NYK ADJUSTable Websites Big Hit !

Last month Now You Know introduced the "ADJUSTable Website". This is the most modern design in chiropractic websites.  This new design features a growing number of new changeable themes that NYK doctors can change instantly themselves simply by the click of a mouse!  As you can imagine, hundreds of our current subscribers have already requested this free upgrade in their service. We are doing the conversions as quickly as possible.  New subscribers to NYK will automatically start out with the new ADJUSTable website design and receive all the new features and benefits that are included.

In addition to the ability to change the website theme instantly, these new ADJUSTable websites also incorporate many other new features including:

  • Search Engine Optimization - These new non-frame designed themes optimize the search engines ability to find your website easier than ever before.  But we go one step further, we allow you the ability to add your own key words and website title and description! 
  • Articles on front page - Each time someone visits your website a new set of articles appears on the front page.  This keeps your home page looking new and fresh, with new content, every time someone returns.
  • Dynamic Flash headers - Watch as the name of your office appears amidst a background that is changing.  These headers add class and movement to your website.
  • Office hours and new patient center on front page - Make it easy for new and current practice members to find out the basic information they need fast!
  • New subluxation pages - Much of our content has now been updated with new interactive graphics.  See below for more highlights. 

Our new NYK ADJUSTable Websites offer you an unprecedented amount of control over features and content in your website.  To learn more and see some samples please go to our website at www.nowyouknow.net.

What Chiropractic Meetings Are On Your List?

Everyone in chiropractic goes to something.  Most chiropractors go to license renewal or some type of continuing education programs in order to get the credits needed for license renewal.  Some of us go to programs that may not offer credit for license renewal and some go to certain technique programs for the specific type of technique they utilize in their practice.

Then there are the meetings that we go to for ourselves.  For me these are usually the ones I have the most fun at, feel the most in my heart, and grow the most personally.  I do enjoy going to ICA events like the Pediatrics' program, and the Sports & Fitness symposium, (the Arnold).  Of course, I attended Philosophy on the Farm (which was great - more on this in an upcoming Info Age).

I also attend a lot of really good programs in states where we participate as either a vendor or speaker.  I enjoy the time I get to spend with the doctors in these states.  But if it were not for Now You Know, I probably would never get to go to many other state programs.

But for me, I have a list of three mainstays that I will continue to go to no matter what. These are in no particular order, but all of these represent a "home" for me in chiropractic.  I return to these every few months and look forward to the next events.  Here is my list of three:

Dynamic Essentials - I grew up in chiropractic at DE listening to Dr. Sid.  It has been a mainstay for me and I do not see my future in chiropractic without it. The next DE meeting is October 30 - Nov 2, 2008. www.lifede.com

New Beginnings - For about a decade now, I have been a regular at New Beginnings.  I have found a family of friends that I have grown closer to than many members of my actual family. The philosophy spirit and love at these meetings is something I cherish. The next New Beginnings meeting is September 25 - 28, 2008.
www.nbchiro.com

Get The Big Idea - For an experience that seems to bring me closer to God, GTBI does it for me. Even if Dr. Rob Schiffman were not one of my closest friends on earth, I'd still want to go to these meetings to learn and become a better servant.  It is hard to describe these meetings to someone who has not been there, but they are special. NOTE: The next GTBI program was mistakenly NOT listed in The Chiropractic Journal. The next program is actually August 22-23 in St. Louis at the Westin. You can get more details on their website at: www.getthebigidea.com.

No matter if you go to these particular meetings or not, I highly recommend that you have some sort of regular connection to like minded chiropractors' who continue to help you grow and learn. So I guess we come down to the question, "What Chiropractic meetings are on your list?"

This new storefront carries a wide variety of products and supplies for your office and your home.  These products complement the current ICA Store offerings, including adjusting tables, chiropractic office supplies, mattresses, and over 500 other fitness and health products.  Additionally, new products are being added on a regular basis.  Just like the ICA Store, all of these products are for sale at a member discount, and can save you a considerable amount of money.

In addition, when you order a product from the Chiropractic Depot on the ICA website, a portion of the sale automatically goes to the ICA.  So, in essence, you are helping the ICA every time you save money by purchasing items on the professional version of the ICA’s Chiropractic Depot.

We invite you to shop the ICA website at www.chiropractic.org and click on the icons on the left side of our website for the ICA Store and the Chiropractic Depot.  Start saving today while helping ICA and Chiropractic.
