Depression-Proofing Your Chiropractic Career: How to Keep Your Business and Family Safe

– by Dr. John Reizer

Sherman associate professor and best selling chiropractic author John Reizer, D.C., has written and published his sixth book on the subject of chiropractic and his ninth book overall. Reizer, a 1986 magna cum laude graduate of Sherman College, says his latest book is a timely publication about the downturn in our nation’s economy and how this scenario will likely impact the chiropractic profession.

Reizer says, “The books I have written, over the years, convey my personal feelings about important topics that directly or indirectly affect chiropractors and laypersons. My books do not, on the other hand, express the opinions or views of any organizations or institutions that I am affiliated with. I believe that this latest work is the most important material I have produced to date. The subjects I have written about, in this particular book, are timely, controversial, eye-opening and very misunderstood by chiropractors as well as by most people in the general population.”

Reizer’s new book, “Depression-Proofing Your Chiropractic Career: How to Keep Your Business and Family Safe,” touches on a wide variety of subjects and ultimately describes to readers how a global conspiracy has been placed into motion in an effort to manipulate the world’s economy.

Reizer says, “There are very difficult economic times looming on our horizon and chiropractors along with other professionals will have to be prudent when making business decisions from this point forward. The opportunities for success will still be possible but business owners will need to become flexible in their thinking and ready to adapt to regularly changing economic conditions in the coming months and years.”

John Reizer, D.C., is the best selling author of numerous chiropractic books. He has been practicing chiropractic for more than 20 years. He maintains a private practice in Landrum, SC.

Reviews:

“I teach chiropractic Check Amazon.com for best price at a well-known chiropractic college and have not seen a better compendium of technique summaries in print anywhere. This book offers an intelligent and succinct look at the most popular and effective chiropractic analyses and corrective procedures used by the profession. For any health care provider or patient looking for more information on what their chrio is doing, this is THE place to look.”

“I am not aware of any book that covers the same subject matter. As the authors state from the outset, this book is not an advertisement for any of the Check Amazon.com for best price described in the book, but rather an honest attempt to describe them as they are. It covers the major Check Amazon.com for best price in chiropractic according to a common format, so that a patient, a chiropractic student, a chiropractor, or anyone else interested in chiropractic can figure out what it means to be treated using one technique as compared with another.

The writing is formal where it needs to be, but very casual and entertaining in places and in contexts where formality would have been more expected. For me, the best part of the book are the chapter introductions. There are anecdotes and personal observations that really make these Check Amazon.com for best price come alive, and give us a window into how this book came into being. Cooperstein and Gleberzon obviously love these Check Amazon.com for best price, even the ones where they could not contain their skepticism. It’s all chiropractic to them.

Clearly, as authors, teachers, and researchers, they are in the middle of everthing going on in chiropractic.”
