The fastest-growing chiropractic franchise has a simple business model that attracts entrepreneurs with no prior medical background

The Joint, the nation’s fastest-growing chiropractic franchise, recently celebrated 400 locations open across the country. That milestone would have been unthinkable if the business model was designed for only those with experience in owning and operating chiropractic clinics. While it is true that chiropractors are franchising with The Joint in large numbers, their reason is the same as any other entrepreneur’s: the business model is easy to understand.

Walk into one of The Joint’s more than 400 clinics in the United States, and you will see a simple layout: one person who welcomes patients, and one or two doctors treating patients expertly and efficiently. By only performing spinal alignments conducted by hand, doctors who work for The Joint can see many more patients each day than a traditional chiropractic clinic.

This is strategic, as The Joint is a cash-model business that requires no appointments and no insurance. Clinics are placed in highly-visible retail settings next to supermarkets, coffee shops and restaurants, and they are open nights and weekends. The Joint is not only making chiropractic care more accessible to consumers, it also is making owning a chiropractic clinic more accessible to entrepreneurs.

Benefits of operating a chiropractic franchise with The Joint

An excellent example is Paul Trindel, who was a multi-unit owner of Cold Stone Creamery before becoming a multi-unit franchisee with The Joint and regional developer for clinics in North Carolina and Tennessee.

“The Joint is far simpler to open and manage than a food business,” Trindel says. “I often joke that it causes a lot less brain damage. At my ice cream businesses, I’m dealing with teenagers, who can be flaky, late and unprofessional. At The Joint, it’s completely the opposite. Your staff shares the same purpose you do, which is to help people get the care they need.”

Founded in 1999, The Joint is leading the way in making chiropractic care an essential and affordable part of health and wellness for millions of people seeking relief from back, neck and joint pain. As a result, The Joint can treat many more patients than a traditional chiropractic clinic by a large margin. According to the brand’s most recent Franchise Disclosure Document, The Joint reported weekly patient visits that were 152 percent higher than those to individually-owned clinics.

For Robb Quinlan, who was a professional baseball player with the Los Angeles Angels before becoming the owner of four franchise clinics with The Joint in Minneapolis, Minnesota, The Joint is a way to get into business that serves a noble purpose in the community.

“When I discovered The Joint, and I saw how they were making chiropractic care more accessible, more affordable and convenient for people, I knew that I wanted to become a franchisee. I recognized that The Joint is the future of the chiropractic industry,” Quinlan says. “The Joint is a great business for entrepreneurs who want to make a difference.”

Franchising highlights multi-unit owner’s success with fastest-growing chiropractic franchise in new article

It’s no secret that many professional athletes find success in business after they hang up their jerseys for the last time. The leadership skills and the sense of collaboration that is learned on the field often translate into savvy business acumen that allows former professional athletes to thrive and prosper. In a new article published by Franchising, Robb Quinlan is highlighted as an example of how a professional athlete can become successful in business, notably for his latest venture with The Joint Chiropractic.

Quinlan, who now owns four clinics with The Joint and also serves as the Regional Developer for Minnesota, was a star infielder with the Los Angeles Angels for eight years. When a major injury in 2004 occurred, the process of recovery brought him to what would become his second passion: chiropractic care.

How chiropractic care changed Robb Quinlan’s life

“I tore my oblique in August of 2004,” Quinlan says in the article. “That ended my season and put my neck and spine out of alignment. When I was home during the offseason, I found a chiropractor. It helped tremendously with my rehabilitation.”

The article points out that after Quinlan retired from baseball in 2011, his belief in chiropractic care was so strong that, “when he discovered The Joint Chiropractic, he was sold.”

Quinlan is now not only a multi-unit franchisee with The Joint, he is also serving to fuel the brand’s growth in Minnesota in his role as Area Developer. Since he assumed that role, he has helped to expand The Joint in the state by a total of eight locations so far.

“People come in complaining about back pain they’ve had for years,” Quinlan says in the article. “They see what we have to offer, and in a few visits they see results.”
