conversation is your kind of jam.

https://chirohustle.com/german-new-medicine-and-growing-up-in-a-chiro-family-with-dr-john-ohm-dc-chiro-hustle-podcast-680/

HIGHLIGHTS

• How German New Medicine overlays seamlessly with chiropractic philosophy, identifying “subluxations in the brain” and their effect on organ function.

• The idea of biological programs of adaptation—and how stress-induced lesions in the brain manifest as symptoms in the body.

• Why inflammation and disease may not be breakdowns, but signs of healing in motion.

• The influence of DD Palmer’s 1910 work and how Dr. Ohm sees its fulfillment in modern discoveries.

• The origin and impact of Pathways magazine, now on its 83rd issue.

• The importance of birth skills and how they tie directly into the principles behind the Webster Technique.

• The role of chiropractic in family dynamics, pregnancy, and pediatric care.

DIVING INTO…

The Brain-Body Connection, Reimagined

Dr. Ohm explains how German New Medicine identifies lesions in the brain (known as “hamer herds”) that mirror vertebral subluxations. These brain lesions—triggered by emotional or biological conflict shocks—initiate organ-specific adaptations that we typically interpret as disease. It’s a revelation that supports and amplifies the chiropractic principle: life expresses intelligence.

Chiropractic Roots, Reignited

Growing up in a family immersed in chiropractic, John’s journey is woven with tradition and vision. He shares how the early efforts of his late mother, co-founder of ICPA’s Pathways magazine, became the foundation for a movement. Her humble newsletter blossomed into a worldwide wellness publication that educates parents and practitioners alike.

Birth Skills and the Webster Legacy

John brings clarity to the often misunderstood Webster Technique—not merely for turning breech babies but as a neuromechanical tool to balance the mother’s pelvis and support optimal birth outcomes. He introduces the concept of birth skills as the missing half of the birth conversation and how Webster Technique sits at its epicenter.

Chiropractic’s Future is Family

In a world increasingly disconnected from natural processes, Dr. Ohm offers a vision of empowerment. When families understand how to participate actively in health and birth, supported by principled chiropractors, the profession’s future becomes not only viable—but vital.

INTRODUCING DR. NICK ATHENS DC

This week on the Chiro Hustle Podcast, we sit down with a true chiropractic veteran, Dr. Nick Athens DC. With over four decades in the field, Dr. Athens brings not just a lifetime of clinical experience but also a powerful message for chiropractors about staying “locked in,” mastering their craft, and living the chiropractic lifestyle. We dive into his new book “To Health With You” and uncover his timeless wisdom for living a healthier, longer, and more purposeful life.

HIGHLIGHTS

·      42 years of high-volume, subluxation-based practice in San Carlos, CA

·      Adjusted NFL legend Joe Montana pre-game, generating $1.5M in media exposure for chiropractic

·      First ICA Sports Chiropractor of the Year; former team chiropractor for the San Francisco Giants

·      Stresses that chiropractic care is as essential for mental health as it is for physical

·      Developed morning rituals and lifestyle habits that fuel longevity and peak performance

·      Shares insights from his book, which distills 750,000+ adjustments and 27,000+ patient experiences

·      Advocates for building a health-focused support team and staying engaged with state associations

ABOUT DR. NICK ATHENS DC

Dr. Nick Athens DC, based in San Carlos, California, has served the chiropractic community for over 42 years. Known for his work with elite athletes like Joe Montana and Barry Bonds, Dr. Athens is now focused on sharing longevity strategies through his book, public speaking, and continued patient care.

STAYING LOCKED IN AFTER 4 DECADES

Dr. Athens opens up about what it takes to stay passionate and effective in practice after 42 years. His secret? Daily discipline. He wakes at 4:30am to train, stays mentally and physically aligned, and continues to refine his technique and patient education. He views each adjustment as a performance, akin to a pro athlete stepping onto the field—and he emphasizes the power of being fully present with each patient.

THE MENTAL-EMOTIONAL LINK TO CHIROPRACTIC

One of the most compelling takeaways from this interview is Dr. Athens’ perspective on chiropractic’s impact on mental health. He explains how subluxation affects not just posture and pain but also a patient’s mood, self-esteem, and ability to engage in life. When you correct subluxations, you don’t just relieve symptoms—you reboot their system. It’s mind-body healing at its core.

BUILDING A LIFESTYLE PRACTICE

Rather than preaching health, Dr. Athens lives it. His practice is a testament to the idea that consistency in lifestyle and care delivers generational impact. His book, “To Health With You,” simplifies healthy aging into actionable steps, with chiropractic at the heart of the journey. It’s not just a manual for patients—it’s a blueprint for DCs to better serve and guide.

SUPPORTING STATE ASSOCIATIONS AND BUILDING A TRIBE

Dr. Athens passionately advocates for DCs to get involved with their state associations, not only to protect the profession legislatively but to recharge by being in community with other chiropractors. He also encourages doctors to help patients build their own support systems—a healthcare team that reinforces vitalistic living, much like a V-formation of geese.

CLOSING THOUGHT

“Would you pay to see yourself adjust? If the answer isn’t yes, it’s time to level up.”

Dr. Trevor Marum DC brings a refreshingly unique perspective to the world of chiropractic. In this powerful episode, he sits down with host James Chester to share what it was like becoming a chiropractor later in life—after a career in fitness and elite-level training.

From professional athlete to principled adjuster, Dr. Marum’s story is all about transformation, responsibility, and staying true to chiropractic’s sacred principles. This episode explores patient responsibility, technique diversity, subluxation-centered care, and why every DC should be teaching.

•            Trained in multiple techniques, he uses everything from upper cervical to extremity adjusting.

•            He runs a referral-only practice serving everyone from newborns to seniors.

ABOUT DR. TREVOR MARUM DC

Dr. Trevor Marum DC is a subluxation-centered chiropractor practicing in the Pacific Northwest. He blends upper cervical work with extremity techniques and neurological therapies to serve a diverse patient base—from newborns to seniors. Formerly a professional athlete and gym owner, he brings a deep reverence for movement, lifestyle, and innate healing.

DIVING INTO…

Staying True to Chiropractic Principles

Dr. Marum’s journey into chiropractic was sparked not by a miracle story, but by a deep physical awareness cultivated over years as an elite trainer and athlete. After one life-altering upper cervical adjustment, he knew chiropractic was his calling. He quickly realized that not all chiropractic schools honor the sacred trust or even teach about subluxation. He credits Life West with staying true to the philosophy.

The Power of Patient Responsibility

In Dr. Marum’s practice, healing is a shared process. He sets expectations clearly: patients have homework. Whether it’s education, lifestyle changes, or pantry overhauls, his approach helps patients become active participants in their care. This patient ownership is crucial, especially when paired with community-building activities like in-house lectures and Q&A events.

Technique Matters: Tools for Every Body

From knee-chest to muscle activation, Dr. Marum believes in mastering a variety of techniques. Why? Because every body is different. He discusses how misaligned ankles can affect skull positioning, or why adjusting babies isn’t the same as adjusting athletes. He tailors his care to the individual, never compromising on the art of the adjustment.

Building a Referral-Only Practice

Dr. Marum didn’t rely on marketing gimmicks. Instead, he served powerfully and let results speak for themselves. Taking on complex cases and delivering miracles turned his patients into his greatest advocates. Today, his womb-to-tomb practice is built on trust, transformation, and teaching.

CLOSING THOUGHT

“Chiropractic doesn’t cure anything. We simply correct subluxations, and the body does the rest.”

Dr. Marc J. Surprenant is the founder of Family Healing Chiropractic in Charlotte, NC. With over 25 years in practice, he is known for combining deep chiropractic philosophy with real-world experience as a coach and mentor to chiropractors and students alike.

DIVING INTO…

Staying True to Chiropractic Principles

Dr. Surprenant emphasizes that chiropractic must remain rooted in its foundational philosophy. Whether you use lasers or decompression or shockwave - never stop adjusting, and never stop teaching the principle. His journey from patient to doctor began with four medications, which he no longer needed once he was under care. That transformation fuels his lifelong passion.

The Power of Service Over Ego

From working in parking lots at church to traveling to Asheville to serve volunteers, Dr. Surprenant shares how the best way to find purpose is to show up without ego. Serving others is what kept his fire alive, even when things were hard, and it continues to be his north star.

Coaching: The Accountability Gamechanger

Early in his career, Dr. Surprenant was bartending to stay afloat. It wasn’t until someone told him the hard truth - “You suck because you have no coach” - that he found direction. Today, he’s passing that wisdom forward with a focus on helping chiropractors reconnect with their purpose and establish systems that help them thrive.

The Miracle of Timmy

A powerful moment in the episode is the story of a child with a terminal autoimmune disorder. After exhausting all medical options, his family turned to chiropractic. The results were nothing short of miraculous - he’s now a thriving adult, and it all started with the removal of interference.

Final Takeaway

“If your life sucks - go serve more.” Dr. Surprenant doesn’t just say it. He lives it. And it might just be the simplest, most powerful advice you’ll hear all year.

Building the Movement Through Focus OKC

Born from a burst of inspiration on a bike ride, Focus OKC grew from a grassroots gathering into one of chiropractic’s most influential philosophy events. Dr. Young shares how it not only connects like-minded DCs, but also spurred others like Mile High and Chiro Fest to spring forth.

Mastery Through Adjusting & Mentorship

The Motion Specific Technique (MST) that Dr. Young teaches isn’t just about the “how” of adjusting—it’s about embodying certainty, speed, and intention. He gives students and chiropractors direct video access to observe his clinical process, making learning visceral and immediate.

Empowering the Next Generation

Dr. Young makes an impassioned plea to chiropractors: adopt a student, invite them into your office, and teach them what school never will. With raw honesty, he explains that chiropractic colleges can’t make you successful—but the community can.

Dr. Carlos Selles, DC is the General Director of QuiroHealth Centers in Puerto Rico and a widely respected consultant, speaker, and mentor to Spanish-speaking chiropractors. His impact spans decades, and his return to adjusting has only deepened his commitment to the chiropractic mission.

DIVING INTO...

Returning to Practice: A Rediscovery of Purpose

After stepping away from the adjusting table for 15 years to manage and grow his clinics, Dr. Selles was thrust back into care when several associates left unexpectedly.
