In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Rj Rivera, a chiropractic physician, to dive into his journey as both a chiropractor and coach. We talk about the importance of building professional networks, creating referral systems, and why collaboration across healthcare disciplines matters.
Dr. Rivera shares how understanding patient stories and lifestyle factors can completely change the way we approach care. We also touch on the importance of self-care for healthcare professionals, the role of community engagement, and how authenticity plays into both marketing and patient relationships.
One of the highlights of our conversation is Dr. Rivera’s introduction to Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS). He breaks down the principles of intra-abdominal pressure and joint centration, and explains how these foundational tools shape his approach to restoring function and improving movement.
