During the month of June, in honor of Teacher’s Day, contact schools and offer to speak on stress management or peak performance to teachers, offer complimentary massages if you have a therapist working with you in your practice, if not ask a local therapist to help you.

In honor of Pecan Pie Day, host a bake off in your office and ask patients to bring in their favorite recipe and baked pecan pie.  Have the staff and doctors judge and give out first, second and third place prizes!

In honor of Parent’s Day, offer all parents an opportunity to bring in a friend that is a parent and offer complimentary scans to educate others about their spines and chiropractic. Make it fun and allow patients that refer in others to enter a raffle and give away a healthy prize.  Ask a local health club for a membership for six months or a local restaurant to donate a gift certificate for a lunch and or dinner.
