<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/i><\/i><\/span>The history of Thrive Chiropractic<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>In 2006 Iain and Kelly Guest moved to the Kapiti Coast to be closer to Iain\u2019s parents and enjoy a more relaxed lifestyle. Both highly qualified, they had been running Vital Chiropractic in Auckland.<\/p>\nIain and Kelly wanted to create a practice where everyone could enjoy the benefits by combining the best of traditional chiropractic and modern analysis technology.<\/p>\n
Armed with their vision they restored a 1950\u2019s house into a modern chiropractic office in eight weeks flat – and they did it on schedule, with a lot of help.<\/p>\n
Opening their doors on the 2nd October 2006, Thrive Chiropractic provides spinal health, wellness, and health education from pregnancy and new born babies through to elder care.<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/i><\/i><\/span>What makes Thrive Chiropractic different?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>Thrive Chiropractic provides quality care for the whole family by applying their knowledge and skills to enable clients to reach optimal health through the detection, analysis, and correction of spinal misalignments.<\/p>\nTheir main point of difference is the attention to detail, and the education and empowerment of clients to understand the significance of their spine and its relationship to overall health. This shows upmost in their professionalism from first to last appointment.<\/p>\n
This caring attitude coupled with their extensive training shows in their keeping up-to-date procedures and manuals defining every aspect of their operation \u2013 reassurance that you are in safe, expert hands.<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/i><\/i><\/span>Perseverance: How Thrive Chiropractic managed the growing pains<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>Delays in locating a suitable premises meant an eight-week time frame to restore the 1950\u2019s house into modern, highly equipped practice rooms.<\/p>\nIain and Kelly needed to restore a tired building into a modern attractive premises, build a car park, install an office and consulting rooms and an x-ray facility while hiring and training staff.
\nDespite numerous council hold-ups and having only 2 weeks of tradesman time available, they opened on time and ready to go.<\/p>\n
Next was marketing the new business: \u201cWellness and maintenance spinal health care is a different perspective to traditional healthcare\u201d.<\/p>\n
As a new business in the area, they met resistance from established medical referral networks. This meant that all of their business had to be generated through external marketing activity.<\/p>\n
They needed those first customers to be so impressed that they referred others. And it worked.<\/p>\n
Through external marketing they built a customer base that now gives them over 68% of their new business.<\/p>\n
And to ensure those interested people can find out more about them they used Web Genius to grow their website into the first port of call for enquiries.<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
