Good to know
What to know before you market a chiropractic clinic
A chiropractic clinic lives on two numbers: new patients each week and how many of them finish a care plan. Ads and search pages bring the first visit, but the schedule only fills when people come back for the next adjustment. That is why the work covers recall and reactivation from the start, not only traffic, and why the monthly report shows booked visits rather than clicks.
State board advertising rules
Each state chiropractic board sets its own advertising rules, and the FTC prohibits claims a clinic cannot support. Wording about curing conditions, specialist titles and before and after claims is where clinics get letters. The specialist keeps copy to what you treat and how, and flags any claim your doctors should confirm before it goes live.
Patient stories and HIPAA
A video of a patient praising their recovery is protected health information once it names a condition or treatment, so it needs written authorization from that patient. Replies to online reviews follow the same logic: thank the reviewer without confirming they are a patient. The team builds an authorization step into every request for a patient story.
New patient offers and auto injury cases
Discounted first exams are common, yet they can raise issues for patients covered by Medicare or other federal programs and with some state boards, so the offer wording is reviewed. Personal injury cases bring their own limits, since many states restrict soliciting accident victims. Campaigns for auto injury care target searches, never lists of people in crashes.
