From the start, I knew I wanted my own chiropractic practice, even before going to school. In school, they only teach one business class, which isn’t enough to prepare you for starting your own practice. I won’t lie; the idea of starting my own practice right after school made me nervous. My husband gave me some advice that I now share with new grads thinking about it: going to school was the big risk; it cost a lot. Starting a practice can be small and cheap. You just need $10,000 and a room to begin, and then you can grow from there. Take a chance on yourself and go for it.
