In this episode of the Schofield Chiropractic Training podcast, Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ Schofield dive into a powerful concept: focusing on physiology over psychology. Dr. FJ discusses how this approach, championed by Dr. Fred, has brought great success to those who have implemented it. They explore the idea that while psychology often leads to over-analysis, chiropractors should emphasize the perfection of physiology, seeing the body’s innate ability to align and heal.
Dr. Fred shares a personal story involving Dr. Grant Johnson, a PhD in psychology, who taught him the importance of not getting stuck in "analysis paralysis" after the loss of his brother. This lesson reinforced the belief that chiropractic care is rooted in the philosophy of a science, not just a mindset.
Dr. FJ compares this approach to military training, where the transformation from recruits to warriors starts with intense physical conditioning that changes their mindset. This mirrors how chiropractors should focus on their daily routines and processes to cultivate success. The hosts also emphasize the importance of not getting too high or low based on daily performance but instead tracking long-term averages for sustainable growth.
This episode is a must-listen for chiropractors looking to refine their approach to practice, stay grounded, and avoid burnout by focusing on the physical process that underpins their work.

He wasn't thrilled about the prospect of spending three years studying anatomy and physiology and had to adapt to making quick, 59-second calls home to avoid high charges. To support himself, he worked as a janitor at Palmer College, living on $200 a month and surviving on a diet of spaghetti, olive oil, garlic, and cured Parma ham he'd brought in his luggage.
Struggling to find his purpose in school, Dr. Fred shares his frustrations and his "AHA moment" inspired by Bill Bane's teachings on the importance of balancing the inner and outer game. This realization led Dr. Fred to focus on his inner game, creating monthly packs of materials and inspiration to fuel his motivation.
Dr. Fred recounts his determination to learn from the geniuses of chiropractic, immersing himself in the techniques and wisdom of legendary practitioners. He recalls the first time he was asked about his goals at age 25, a pivotal moment that sparked his self-discovery journey.
Tune in for humorous and insightful stories of Dr. Fred's encounters with pioneering chiropractors, the importance of mastering palpation, and the significance of knowing your inner game as a practitioner.

In this episode of the Schofield Chiropractic Training podcast, coaches Dr. FJ Schofield and Dr. Fred Schofield dive into a conversation about time and destiny. They kick things off with a heartwarming story from Dr. FJ's childhood. When young Dr. FJ asked his father, "What time is it?" Dr. Fred simply replied, "It's the right time." This concept of "Synchronicity Time" versus "Biological Time" sets the stage for a discussion on how we perceive and manage our time.
Dr. Fred shares his incredible journey into chiropractic care, beginning with a rugby injury at 14 that led to back pain and the threat of exploratory surgery. Six years later, at the Toyota Championship, a transformative adjustment from Dr. Roy—who focused on Dr. Fred's Atlas rather than his back—set him on the path to chiropractic.
Dr. Fred's tale doesn't end there. He recounts his adventures from playing rugby in Italy to a fateful encounter that directed him to Palmer College of Chiropractic. Despite facing visa issues and last-minute hurdles, a series of serendipitous events, including a Swiss bank account and a chance meeting at an airport, ensured he made it to Palmer just in time.
Join Dr. FJ and Dr. Fred as they reflect on the importance of timing, resilience, and the unexpected turns that led to their success in chiropractic. Their stories remind us that what is meant for you will come to you, and it's always the right time.

Welcome to another episode of the Schofield Chiropractic Training Podcast with hosts & coaches Dr. FJ and Dr. Fred Schofield. As we dive into the new year, 2024, the focus is on evaluating our weaknesses. Having coached Chiropractors for more than 37 years, a prevalent challenge in achieving success is the pivotal significance of faith in one's technique. Simply put, if the doctor lacks belief in the method, the patients are unlikely to believe in it as well.
Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ stress the importance of non-verbal communication in chiropractic care, citing physiological responses through the vagal nerve. Techniques such as nodding, hands-on communication, and eye contact play a significant role. The doctor's unwavering belief becomes crucial in this game, asserting that all techniques work, but it's the doctor who makes the difference.
This episode advocates for an obsession with providing patients an unparalleled experience, something that AI cannot replicate. While acknowledging the place of technology, the hosts emphasize the primary role of building relationships with patients, asserting that chiropractic care goes beyond the capabilities of AI.
SCT Coaches also reflect on the historical advancements in chiropractic, from early X-rays to addressing thots, trauma, and toxins in the early 1900s – positioning chiropractic ahead of its time compared to medical practices at the time like lobotomy. The acceptance and comprehension of the chiropractic profession's philosophies regarding the innate immune system have become more widespread in society, gaining particular relevance in the post-pandemic era.
Tune in for insights into the growth of massage and hands-on chiropractic care, and discover why cultivating relationships and understanding patients' needs remains at the core of chiropractic practice.

Welcome to another episode of the Schofield Chiropractic Training Podcast with your hosts, Dr. FJ and Dr. Fred Schofield. In this insightful episode, the Rhino Coaches Dr. FJ and Dr. Fred reflect on the time of year, emphasizing the importance of looking back to understand where we come from in order to effectively plan for the future. The discussion revolves around the concept of goal setting and its profound impact on personal and professional life.
Dr. FJ and Dr. Fred delve into the idea that goals act as a compass, guiding individuals to prioritize tasks in the present moment. They stress the significance of long-term goals, highlighting that life is a continuous journey, and monetary success alone does not guarantee happiness. Dr. FJ advocates for balanced goal setting, urging docs to align their actions with their objectives.
A crucial aspect explored is the concept of aligned action as the key to successful goal execution. Whether you're new in practice or juggling family responsibilities, the Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ provide valuable insights into finding the right balance. They emphasize that while early stages of practice may demand hustle and growth, it's essential to reassess priorities as family dynamics evolve.
Recognize that the sacrifices made during growth phases are not permanent. You must challenge and acess your performance continually, identifying actions needed to embody your ultimate goals. Join Dr. FJ and Dr. Fred Schofield on a journey of self-discovery and actionable insights to enhance both personal and professional aspects of life.

Welcome to the Schofield Chiropractic Training podcast, where we explore the audacious world of chiropractic practice and the mindset required for success. In this episode SCT coaches, Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ as they dive into the transformative power of audacity in your chiropractic journey.
They kick off this episode by emphasizing the importance of courage in cultivating an audacious attitude. Vision, they argue, is intricately linked with courage – a compelling vision acts as a magnet, drawing you into a realm where you proclaim, "I WANT to do this." The duo acknowledges that struggle is something many chiropractors face in the early stages of their practices, emphasizing that these challenges are crucial for confirming one's commitment and desire for success.
The conversation delves into the necessity of being pushed outside your comfort zone. If success comes too easily, you risk complacency and lack the skills to adapt when competition arises or circumstances change. Dr. FJ and Dr. Fred stress the significance of having a compelling Mission, Vision, and Purpose, urging listeners to embrace discomfort and develop the courage to step into the unknown.
Drawing parallels between physical exercise and the audacious mindset, they highlight how facing discomfort in one arena makes it easier in another. Whether it's Tuesday cold plunges or consistently confronting the uncomfortable, building resilience prepares you for the challenges of professional life.
Dr. Fred reveals the secret to an audacious attitude – overcoming rejection. They stress the inevitability of rejection in any industry, citing the 80/20 principle. While 80% may embrace your value, 20% will reject you. The key, they assert, is confidence in your worth and resilience in the face of rejection. Acknowledge it, plan for it, and, most importantly, get over it.
Join Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ on this episode as they inspire chiropractors to embrace audacity, confront challenges head-on, and cultivate the courage needed for lasting success in the ever-evolving world of chiropractic practice.

Welcome to the latest episode of the Schofield Chiropractic Training podcast, brought to you by the MoChihChu Coaching Team! Join Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ as they talk about the profound importance of understanding and communicating your "WHY" in chiropractic practice.
They discuss the crucial connection between knowing your personal purpose and effectively articulating that to your patients. It's not just about what you're doing, but why you're doing it and how it directly impacts your patients' health. Even if your patients are feeling fantastic and pain-free, do they truly understand why they're still getting adjusted?
Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ emphasize the significance of aligning patients' goals beyond pain relief. Whether it's playing with grandkids, hitting the golf course, or tending to their gardens, understanding and communicating these goals is essential to maintaining realistic expectations.
They also explore the evolution of adjustments and x-rays, combining timeless wisdom from Dr. Tompson with the latest advancements in the field.
Finally Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ discuss the importance of keeping sustainability of your practice at the forefront of your mind. Is what you're doing in practice sustainable? Assess your skillset, personality, and marketing strategies to ensure your office is built for long-term success and the common missteps that offices take that lead to burnout and drop in patient volume, collections, and referrals.

While also highlighting the importance of being open-minded practitioners, willing to acknowledge and respect the unique viewpoints of patients.

The episode challenges Chiropractors to reflect on their approach to patient care—are you simply selling a treatment plan, or are you fostering a collaborative and trusting relationship with your patients? Dr. FJ and Dr. Fred provide insights on aligning your chiropractic philosophy with patient needs, ultimately fostering a strong foundation of trust that not only benefits individual patients but also leads to organic referrals from satisfied clients.

We've all witnessed the struggle many successful practitioners face when it comes to maintaining equilibrium between professional accomplishments and personal fulfillment. That's why we've brought together our in-house experts to explore the nuances of achieving a harmonious work-life balance.
Susan and Dr. FJ kick off the conversation by exploring the power of setting family goals and how this practice can create a positive domino effect in various aspects of family life. They emphasize the importance of implementing checklists and job descriptions at home, echoing the wisdom of BJ Palmer—run your home like a business and your business like a home.
The duo delves into the significance of focus, emphasizing that your effectiveness in the office is directly correlated with your success at home and vice versa. Short-term and long-term goal setting, especially in collaboration with your partner, takes center stage. By having a clear vision and understanding the potential sacrifices, you pave the way for a more purposeful journey.
Discover the vital role of values in shaping your home environment. Whether it's prioritizing family dinners or exposing your kids to diverse experiences, the podcast highlights the importance of aligning your actions with your family's core values.

Communication is the lifeblood of any thriving chiropractic office, and Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ emphasize its profound impact on your practice growth.
From internal self-talk to external patient communication, the words you choose can make all the difference. In fact, it's the quickest route to achieving remarkable improvements in your office.
Are you ready to witness your practice grow by leaps and bounds? By mastering your external communication, you can expect a substantial boost of 20-40% in your patient volume, without having to make other significant changes. The key lies in perfecting your communication during the first and second visits with your patients. This weekend, this week, invest your time in practicing, and you'll start seeing quick, tangible results.
One powerful tool that most chiropractors overlook is recording themselves. This humbling experience provides a clear view of your communication style. Are you effectively conveying the chiropractic story to your patients? Are you visually engaging them in the journey? Your visual communication plays a pivotal role, especially for the 30% of your patients who are visual learners.
But communication isn't just about how you talk to your patients; it's also about how you talk to yourself. Internal communication is a long-term investment, as it involves breaking a lifetime of self-talk patterns. While the changes may take time, they can have a massive impact on your confidence and the growth of your practice.
Join us as we explore the art of chiropractic communication, where every word and thought can reshape your journey towards success. Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ Schofield highlight the impact communication can have in helping you tell the story of chiropractic. Don't miss this episode; your practice's growth potential is just a conversation away!
Join Dr. FJ in this Q&A episode where he delves into crucial topics for chiropractors practitioners alike. Whether you're just starting your practice or looking to enhance your established one, Dr. FJ provides valuable insights on pressing questions:
Join Dr. FJ once a month on Tuesdays for zoom call where you can ask your questions live!
Join us for a thought-provoking episode of the Schofield Chiropractic Training podcast, where your hosts, Dr. FJ Schofield and Dr. Fred Schofield, roll up their sleeves and dive deep into the often-overlooked, but critically important, world of chiropractic business.
As chiropractors, it's not just about the art of adjustment; it's about understanding the financial health of your practice. In this candid conversation, we challenge the status quo with fundamental questions: Do you truly know your overhead? Do you grasp the actual cost of providing an adjustment? Are you aware of the expenses associated with acquiring a New Patient? Or are your fees determined by what the town down the street is charging?
Intriguingly, we explore the timing aspect of practice management. Do you bring in enough revenue to comfortably cover your overhead, and is it a stressful 28th-day scramble or a smoothly managed 10th-day accomplishment? Understanding these financial dynamics can make all the difference in your practice's sustainability and your peace of mind.
But it's not all about the numbers. We also emphasize the concept of Taking INTELLIGENT action. You may have all the tools and knowledge at your disposal, but it's the implementation that truly counts. What value are you delivering to your patients, and how does this align with your practice's mission?
This episode is a must-listen for chiropractors seeking to build not only successful but sustainable practices. We'll equip you with insights into financial awareness, pricing strategies, and the transformative power of delivering value. Tune in and discover the keys to unlocking the full potential of your chiropractic practice.
Remember, it's not just about the adjustment; it's about knowing the business of chiropractic inside and out. Join us on this journey to elevate your practice to new heights.
Note: Success in chiropractic practice extends beyond clinical skills; it requires a keen understanding of business fundamentals, pricing, and delivering exceptional value to patients.

In this enlightening episode of the Schofield Chiropractic Training podcast, join hosts and SCT coaches Dr. FJ Schofield and Dr. Fred Schofield as they delve deep into the foundational philosophy that underpins chiropractic care and its pivotal role in the healing process.
Chiropractic care is not merely about making adjustments; it's about understanding and embracing the profound philosophy that the body has an innate ability to heal itself. As Dr. FJ Schofield aptly puts it, "If you don't believe that the body heals from the inside out, you're never going to get good at adjusting."
Listen in as our hosts emphasize the significance of not questioning the principle but rather focusing on refining your application. Chiropractic care is not a matter of simply praying to innate intelligence and expecting miraculous healing; it's about the art and science of precision in adjustment.
Intriguingly, Dr. Fred Schofield shares an insightful excerpt from the Chiropractic Textbook by R.W Stephenson titled "the Missing Link." This invaluable text sheds light on the deep connection between philosophy and practice in chiropractic care, providing a blueprint for chiropractors to enhance their co-creative role in facilitating healing.
Whether you're a seasoned chiropractor or someone interested in understanding the philosophy behind this holistic approach to health, this episode will broaden your perspective and deepen your appreciation for the intricate balance between philosophy and precision in chiropractic care.
Tune in to explore the profound philosophy that guides chiropractors in helping the body tap into its innate healing potential, making every adjustment a step closer to optimal health.
Note: The Chiropractic Textbook by R.W Stephenson, "the Missing Link," serves as a cornerstone in the world of chiropractic philosophy, offering valuable insights into the profession's core principles and practices.
Welcome to Season 3 of the MoChihChu Podcast! In this episode, Rhino coaches Dr. FJ and Dr. Fred, talk about the biggest threat to long term success: BURNOUT Success is often measured by its sustainability over the long term. Burnout, by its nature, is not sustainable. It can lead to premature practice burnout, causing individuals to reach their peak potential earlier than they might have otherwise, and potentially resulting in a downward spiral in terms of career achievements and even home life. Burnout can lead to disengagement and a lack of motivation. Over time, this can hinder an individual's practice and home life, limiting their opportunities for long-term success. Burnout can also lead to dissatisfaction, prompting individuals to retire early, sell their practice, or even make a career changes. Check out today's episode to learn some tactics that both Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ implement to maintain and manage their energy in practice and at home! Interested in coaching with us?

Hey Rhinos, Dr. FJ Schofield
I want to go over an abbreviated version of some of the content I covered during our Digital Training. During the time of this video we are currently working through Covid-19, but this will be on YouTube for years to come so if there’s ever any crisis or recession this is valuable information you can use.
When I was in my 9th Trimester at Chiropractic school and my friend and I were putting together a business plan. You know, you’re excited, you’re ideological “we’re going to average 15 NP visits/week and we’re going to ….” So I show my dad, and he goes “you know this is great, and maybe you will grow this way. But you have to plan for the worst case scenario. You have to plan that some weeks you might only have 2 or 3 New Patients in the beginning, or none.”
You have to plan that way, you can expect the best, that’s great, but plan for the worst. In any crisis, whenever times are difficult, any planning period, it’s always best to plan for the worst. Expect the best, but plan for the worst.
So the most dangerous thing you can do right now in this crisis is be overly optimistic and assume it’s going to be done in a couple weeks. You have to plan as if this is going to go on for months and months and months. Plan for that, and if it doesn’t, GREAT, if it does, you’re ready for it.
So you need to Profit Forecast – Where are you going to be, if you continue to run like you’re running, where are you going to be in 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 5 months…
So you need to know your numbers. We have a 6 week average excel sheet we send to our Rhinos for them to plug their numbers in. If this is your first time figuring your 6 week averages out, start with the 6 weeks just prior to this crisis starting. Compare your “normal running” 6 week average with your last few weeks in this crisis. You’ll then know, “okay, I’m operating at 50%”. Okay now let’s forecast that out in 5, 6 , 7, 8 weeks operating at 50 % (or whatever that looks like for you) and see what that looks like. Okay, now these are our costs, this is where we’re operating, are we profiting? So you got to know your numbers and you have to forecast out. Don’t be overly optimistic!
Then you want to look at your missed billing report – your receiving accounts. Know how much is out there and then typically how much can you recoup within 30 days or 60 days.
It’s great to do a weekly forecast, biweekly, monthly – Any kind will give you any idea of where you’re going to be if this issue continues on for months. We don’t know, so we really have to plan for that.
So how much of your missed billing and aging can you get in a short amount of time? Where are we at, in current office operations, where is the performance at. What are we doing
Then you have to Project “as is”
If things stay as they are for the next 3-6 months. Can you turn a profit during that time. So you have to know your cost & your office performance. The next video will be about reducing overhead, where to turn a profit and how to keep your cash free. The number one thing is to make sure your business stays alive and that you can take care of your team and make payroll.
This is all going to position you to do that. So you got to be very, very real with what’s going on. Don’t be delusionally optimistic – the number 1 thing to take away. Just like when you’re opening your practice, you had to be real. Plan for the worst, I can’t say that enough. Hopefully you have saved money, and that you don’t have 3 homes and 7 cars that you don’t use. Know your numbers, how your office is operating and your cost. If this continues, how will you be in 6 months? Can you still turn a profit? This is the first 3 steps.
Remember, there is always opportunity after this is done.. It’s always darkest before dawn. THIS IS WHY WE TRAIN. This is why we talk about thriving in the jungle, this is what being a Rhino is about. You wanted to be a business owner, this is what you signed up for and this is why we train. TO be READY for these moments.
Keep Charging!
-Dr. FJ Schofield
I want to go over the number one productivity strategy I use and it has been a game-changer for me. I had a friend that I was working with that was going to an Elite Military Training and wanted to know what he could do. I told him this tip, this strategy and he later said that it was amazing. It made the difference for him and made everything else so much easier because he implemented this, each and every day.
it’s his really, really powerful. It seems simple and almost common sense - But so few people use it. The ones who do it makes a massive difference for them.
The tip for Productivity. You ready? Here it comes!
Rituals and Routines.
For a small business owner, chiropractor, entrepreneur, when you’ve got your family, you’ve got your children, your parents, you’re supposed to go to work in th business but you also want to work on the business plus take care of your own health. You want to eat right, you want to exercise, you want to have fun with some of your hobbies. Rituals and routines. Are the key and the number one reason it’s so important is because you only have a finite amount of mental energy. The more energy you used for questions like should I wear a red shirt or purple shirt? Should I have eggs or oatmeal? What do I want for dinner? You’re giving away mental energy. When am I going to eat again?
Dr. Fred has this hilarious story. He was at his highest volume -three, four hundred patients a day and Susan, my mom, asked him what he wanted for dinner. He said, “popcorn.”
He had just reached the maximum for decisions and mental energy for that day. He could not make another decision and so he stopped.
Hi Rhinos, Dr. FJ Schofield here, in this episode I'll be going over the 2nd part of the ROF, the Financial Presentation. This is by the far the most messed up part in the Communication Process; right there with the consultation, it’s so important. If you do a bad consultation you’re screwed, but if you mess this part up, even if you have an awesome consultation and great ROF you shoot yourself in the foot with the Financial Presentation
The Consultation your building rapport, building the trust, building your authority and positioning yourself as the expert so they know you can deliver, they trust you and now you’re going to clearly lay out the plan so they know: what you’re going to do, when you’re going to do, how they’re going to benefit and how much it’s going to cost them.
Everything is clearly laid out and you want to remove all the pressure from the situation, as I mentioned in the last Rhino University video on the R.O.F., letting people know it’s okay to say No. It’s so important to alleviate the pressure. You can relax; it can be a nice friendly conversation. You don’t need to use any fear or any manipulative tactic to build value – But you do have to cover some important & necessary things.
Dr. FJ Schofield Here.
A really, really important part of practice is the Report of Findings.
It’s huge! 1st and 2nd visit are obviously a big deal, and once you get those new patients in the door you have to then communicate effectively so they understand what is going on and so that they actually commit to care.
Most complaints that we hear from other patients that have gone to other chiropractors is that he or she didn’t explain anything.
“I would just come in, they’d adjust me and they’d say come back and I just had no idea about what was going on”
People want a plan, they want progression, and they want an explanation. Help them understand what’s going on in your mind. They want to know and it’s your responsibility to take them through the process. Start with this blue print
The biggest mistake that’s typically made is that people talk the entire time, not asking the patient question and going for way too long. If you don’t have a structured plan, you’re going to get wordy, talk too much and water down your message and impact. You end up not getting the people that you can help, but if you communicate the right way you’ll connect with the center bell curve of patients that will commit, that will follow through and that will get better. If you don’t communicate effectively to them then after 2 or 3 adjustments they’re going to give up, especially slow healers.
You don’t have to be super fear based or manipulative. You can have fun and be principled with your patients. Most people don’t master the fundamentals, they just want the shortcut. When you “sell” them on care using fear, those patients end up getting buyers remorse.
SCT Coach Dr. FJ talks about the Rhino Exam that will prove your authority and unique value #DDNP
Success is not a huge secret.
You have to master the fundamentals. You gotta be able to do them when the office is packed without thinking – it’s just a reflex that brings you massive results. It’s what you can do under pressure that matters. We want to change the profession so that we have more Principled, Successful Chiropractors, only then can we make REAL CHANGE TOGETHER. Listen to these free Rhino University tips that WILL. MAKE. A. DIFFERENCE.
The biggest mistake made during the exam is that they’re SILENT.
The most common thing that untrained Chiropractors come to us with is that they talk the whole consult. They’re trying to educate people, which is good, but it’s all about “ME” – “Let me talking to you about the subluxation,” “let me tell you about the adjustment, “let me…”
The Rhino Consultation. This is the key to getting New Patients, getting your marketing dialed in and doing your first and 2nd visit properly. The Consultation at the very least gives the opportunity and time to set up a care plan so you can help them.
This ROF and Consult is what allowed me to grow to 200 new patients in only 14 weeks and continue growing. It’s so important to know how to do this because this is where you start to grow relationships with your patients!
So if you’ve done a lot of other programs, take a shower, get the slime off of you – this is going to be totally ethical, you won’t have to give up your integrity, your sincerity or your honor to have a successful practice. You do it the right way, by building relations, by caring, by getting interested in your people, by being totally transparent and by delivering amazing results - and then you don’t have to sacrifice who you are, you can still go home and look in the mirror and feel good about who you are and what you’re doing!
