Dr. Daniel Bockmann, DC talks to Dr. Justin Trosclair DC on A Doctor's Perspective Podcast.

We breakdown MSK injuries to the fundamentals of a mobility or stability issue. Daniel Bockmann DC walks us through his eval and rehab flow with an Achilles tendon as a demo. As well as his work with volleyball, musicians and starting his own seminar.

How did he figure out he liked the functional rehab aspect of chiropractic care?  Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation for Spine and Extremities is his passion. Getting out of pain is one thing but getting someone to return to play is a different ballgame.

Dr. Bockmann even works on post-operative injuries which is somewhat unique for a chiropractor.

His 5 methods of treatment for mobility or stability are: stretches, exercise, massage, spinal manipulation, and lifestyle modification. His core thoughts on injury are: a stability problem (tight or loose) or a mobility problem (too much or little).

Craig Liebenson - Functional Rehabilitation of the Spine- FPM courses, Stuart McGill, PhD, and Gray Cook-SFMA Selective Functional Movement Assessment are some of Dr. Daniel’s major influencers.

Dr. Bockmann will break down his stability or mobility ideas for us and discuss treatment options including what low tech equipment he utilizes.

Achilles tendon injury happened during the NBA Finals so we have a chat about the mechanism of injury and ways to prevent and rehab it. One common comment from the injured player is “who hit my ankle or it felt like a gun shot.”

What is his mark to know if you love what you do everyday?

When looking for an associate job, see if you can work on off hours and just pay rent based on a percentage of collections. It’s like building your own clinic and the owner understands that you will be opening up in town at some point in the future.

His number one marketing tip: Reviews on google and yelp. What is his advice on when to ask for reviews?

How did he start adjusting Bands that our Touring through his area… along with being a volleyball AVP go to chiropractor for Austin?

Dr. Bockmann is rolling out his own hands-on 1 day seminars to teach you about his mobility or stability rehab approach. He walks you through everything from the exam, explaining the problem to the patient, all the soft tissue work and exercises and releasing the patient.

Dr. Daniel even discusses his fees and treatment length. We tie that into high deductibles and meeting patient expectations and clinic goals. Patients want to get out of pain and get back to their activities.

PSFS, patient specific function scale, is his go to Outcome Assessment. Ask the 3 activities that you are most limited from because of pain. Have the patient score them 0 – 10 (0 is can’t do). Get the average and when you revisit those activities in 6 visits or the reexam and the final release, you should see an improvement of in that average.

On the vacation question, he gives a creative and sometimes forgotten way to take cheaper vacations: credit card points.
