Experience What’s Possible

By Quest, Tips & Guides

Everything is constantly moving. Even inanimate objects aren’t really motionless. They are just vibrating so rapidly they appear to be solid. That’s why it’s important to constantly reassess. Even your practice’s color scheme needs to be reassessed on a regular basis. Nothing stays constant. And fearing change won’t do you any good. It only holds you back from “what’s possible.” It keeps you rigid and promotes inflexibility and ultimately death. Think about this…If you brood about change and hope everything…

The Void

By Inspiration, Quest

Practice and life can feel like a series of high wire trapeze swings.  Imagine yourself hanging tightly on to a trapeze bar swinging backwards and forwards and then for a few moments, at a time, letting go and hurtling through space and navigating your outstretched hands to grasp on to another trapeze bar swinging towards you? Most of the time we are tightly hanging on to our trapeze-bar-of-the-moment.  It carries you along at a certain steady rate of swing and…

Why Change?

By Inspiration, Quest

The next few blogs will focus on the topic of transformation. When we consider the dictionary definition of transformation we find words like – change in form, appearance, nature or character. The operative work here is change. Transformation is the process of change across form – or from one form to another. What you experienced yesterday is gone because the world changes every day. Your body changes. People change. Weather changes. Relationships change. Prices change. Emotions change. Circumstances change. Practices…

Behind Roles Lie Responsibilities

By Inspiration, Quest

In accordance with your philosophy and your critical reasoning process you will reach a point in your journey when you are confronted with the question of “how do I apply my philosophy to this situation”? This brings up the question around what are your roles and responsibilities? Whilst a role is a process for doing something, for example, adjusting, it has little impact or effectiveness on your results unless it is firmly tied to and congruent with your philosophy. A…

Smart Thinking

By Quest, Support

Warning. This article has a push towards Quest and its services – a sort of infomercial if you will. It is in response to the questions and situations we encounter with chiropractors seeking our services on a daily basis and I thought it worthy of discussion. As a chiropractor in the ‘trenches’, it is easy to cocoon within your practice ‘bubble’ and not notice the familiar things that are not working but you still keep doing. There is one thing…

Associate Practice Mastery

By Associate Practice, Quest, Your Practice

In my 40 plus years experience in creating and running associate practices I wouldn’t want to practice any other way. However my observation from coaching untold hundreds of chiropractors is that relatively few associate relationships work to the mutual satisfaction of both parties. It seems like there is a typical pattern here. The associate’s initial incantations of “I would give anything to work for you” soon turn into “you expect me to do too much” or “I’m not getting enough…

Light Up Their Lives – Chiropractic Vision

By Inspiration, Quest

BJ Palmer described the chiropractic clinical interaction as being of two components, the quantity and the quality. The quantity factor addresses the relationship between the physical factors of brain, spine, nerve system, organs, tissues and cells. This includes our attention on the correction of interference to the structural and the neuronal components of the subluxation complex. The quality factor is the ‘soft’ side of our attention. Quality addresses interference to thinking, perception and the emotional factors. This directly affects the…

What is the most appropriate health care?

By Inspiration, Quest

It’s common to think that the people presenting at your practice want an immediate outcome to their presenting condition and nothing more. The thought is that people want a treatment for their given malady and they want the care to be effective, short term and affordable. There is a tendency for chiropractors and practice members to focus on the ‘content’ of the signs and symptoms rather than the ‘context’ around the journey of life and the actions we employ to…

Your Merry Legacy

By Quest

As we slip into the end of year mode and prepare for the year ahead it is a good time to reflect on that which was during 2016 whilst at the same time also consider that which could have been during the year. During the year, we at Quest have seen huge changes occurring in the chiropractic profession. While some have gone into ‘reset’ mode and shrunk in the face of antipathy many chiropractors have kicked back and ‘kicked butt’…

How do you eat an elephant?

By Quest, Your Practice

There are many obstacles that stand in your way of being able to provide your chiropractic service at an optimal level to your community. Sometimes that task seems so huge that it even seems fruitless to start. The medical machine is so pervasive and it has spread its tentacles into every corner of people’s minds. It is in the battle for people’s minds that success or failure is determined. It’s a big job and yet it can be done and…

Dangerous Idea

A Dangerous Idea

By Quest, Your Practice

This past week we have seen the annual ‘Festival of Dangerous Ideas’ feature in Sydney. On reviewing the content of some of the speakers I wondered, where are the chiropractors? If any idea is dangerous to the status quo of society right now it is chiropractic. How dangerous the chiropractic idea is may be evidenced by the vicious attacks, misinformation and attempts to contain the chiropractic profession that have escalated in recent time. The continuous volleys of fire that are…
