Why Rich People Are The Worst Leads for Cash Practice
About a decade ago, someone said to me you don't want rich people in your cash practice. That made no sense. Then I started paying close attention and realized the person was spot on. People think I need to open a cash practice in a wealthy area. You will go broke! They will live in severe chronic pain not being able to sleep to use their insurance to save money. They complain about the price but drive up in a $150,000 car and own 2 homes. There are actually two types of wealthy people. The ones I just described and then entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs are great leads and think totally different. Their time is money. If they can't go on a trip to meet a client, or get on the golf course they lose money. If they can't play with their kids it is priceless to them. If they pay for 10 sessions up front and use 7 they say keep the money. I didn't pay to spend time with you, I paid for the result. To be successful in cash practice your target is middle class. You are wasting money targeting wealthy neighborhoods. I literally told my marketing company years ago to exclude people over a certain income level, I am wasting money marketing to them! Comment "Hybrid" if you want more information on how I make $100,000 a month while working 20 hrs a week in my cash based clinic

@Maria Anjoline Lopez-Rullamas SI can cause LE weakness. It’s a little known side effect of SI
I’m Sorry I Don’t Want You in My Program. Here’s why....
If you are in a geographical region where I have already trained someone to open and run a Whelton Methods® Hybrid Clinical & Cash Based Clinic, and you want to join my mentorship, I’m going to tell you no. Why? Because I’m not going to train someone to compete against one of my own students. My mission is to place highly specialized chronic pain clinics in geographical regions across the country so patients who have failed everything know there is finally someone who understands what’s wrong with them and has an exceptional success rate helping them. I talk to PTs and DCs every week who are in traditional cash based coaching programs, yet they’re making the same as, or sometimes less than, they made working a regular job. At some point you have to make a decision. Do you want to keep following the traditional cash based clinic model? Or do you want to learn my Hybrid Clinical & Cash Based Business Model that built a 7 figure clinic working 20 hours a week? We don’t use sales techniques. We don’t do discovery calls. We don’t talk patients out of using their insurance. We don’t do workshops. Instead, I teach you elite clinical skills that create results and a marketing system that attracts chronic pain patients who have failed everything else. This isn’t a sales tactic. If your area is already taken, I will literally tell you you’re too late because I protect my students. I already have told people no. Comment “Hybrid” below if you are a PT or DC and have a minimum marketing budget of $1,500 per month (which many clinicians can earn working one day a week at Home Health or The Joint Chiropractic

@Maria Anjoline Lopez-Rullamas EVERYTHING is MINDSET!
Workshops are a Waste of Time for Cash PT/DCs Here’s Why…
🚨 STOP wasting your time doing workshops for your cash-based PT/DC practice. 🚨 You’ve been taught to: ❌ Talk patients out of using insurance. ❌ Spend nights and weekends doing workshops hoping someone books. ❌ Use high-pressure sales tactics to close patients. I teach my in my 7 Figure 20hr/Wk Hybrid Clinical & Cash-Based Clinic for students to STOP doing all of that! “Well Ryan… then how do you get patients?” Years ago, I discovered what I call the “Orthopedic Trail of Tears” These are people who have been in pain for years, sometimes decades. They’ve spent $20,000 to well over $120,000 chasing answers. They’ve seen countless PTs, chiropractors, and insert name of specialist. Most have completely given up hope. I figured out: ✅ How to clinically identify what’s actually causing their pain when they come in ✅ How to get them relief on the first visit. ✅ How to reach them with social media ads that make them say… “Finally… someone understands what’s been happening to me I have to go see this guy.” My ads intentionally go up to 2–3 hour drive from my clinic, and my schedule stays full. I don’t teach people how to become another general PT or chiropractor, these patients want a super specialist in chronic pain, that’s what I teach clinicians to be! When patients see you are the expert in THEIR condition via social media marketing… Patients chase you. You don’t chase them. Mentorship Requirements: ✔️ Licensed PT or DC ✔️ Minimum marketing budget of $1,500/month (You can earn that doing home health PT or working at The Joint 1 day a month while building your practice.) 👇 Comment “HYBRID” below and I’ll personally DM you more information about my mentorship program. Few Spots Left!

My Post SI Joint Fusion Pain/Weakness Pt. Status Update!
I posted about a patient that I evaluated several weeks ago. She had L SI joint fusion and after had hip and L LE pain with a profound weakness she did not have before the fusion. When I ask her to go from sitting to supine she has to place her hand under her leg and physically lift it up as she is so weak, like a stroke patient. When I asked her to do side lying adduction per my SI protocol she could barely do one rep and could only raise her leg a few inches. I was like crap! I don't know what happened to her but this isn't good! Well, fast forward 5 weeks, shockingly, her leg pain is almost gone, back pain as well but still has hip pain that if I have her perform a standing ball squeeze she can relieve it by firing her adductor and gapping open the outflares. She was feeling so good she went out to garden and flared it up. I told her to not do anything but this is a common trap patients fall into. I was concerned about this patient and this profound weakness but sometimes they shock you!
