For independent chiropractic practices

Get more new chiropractic patients and keep your practice independent.

You run the practice. We run the work around it. Radi8 is the operations partner for independent chiropractors. We set up and look after the work that pulls you away from the table: how patients find you online, your reviews and the routine admin. You stay the owner and the doctor.

Independent chiropractors: one partner for the work it takes to grow a chiropractic practice

Just opened, or been here for years. The pressure is different.

Most practices are a bit of both. We start with what matters most to you.

Opened in the last few years: Trained to adjust, not to run a business

The loan clock started before the schedule filled. Patients come to you directly, without a referral, so the practice has to be easy to find from day one. You are the doctor, the marketer and the front office at once. Student debt and startup costs run ahead of income in the first years.

Established practice: Staying independent while franchise clinics advertise down the street

You bill more every year and keep less. Reimbursement keeps slipping while costs rise. Payer paperwork and prior authorizations take time your team does not have. Low-price franchise clinics compete for the same patients who find a chiropractor on their own.

How to get more chiropractic patients, without doing it all yourself

These are services our team sets up and looks after for your practice. You see everything and approve anything that goes out under your name.

• Audit. See your practice the way patients do: A plain-language look at your Google listing, reviews, website and local search, and where new patients are slipping away.
• Friction. Clear what stops a patient choosing you: Wrong hours, missing services like sports or auto injury care, a listing that does not match your site. We find and fix the details that cost you the first visit.
• Automation. Routine work, drafted for your OK: Where we set it up for your practice, Olivia, our AI practice manager, drafts routine work like blog posts and other content for your team. Nothing is published, sent to patients or changed in your systems without your approval.
• Growth. Found by the patients near you: Your listing, reviews and local search kept current month after month, so patients find accurate, current details when they look.

A partner that does the work, not another login.

We look first: we review your practice as a new patient sees it and walk you through what we find. We set it up: we start with the biggest gap and take on the work you choose, on top of the systems you already use. You stay the owner: you approve what goes out, see what changed every month, and decide what we take on next.
