In this episode of All Things Chiropractic, hosts Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini interview Dr. William Owens about his journey from a lacrosse injury to a practice that lives at the intersection of holistic chiropractic and mainstream medicine. Dr. Owens explains how his diagnostic focus, advanced imaging use, and partnerships with primary care and specialists have led to 85–90% of his patients arriving via medical referral.

Key topics include the importance of imaging and standardized documentation, communicating effectively with physicians and staff, building maintenance (cash) care models alongside medical referrals, and the need for residencies and advanced training to elevate the profession. Dr. Owens also describes his National Spine Management work, residency/fellowship programs, and how chiropractors can contact him via LinkedIn (William Owens / National Spine Management) to learn more.

In this episode Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini welcome Dr. Mitch Mally, a 46‑year practitioner and international speaker known for the Mally Method. They cover his journey into chiropractic, his focus on extremity care, experiences treating athletes and celebrities, and his dedication to hands‑on, drug‑free solutions.

Key topics include how extremities affect spinal function, real clinical examples (including a fast‑pitch player whose chronic rib pain was resolved with a heel lift), mentorship and training for new doctors, and tips for building a practice centered on finding root causes rather than masking symptoms.

Dr. Mally also discusses his VIP concierge program, global seminars, and resources for clinicians and patients seeking advanced hands‑on care and practical strategies to improve outcomes. extremityexperts.com

Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini on All Things Chiropractic explore what it means to be an "excellent patient." This episode covers practical guidelines for setting expectations, defining your ideal patient, aligning staff and clinical identity, and the business impact of boundaries and referrals.

Key takeaways include: defining and writing down your ideal patient profile, communicating expectations to patients and staff, refusing to compromise essential clinical recommendations, knowing when to refer out, and using clear exchange principles to build a happier, more sustainable practice.

In this episode of All Things Chiropractic hosts Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini talk with Dr. Stu Hoffman, longtime chiropractor and leader at ChiroSecure, about his family history in chiropractic, the evolution of practice models, and the role of malpractice insurance in protecting clinicians and patients.

Topics include the shift from solo to corporate and multi‑doctor practices, coaching and mentorship for new graduates, common malpractice claims (broken ribs, stroke concerns), risk‑management strategies, the importance of clear patient communication and documentation, and the value of early reporting to your insurer. Dr. Hoffman also discusses public perception, ICD‑11/coding work connected to his family, and practical advice on safe, skillful adjusting.

Hosts Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini examine the Luigi Mangione case — the 2024 shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson — and explore the alleged motives tied to frustrations with the U.S. health insurance system. They discuss the case details, media reaction, and the broader question of violence, mental state, and misplaced activism.

The episode breaks down systemic healthcare issues cited in the conversation: soaring premiums (over 325% since 2000), rising deductibles and copays, restrictive medical policies, pre-authorizations and gatekeepers, and the real-world impact on providers and patients. The hosts also note insurers’ reactions and the tension between coverage on paper and actual access to care.

Turning to chiropractic practice, Paul and Dr. Davini offer practical takeaways for providers: focus on demonstrating and selling the value of chiropractic beyond insurance, consider direct-pay and supportive services, empower staff and patients, and use this tragic case as a moment to reflect on constructive ways to address systemic frustrations without resorting to violence.

Attorney Jennifer Herlihy joins hosts Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini to discuss chiropractic malpractice and board defense. Topics include trial preparation and strategy, depositions, juror vetting, common board allegations (including stroke and inappropriate touching), the impact of social media and billboard marketing, and the rise of high-stakes catastrophic claims. Attorney Herlihy shares real-world stories from her 25+ years defending health professionals and emphasizes the role of expert witnesses and realistic expectations about outcomes.

Listeners will learn practical advice for clinicians: be proactive with documentation, compliance, and continuing education; never alter notes after a complaint; involve your malpractice carrier early; seek mental-health support when stressed; and avoid dating patients. Expect candid legal insights, tips to manage investigations, and takeaways to better protect your practice.

Join Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini on All Things Chiropractic as they explore how to identify high‑quality continuing education for chiropractors. This episode covers why CE exists, how times (and techniques) are changing rapidly—post‑COVID and with AI—and what to look for when vetting courses and presenters.

Paul and Dr. Davini discuss the regulatory perspective, minimum safety standards, scope‑of‑practice issues, and the difference between content that merely awards hours versus content that changes practice. They share real examples (kinesiology, acupuncture, cupping), the value of in‑person learning, and the importance of including staff training like billing and coding.

Practical tips include checking presenter credentials and reviews, choosing topics that interest and will impact your clinic, knowing your state’s regulations before adopting techniques, and using CE to build confidence rather than just tick a box.

Expect actionable advice for new grads and seasoned doctors alike on selecting CE that’s meaningful, practice‑changing, and keeps you and your team current and competent.

Join hosts Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini with special guest Dr. Heidi Haavik as they explore the latest science behind chiropractic care. Dr. Haavik, a chiropractor and PhD in human neurophysiology, explains how subluxations affect paraspinal muscles and brain function, why precise adjustments produce widespread changes, and how chiropractic care can influence sleep, blood pressure, digestion, tinnitus and more.

The episode covers research findings on muscle recruitment, neuroimmune markers, gene expression changes after care, and clinical trials that compare techniques and outcomes. Dr. Haavik discusses the importance of translating science into clear patient communication, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the role of platforms like Chiroshub.com in educating clinicians and patients.

Explore Dr. Haavik’s personal story, professional insights on technique versus art, the need for the profession to “own its science,” and upcoming masterclasses on chiropractic and the immune system. Expect practical takeaways for practitioners and patients about regular care, how adjustments can ‘wake up’ the brain, and the future direction of chiropractic research.
