Mastering Table Talk: The Secret to Patient Retention in Chiropractic Care
Manage episode 486801615 series 2884589
In this episode, we explore:
✅ Why great patient starts still lead to drop-offs
✅ The purpose and power of effective Table Talk
✅ Common communication pitfalls that break patient trust
✅ Scripts and phrases that reinforce confidence and retention
✅ How to link adjustments directly to patient goals
✅ Training tips for associates and building a reproducible system
✅ Dr. Noel Lloyd’s “Battle for the Brain” approach to communication
✅ How to shift patient mindset from pain relief to wellness lifestyle
Notable takeaways:
“I expected that” – A phrase to reinforce confidence and normal healing.
“Healing happens between visits” – Reframing patient expectations.
“Touch and Tell” – Connect the adjustment to what the patient feels, in real-time.
Use “chunks” of time (like 4-week blocks) to make care plans feel more manageable.
Don’t waste your prime minutes on fluff—structure matters.
