Not all chiropractic offices decorate or celebrate during the time of Halloween. Our chiropractic office in the beach cities of Los Angeles has been decorated with different themes year after year. We used to have candy guessing contests but this year we’ve moved away from the sugary sweets and are focusing more on a theme for the day.

There’s nothing like having a loyal dog in your family. Dogs such as Labrador retrievers seem to experience great joy in just bringing you stuff. They don’t bring you a dead bird for instance, leaving it on the front porch for your discovery, and expect anything in return.

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has stepped forward on behalf of sound public policy and acted in the best interests of the chiropractic profession and the public by vetoing the dangerous and disruptive Senate Bill 801.

The idea of candy eating chiropractors is not one that would be very popular for a number of reasons. When it comes to eating and chiropractic, it’s more likely for you to hear your chiropractor speak of Sun Chlorella, Super Greens, Mangosteen Juice, or some other product loaded with phytonutrients, probiotics, and/or immune boosting nutrients.

Supporters of the Ron Paul Revolution were evangelizing out on the streets of Tempe this past weekend, while thousands were in town for the ASU vs. Washington Huskies game at Sun Devils Stadium. It started online and now it’s moving into the physical world, I’m beginning to see this guy’s name in more places and I’m recognizing someone is doing a hell of a job at getting the message out.

There is no denying that the Internet provides many new opportunities for small businesses to better reach their customer base. Significant growth is being seen online in areas such as pay per click advertising and search engine marketing, just to name two. While it’s easy to get excited about these new forms of spreading the word, it’s important for small-business owners not to forget a simple and valuable tool in garnering new client relationships, the internal industry referral.

Classified advertising is growing all over the Internet, thanks to features online marketplace web sites are offering, such as ease-of-use, RSS syndication, localization, and user generated management of content.

Sometimes it’s good to get outside the box of one’s own industry to discover what commonalities we may have with others. Developing a better understanding as to how others perceive your industry can go a long way in finding ways to provide better communications and services. A few weeks ago I came across a popular breast-feeding blog authored by a woman named Jennifer Laycock. While I was reading through some of the posts, I found myself thinking this was the type of blog I’d suggest visitors of Planet Chiropractic read. What I found most interesting though was that until I came across Jennifer’s blog, I had only known her as the Editor of a popular online guide to better understanding search engines.

I’d like to think we can help people find the information they’re looking for when visiting the planet chiropractic web site. I know people don’t always find what it is they first came here for, but hopefully they’ll discover something of interest while visiting.

My wife was bitten on the finger by a rattlesnake late this August. She was reaching for the perfect tomato nested in the weeds beneath a large tomato plant in the garden where we live in the foothills of Southern California. We named it the $64,000 tomato.

Everything from hotels, airlines, restaurants, nightclubs, churches, and chiropractic offices, are being searched for online. People aren’t necessarily wanting to learn about nightclubs for instance, they want to know if there is one near them, so they can go party like a rockstar.

Part of a successful chiropractic practice is having a strong network of Chiropractors to be able to refer out to, when needed. Primarily I refer patients to my colleagues when they live to far away to keep on track with their prescribed care plan. The Chiropractor needs to be within close enough of a proximity in which the patient can maximize their care.
