YouTube discussion (by Jeff Langmaid) promoting locum tenens for chiropractors as a way to take vacations, staycations, or 'workations'—including a 'pit stop' model where the clinician remains but is relieved of hands-on adjustments to allow bodily recovery. Emphasizes preventing burnout and physical strain for manual adjusters by bringing temporary coverage for days or weeks.
And Jeff, this like nine reasons why people use locums. I just want to stay here for just a second because this is the stuff that's exciting and fun, right? The idea of taking vacations and not just your typical, hey, I'm going to go away vacation. You could also do a staycation where you've decided, you know what, you're just going to stick around and stay home. Doesn't have to be anything extraordinary where you go for a big travel. Just hang out with your family, maybe catch up with the things you have to do at home. You know that honey do list. Or how about a workation, right? So something that we call the pit stop, right? We're all F1 racing fans, car racing fans, right? So the idea of the pit stop, which is you could stay in that practice and continue to work, but just not be bending over the table seeing, seeing patients and giving your body a rest. So those doctors out there who are physical, really manual adjusters, the idea of like being able to take two or three or four days off or two or three or four weeks, bring somebody in and give that body an opportunity to recover. And here's the truth. We all know what happens if you don't take that pit stop in the race, right?
