Why Good Chiropractors Get Ignored by People They’re Trying to Help


Listen Later

You’re not doing bad work. You’re not unclear. And you’re not dealing with “unmotivated” people.

So why does your message sometimes land flat?

In this episode of the Questing Chiropractor, we unpack why good chiropractors get ignored, resisted, or politely nodded at by the very people they care most about helping, and what’s actually driving that response beneath the surface.

This is a deep dive into human behaviour, communication, and the hidden structures that determine whether ideas create buy-in or bounce off.

🧠 What you’ll learn:

  • Why resistance is often a structural mismatch, not a people problem
  • How teams and practice members process ideas differently than chiropractors expect
  • How to create environments that naturally produce engagement, not compliance
