In this insightful episode, Dr. FJ delves into the strategic approach for attracting the right patients for decompression therapy, focusing on those with stenosis, disc issues, and radiculopathies.

In this episode of the Schofield Chiropractic Training podcast, Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ Schofield dive into a powerful concept: focusing on physiology over psychology. Dr. FJ discusses how this approach, championed by Dr. Fred, has brought great success to those who have implemented it. They explore the idea that while psychology often leads to over-analysis, chiropractors should emphasize the perfection of physiology, seeing the body’s innate ability to align and heal.

Dr. Fred shares a personal story involving Dr. Grant Johnson, a PhD in psychology, who taught him the importance of not getting stuck in "analysis paralysis" after the loss of his brother. This lesson reinforced the belief that chiropractic care is rooted in the philosophy of a science, not just a mindset.

Dr. FJ compares this approach to military training, where the transformation from recruits to warriors starts with intense physical conditioning that changes their mindset. This mirrors how chiropractors should focus on their daily routines and processes to cultivate success. The hosts also emphasize the importance of not getting too high or low based on daily performance but instead tracking long-term averages for sustainable growth.

This episode is a must-listen for chiropractors looking to refine their approach to practice, stay grounded, and avoid burnout by focusing on the physical process that underpins their work.
