Airrosti Rehab Centers?

[Ligament]

This is a chiropractic run marketing company that places chiropractors directly inside MD/DO offices, in exchange for subleasing at that office they get referrals from the MD/DO. It is unclear to me how this benefits the MD/DO offices.

Their marketing brochure and website makes every effort to avoid ANY mention of chiropractic, but the MD who was approached by them tells me they are chiropractors that also do myofascial release/massage.

Best of all, they call themselves "Pain Management Specialists"

As best I can tell, they have simply rebranded Chiropractic to avoid the stigma, but are doing the same thing and only employing Chiropractors

"For consideration, you must be a licensed DC (preferably with 2+ years’ experience), be passionate about patient care, have exceptional palpation skills with above-average hand/grip strength, and have a genuine affinity for soft tissue work"

Anyway, anybody have any experience with them? It appears to be another marketing scam to me.

Hence the job requirements of above average grip strength.

Grip strength? Are you sure this is not a massage parlor?

they pay rent to the MD/DOs that lease space to them. We got approached by them a while back. It's basically manual therapy - active release - the chiros do not do adjustments. It's a big chain and they have their own trademarked training and "method". They are very good at marketing to employers and insurance companies - and have been able to carve out great reimbursement fee schedules - in exchange for guaranteed results in less number of sessions (average 3-6 sessions) - so you can either pay less for more sessions or pay more for each session but limited number of sessions - from the insurance company and employer's point of view. They are mostly good with acute tendonopathies and MSK injuries but not so much with the spine.
