WHAT IS A LOCUM?
A locum is a person who temporarily fulfills the duties of another.
They perform their duties on a transient basis.

WHY HIRE A LOCUM?

1. You earn income while away.
Income continues to get the care they need. Patients get better
results as their treatment plans stay consistent. This also prevents
the loss of patients when your office would otherwise be closed.

2. Patients continue to be cared for.
Patients continues to get the care they need. Patients get better
results as their treatment plans stay consistent. This also prevents
the loss of patients when your office would otherwise be closed.

3. Your practice stays open as usual.
Patients appreciate that they can depend on your office to be open
when they need chiropractic care. New patients are seen and scheduled
for care.

4. You can relax on your vacation.
Patients are seen while you are away, reducing congestion for that
dreaded week back in the office. You can also rest assured that you
are not losing patients because the office remains open.

WHAT I BRING TO YOUR PRACTICE AS A LOCUM

Experience
Having dedicated the last year of my practice to serving a high
volume downtown clinic, I have successfully treated thousands of
patients using several adjusting techniques. I am very comfortable
doing new patient exams and diagnosis, including x-ray, posture
evaluation and nervous system scans.

I am comfortable and have experience in a variety of practice settings
ranging from family wellness, pain focus clinics, pre & post natal care,
and orthopedic sports medicine.

Skillset
I am a skilled adjuster familiar with Diversified, Upper Cervical (Blair),
Torque Release, Motion Palpation, Drop, and Instrument Techniques
(included Activator, Integrator, Pro-Adjuster, and Impulse).

My adjusting skills can be complimented by full body soft tissue release
therapy.

Personality
I pride myself on my ability to establish a rapport with patients quickly
and consistently.

I am a very fast learner and am capable and willing to learn new
techniques or variations of old ones.
