The fastest-growing chiropractic franchise celebrates multiple new openings as it aggressively expands across the U.S.

The Joint, the fastest-growing chiropractic franchise, is opening locations at a rapid clip in markets across the United States. Founded in 1999, The Joint is ushering in a new era for the $15 billion chiropractic industry by focusing on accessible and affordable care that is friendly to consumers without sacrificing the quality of care the franchise delivers. The Joint celebrated the milestone of opening the 400th location in January.

“There is no doubt that The Joint is really connecting with entrepreneurs and chiropractors who are seeking a proven business model that can dramatically improve lives,” says Eric Simon, Vice President of Franchise Sales & Development with The Joint. “We’re incredibly proud that our franchise owners continue to be more profitable and treat more people than traditional chiropractic clinics by a large margin, and our continued nationwide growth is a reflection of both the profit potential of this business and our ability to connect with consumers in growing numbers. For entrepreneurs, The Joint is a brand that you invest in if you want to make an impact and earn a great living at the same time.”

Where is The Joint expanding?

Here is a rundown of everywhere The Joint has recently announced openings across the country:

• Two new franchise clinics in Atlanta, Georgia. This brings the total franchise clinics in the Atlanta metropolitan area to 31 locations.
• One new franchise in Cleveland, Ohio. This is The Joint’s first franchise clinic in Northeast Ohio and the sixth total in the Buckeye State.
• One new franchise clinic in Wichita, Kansas. This is the second location in the city’s market.

How an entrepreneur went from owning ice cream shops to becoming
the Regional Developer of Tennessee with the fastest-growing chiropractic franchise

How does an entrepreneur go from owning multiple ice cream shops to owning multiple chiropractic clinics? For Chad Eads, a multi-unit franchisee with The Joint, the answer is simpler than you may think: a savvy entrepreneur goes after a good opportunity when it comes along.

Based in Asheville, North Carolina, Chad Eads began his career as an entrepreneur with the Cold Stone Creamery franchise. The ice cream franchise has done enormously well for Eads, who owns six Cold Stone Creamery locations from Asheville to Southern Georgia. When Paul Trindle, another Cold Stone Creamery franchise owner, mentioned that he was investing in a new chiropractic franchise, Eads was immediately interested.

“Asheville is a town that is very focused on health and wellness, and alternative medicine is mainstream here,” Eads says. “When Paul introduced me to the concept, and he showed me how simple it was to own and operate the business, it was a no-brainer. I knew that I was going to invest in this business and open a clinic in Asheville.”

The secret to The Joint’s ongoing success is that the business model is extremely simple to understand. This is by design. Unlike traditional chiropractic clinics, The Joint places its locations in popular destinations — next to retail stores, restaurants and supermarkets. The Joint doesn’t accept insurance, which also does away with the need to chase insurance companies for payment. Instead, The Joint encourages walk-in appointments and offers a gym-like membership model. Most importantly, patients can be treated in 15 minutes or less because The Joint only offers one service: spinal adjustments performed by hand.

“The Joint’s business model is a breeze compared to my ice cream businesses,” Eads says. “In The Joint, your small staff is made up of professionals who are completely aligned in the mission to provide the best customer service and the best treatment for the patient. In my ice cream business, I often joke that it causes brain damage, because you’re dealing with teenagers who show up late, you’re dealing with food and inventory. Compared to that, The Joint is incredibly easy to own.”

As the owner of multiple clinics with The Joint, Eads experiences what so many of the brand’s franchise owners experience on a month-to-month basis: The Joint is far more profitable than a traditional chiropractic clinic. According to The Joint’s most recent Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), the 253 franchise clinics open in 2016 experienced nearly 28 percent growth in average gross sales from 2015, bringing the number to $320,765.

“Every month in business is better than the month before,” Eads says. “If there is a ceiling, we have not hit it yet. The Joint is really making access to chiropractic care more affordable and more accessible than ever before, and we’ve experienced this at our clinics in Asheville.”

In order to help more entrepreneurs find success with The Joint, Eads and Trindle forged a partnership to become the new Regional Developers for The Joint in Tennessee. Eads and Trindles’ shared knowledge of the brand’s business model, and their active ownership in multiple clinics, as well as proximity to Tennessee, makes them ideally suited to grow The Joint in the Volunteer State.

“The amount of wide open territory in Tennessee is an enormous opportunity for entrepreneurs who are passionate about health and wellness,” Eads says. “This business not only has the potential to yield financial rewards, an owner can take pride in the knowledge that their business is actively, meaningfully impacting people in their community who are desperate to find relief from ongoing pain. It is a powerful business to be a part of, and the level of interest we’re experiencing from entrepreneurs in Tennessee is evident of the fact that The Joint will be growing rapidly in the state for years to come.”

The fastest-growing chiropractic franchise ranks high on prestigious annual franchise list that measures brands based on growth

Hot on the heels of The Joint’s highest-ever ranking on Entrepreneur magazine’s prestigious annual Franchise 500 list, the fastest growing chiropractic franchise was ranked as No. 9 on Franchise Times’ annual Fast & Serious list.

The list seeks to rank the franchise opportunities that are not only rapidly growing but also growing smartly and effectively. This couldn’t apply more to The Joint, as the magazine points out that since 2014, the chiropractic franchise, “has seen 50 percent unit growth since 2014, finishing 2016 with 370 locations.” Franchise Times points that this tremendous growth resulted in the brand’s climb up seven spots from its position on last year’s list.

Peter Holt, CEO of The Joint, told Franchise Times that the key ingredient for franchise growth is transparency:

“A concept will ‘never be stronger than the franchisees that are brought into your network, so an effective franchise recruitment program is key,’ ” Holt says to Franchise Times. “In your sales process, you need to assure that you are providing the key information that a franchise prospect must know about you, and that you have a process in place to capture key information about the potential franchisee as well”.

Franchise Times praises The Joint’s ability to utilize regional developers to connect entrepreneurs with The Joint in markets across the country.

“Helping to accelerate that growth, The Joint reinstated a regional developer model in which it sells the rights to open a minimum number of clinics in a defined territory and the regional developer in turn helps identify and qualify potential new franchisees in that territory and assists with providing field training, clinic opening and ongoing support,” the publication reports. “This past year The Joint expanded to include eight regional developer territories, with a combined commitment to open a minimum of 211 units in their geographic areas over the next 10 years.”

While The Joint is transforming the chiropractic industry by making chiropractic care more accessible and affordable than ever before, the brand’s business model is likewise transformative by opening up chiropractic business ownership to entrepreneurs without any experience in the field. Business savvy entrepreneurs can hire chiropractors to manage the chiropractic care and the steady stream of patients that the business model allows for, while the owner gets to focus on the business itself.

Getting this message out to the entrepreneur community is high on the list of goals for The Joint’s executive team going forward.

“We are trying to overcome this challenge in our franchise recruitment messaging,” Holt says to Franchise Times. “We have also added complete P&L information to our Item 19 in our FDD and have created a stand-alone franchise website to educate potential franchisees so they understand that this model has strong unit economics and is right for entrepreneurs and doctors of chiropractic alike.”

The fastest-growing chiropractic franchise is rapidly expanding
across the country

The Joint continues to live up to its standing as the fastest-growing chiropractic franchise in the nation with the announcement of multiple new openings. The new franchise clinics are open in Weston, Florida, as well as in the two Texas cities of Austin and San Antonio.

The Joint also announced that expansion into Texas continues with four new clinics in development for the Houston market. Growth beyond the Lonestar State remains strong as well, with four new clinics planned for Cleveland, Ohio.

“We are extremely excited about the continued momentum The Joint is experiencing in the early months of 2018,” says Eric Simon, Vice President of Franchise Sales and Development with The Joint. “Our regional developers have been extremely effective in connecting entrepreneurs and chiropractors with our franchise opportunity. Given that so many millions of people are in need of affordable and high-quality chiropractic care, we expect our growth will continue to be strong as the year moves forward.”

Since 1999, The Joint has grown to 400 locations open across the United States. This rapid development is the direct result of the brand’s transformative approach to chiropractic care. The Joint places its clinics next to supermarkets, restaurants and coffee shops, and its unique gym-like membership model makes chiropractic care more affordable and accessible, while doing away with the need for insurance. As a result, The Joint is both more profitable and sees more patients than a traditional chiropractic clinic on average, according to our most recent Franchise Disclosure Document.

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 translates 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.

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.

“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.”

The fastest-growing chiropractic franchise announces new Regional Developers to spearhead growth in the Volunteer State

The Joint, the nation’s fastest-growing chiropractic franchise, recently announced aggressive expansion plans for Tennessee. With plans to open multiple locations across the state in the coming years, The Joint is excited to announce veteran franchisees Chad Eades and Paul Trindle as the new Regional Developers for Tennessee.

Trindle and Eades are multi-unit franchisees with The Joint, and the longtime friends are the ideal ambassadors to onboard new entrepreneurs. Their success in managing multiple clinics, despite not having prior experience in the chiropractic industry, is a testament to the ease and simplicity of the brand’s business model. Their intimate knowledge of how to run and grow profitable clinics will be a vital resource for new franchisees in Tennessee.

“We’re extremely excited to help entrepreneurs in Tennessee find success with The Joint,” Trindle says. “The opportunity is simply enormous. Last month, our combined region of North Carolina and Tennessee performed over 34,000 adjustments, which just shows you how many people are in need of affordable and accessible chiropractic care. We only have seven clinics open in Tennessee, and the level of interest we’re experiencing now from entrepreneurs is a clear indicator that we’ve barely scratched the surface in the market.”

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. Rapid expansion is proof that The Joint is meeting an enormous need in communities across the country. In the past few years, The Joint has grown consistently and now has more than 400 locations open or in development across the United States.

The new Regional Developers recently took a road trip across Tennessee to survey the landscape and explore the markets where The Joint can expand its existing footprint, as well as establish a presence.

“We put 1,500 miles on the car in a week and a half,” Eades says. “There are so many opportunities to capitalize on the growing demand for chiropractic across the entire state. It’s hard to believe that we do not have clinics open in Knoxville, Chattanooga and Bristol. In Nashville, where we have four clinics open, and Memphis, where we have three, there is still ample opportunity for existing franchisees to expand their footprint. We’re excited to help new and existing franchisees make a real difference in people’s lives, while also improving the quality of their own lives by opening new franchise clinics for The Joint.

The fastest-growing chiropractic franchise is providing an opportunity for chiropractors who want an easier business model

It’s time for the residents of Napa Valley, California to crack open the bubbly in wine country. The Joint, the fastest-growing chiropractic franchise in the nation, recently announced plans to open a new clinic in the market.

The North Bay Business Journal broke the news of the new clinic opening in Napa Valley in an article titled, “ Chiropractic clinic chain The Joint eyes Napa, Santa Rosa for franchise growth.” The esteemed local business publication reports correctly that while The Joint has 74 clinics in California, more than half are in Southern California. This means that the larger San Francisco-metropolitan-area and Northern California are prime markets for savvy entrepreneurs and chiropractors who desire an easier business model on which to capitalize.

Since 1999, The Joint has grown to 400 locations open across the United States. This rapid development is the direct result of our transformative approach to chiropractic care, which places our clinics next to supermarkets, restaurants and coffee shops. Our membership model does away with the need for insurance, which makes our services more accessible and affordable to the millions of people who need chiropractic care to alleviate back and neck pain. The number of people who do need chiropractic care continues to grow at a rapid clip, with The North Bay Business Journal reporting that 37 million people seek chiropractic care annually, and of that number, The Joint treats more than four million people each year.

“Right now, we have the largest umbrella of chiropractic clinics in the world, but we’re only just getting started,” says Peter Holt, CEO of The Joint. “There’s been a shift toward convenience in the healthcare industry and that’s something we’ve stood for since day one.”

The article highlights the success of Bradley N. Moody, a franchisee with The Joint who operates a clinic in Vacaville, a growing community close to the Napa Valley region. Moody operated a traditional clinic for over 25 years, and chose The Joint because, like so many of our franchisees, he desired a business model that was easier to run than a traditional clinic.

“Not having to deal with insurance was the main thing. It was a big headache,” Moody says in the article. “The reduction in overhead is tremendous. Dealing with insurance is very expensive. Now, I pass the savings on to my patients.”

The Joint treats far more patients than a traditional chiropractic clinic could even conceive of helping. The North Bay Business Journal reports that Moody treats a lot more patients per day than he ever did in his traditional clinic:

“Whereas he saw about 40 per day in private practice, at The Joint, with another part-time chiropractor, he sees 60 to 70 per day,” The North Bay Business Journal reports in the article. “Routine treatments last between five and 10 minutes.”

Moody’s success in seeing more patients is the norm across the entirety of our franchise network. Our most recent Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) reveals just how much more successful The Joint is at bringing new customers into the fold of chiropractic care. Our average weekly visit count grew close to 260 in 2016, and new customer visits were up in double digits. The Joint reported weekly patient visits was 152 percent higher than individually-owned clinics.

The fastest-growing chiropractic franchise is awarded high ranking on prestigious annual list

The Joint enters the New Year with our highest ever ranking on Entrepreneur magazine’s prestigious annual Franchise 500 list. Coming in at No. 109, our high rank is a testament to our revolutionary business model that is transforming the way chiropractic care is delivered in the U.S.

Widely regarded as the preeminent list of the best franchise systems in which to invest, Entrepreneur analyzed more than 1,000 franchise systems to determine this year’s Franchise 500. Franchise systems are measured on myriad factors ranging from brand equity, franchisee support, growth potential and more to determine where they chart on the list. On all of these metrics, The Joint makes a strong case for savvy entrepreneurs who desire to pursue business ownership that directly impacts people’s lives, as well as for chiropractors who desire an easier and more profitable business model than a traditional clinic.

“We couldn’t be more honored to be ranked so high on this year’s Franchise 500 list,” says Eric Simon, Vice President of Franchise Sales & Development with The Joint. “This is a transformative business in two ways: The Joint has completely disrupted the way chiropractic care is delivered by making it more affordable and more convenient for consumers, and The Joint is a business model with high-profit potential while providing entrepreneurs with a chance to provide a meaningful service in their community. This is why The Joint is the fastest growing chiropractic franchise in the nation, and why we’re going to continue to grow well into the future.”

Why is The Joint Chiropractic a best-bet investment in 2018?

Founded in 1999, The Joint is leading the way in making chiropractic care an essential and affordable part of health and wellness for the millions of people seeking relief from back, neck and joint pain. By placing our clinics in retail settings, next to busy supermarkets, coffee shops and family restaurants, The Joint continually seeks to change the way chiropractic is delivered: No appointments, no insurance, no hassle.

The Joint is easy to operate and boasts a proven business model that is uncommon in the
$3 trillion healthcare industry. Our membership model eliminates the need for insurance while providing our franchise owners with a recurring revenue stream that helps to maximize profitability and potentially hasten their return on investment. As a result, The Joint treats far more patients than a traditional chiropractic clinic could even conceive of helping. Our most recent Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) reveals just how much more successful The Joint is at bringing new customers into the fold of chiropractic care. Our average weekly visit count grew close to 260 in 2016, and new customer visits were up in double digits. The Joint reported weekly patient visits were 152 percent higher than individually-owned clinics.

This ability to help more people with their ongoing neck and back pain issues translates into a more profitable business model than traditional clinics. Our most recent FDD reports double-digit growth in annual gross sales across our entire franchise network. The 253 franchise clinics open in 2016 experienced a nearly 28 percent growth in average gross sales from 2015, bringing this year’s number to $320,765. In comparison to average gross sales reported by independently operated, traditional clinics, The Joint reported average gross sales totaling nearly $60,000 more.

The fastest-growing chiropractic franchise gives entrepreneurs a meaningful business to own by emphasizing convenient and affordable chiropractic care

Those suffering from back and neck pain know how hard it is to perform simple tasks in life. Before The Joint was founded in 1999, people were forced to either suffer through their pain or take time off of work to meet a scheduled appointment at a  traditional chiropractic clinic. That typically meant a costly and inconvenient experience.

When The Joint Chiropractic entered the market, chiropractic care was finally able to secure the place in mainstream culture it deserves. By placing our clinics in busy shopping centers, next to coffee shops and supermarkets, and by doing away the need for insurance through the creation of our membership model, The Joint also did away with the need to schedule appointments. This no-hassle approach to chiropractic care allows Americans in pain the luxury of being able to seek treatment when it’s convenient for them: on their lunch break from work, on the weekends or on the commute home.

Back pain is a tremendous problem, and it’s on the rise in the U.S. Goodbody reports that 8 out of 10 Americans will experience back pain at some point in their lives, and that 54% of Americans who experience back pain have professions or lifestyles which forces them to be sedentary. The costs are likewise astonishing. The American Chiropractic Association reports that Americans spend $50 billion on treating and managing back pain every year.

“It’s very clear how large the problem is when you walk into one of our clinics and see how many people are coming through our doors,” says Jeff McGinty, a multi-unit franchisee with The Joint in Atlanta, Georgia. “I love waking up and wondering how many lives we’re going to change today. It’s not a question of if we’re going to change lives – it’s a question of how many.”

The desire to help as many people as possible is at the core of our business model, and is the  reason why entrepreneurs and chiropractors alike are franchising with The Joint in large numbers every year. Even more importantly, the ease of our business model, combined with the drive to make a positive impact in communities nationwide, is encouraging our franchisees to reinvest in our brand by opening up more clinics.

“When you ask our franchisees if they would make their investment again, a large number of franchisees are answering that question by becoming multi-unit owners,” says Eric Simon, SVP of Franchise Development with The Joint. “This speaks volumes about the level of interest that Americans are showing in our business model. In order to facilitate this growth, we’ve stepped up our regional developers, adding nine across the country in key markets, in order to provide that local support in addition to the robust franchise support that our executive team provides on a daily basis to our franchisees.”

In addition to entering into a business that seeks to help people in pain, The Joint also showcases a bright picture of financial performance in our most recent Franchise Disclosure Document. The 253 franchise clinics open in 2016 experienced a nearly 28% growth in average gross sales from 2015, bringing this year’s number to $320,765. In comparison to average gross sales reported by independently-operated, traditional clinics, The Joint reported average gross sales totaling nearly $60,000 more.

“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.” says Robb Quinlan, owner of three franchise clinics with The Joint in Minneapolis, MN. “The Joint is a great business for entrepreneurs who want to make a difference.”

The Joint is a low-cost investment opportunity with high potential returns

The Joint was named to Entrepreneur magazine’s prestigious annual Franchise 500 list of the top franchise systems to invest in for 2017. It’s easy to see why, as Entrepreneur notes that The Joint grew by a phenomenal 40 franchise locations from 2015 to 2016, continuing a growth spurt that hasn’t slowed since The Joint began franchising in 2006.

With the total financial estimate to begin operations on a new chiropractic franchise ranging from $211,400 to $339,900, The Joint is a low-cost investment opportunity with potential for high returns.

The fastest-growing chiropractic franchise takes steps to foster further growth in the Sunshine State

The Joint Chiropractic is proud to announce that multi-unit franchisee Shane Weber and his team are the new area developers in Florida. Shane owns and manages four clinics in Atlanta, Georgia. The success of his businesses, combined with his passion for chiropractic care, make him ideally suited to grow The Joint in the Sunshine State.

“I’m tremendously excited to help expand The Joint in the untapped Florida market,” Shane says. “Florida has so much potential for entrepreneurs to thrive with The Joint. It’s completely underdeveloped, and based on demographics alone, Florida should be one of the most developed territories for The Joint.”

The Florida Legislature is working on changing the way traditional chiropractic care is regulated. As a result, the wild profitability that traditional chiropractic clinics have seen historically is in question. This also means that there will be many chiropractors looking to franchise with The Joint in the near future, so now is a great time to capitalize on the opportunity while the prime territories are still available.

The Joint Chiropractic is bringing the chiropractic industry to the mainstream

Shane knows the benefits of chiropractic care firsthand. After launching his first business at the age of 22, Shane became a public speaker, helping to build leadership and sales skills for corporate teams across the country. The constant traveling caused severe back pains that didn’t resolve until Shane saw a chiropractor. After this breakthrough, he knew he wanted to get off the road and build a business for himself. He started researching franchise opportunities.

When I discovered The Joint and looked at the simplicity of the business model, I knew that I had to invest in this business” said Shane. Chiropractic care has been so beneficial to m,e personally, and the fact that I have four clinics open in Atlanta proves that there is a tremendous need. The Joint allows people to get treated quickly and affordably, and as an owner, you not only get the financial rewards, but you’re helping people in your community.”

The Joint Chiropractic clinics are placed strategically next to community mainstays such as supermarkets, coffee shops, restaurants and hair salons. With no appointments, no insurance and no hassle, The Joint has grown to more than 350 locations across the United States. In the process, we have brought a misunderstood practice to where it has always belonged: an essential part of health and wellness.

With an exceptional support, initial and ongoing training, marketing support and an industry-leading ability to find premier locations in the markets we serve, The Joint provides entrepreneurs the tools and resources they need.

“It is my calling to help entrepreneurs succeed,” Shane says. “This is a conviction that I share with The Joint’s executive team. They have built a business model that is simple to run and simple to scale, and they continually look for a way to help franchisees increase their level of profitability. If you’re a driven entrepreneur with the desire to succeed The Joint is the right business for you.”

With a small footprint, limited overhead and a staff consisting of three to four employees, The Joint is easy to operate and boasts a proven business model that is uncommon in the $3 trillion healthcare industry. Our membership model eliminates the need for insurance while providing our franchise owners with a recurring revenue stream that helps to maximize profitability and potentially hasten their return on investment.
