DIVING INTO…
Bridging Chiropractic and Medical Communities
Saleem believes that chiropractic must be recognized as a viable alternative to surgery for severe spinal cases. He has raised over $700,000 for decompression research at the University of South Florida, which has caught the attention of neurosurgeons and other medical professionals. By grounding decompression in research, Saleem is helping chiropractic become a trusted option across the healthcare spectrum.
Empowering Chiropractors Through Education
Excite Medical is not just about selling equipment. Saleem runs multiple marketing workshops each year, teaching chiropractors how to optimize their online presence, utilize tools like Google pixels and AI, and uncover blind spots in their patient acquisition strategies. These workshops give doctors confidence to connect with more patients while maintaining their independence.
The Case for Decompression in Practice
Decompression with the DRX9000® attracts patients who might otherwise head straight to surgery. With proven results and a high case value, decompression can transform both patient outcomes and practice growth. Saleem emphasized that true decompression must be distinguished from generic traction devices and that proper patient examination and qualification are essential.
Closing Thought
As Saleem shared, “You have to be convinced to be convincing.” When chiropractors believe in the value they offer, patients will see it too. This episode is a wake-up call about the dangers of unnecessary surgeries and the importance of preserving options for conservative, non-invasive care.
