DISRUPTING OUTDATED CHIROPRACTIC MODELS 
THROUGH CONVERSATION, EDUCATION &
A LITTLE  BIT OF SACRED REBELLION.

IT’S TIME TO BRING FEMININE BALANCE TO THE CHIROPRACTIC PROFESSION.

Ok, let’s get this truthbomb out of the way before I get to the gooood stuff: I have been a member of this profession for 20 years and honestly not enough has changed.   
I am committed to making a difference for the future doctors of the  future.

 

Flash back with me to a few key memories … 

 

Like the time post-graduation that I wrote a business plan & had it reviewed by another well known chiropractor who told me that it ‘wouldn’t work.” 

 

Or the time I had a local chiropractor come into my practice in my first 6 months posing as a patient to see what I was doing 

 

Or how about answering the phone in my own practice and have someone ask to speak to the Doctor?

 

I look back on that time and can see that I didn’t feel supported and really struggled to find a practice model that was right for me (even though my wife and I started our own practice fresh out of school).

It took me a long time with a lot of years of feeling really isolated in my own profession to find myself.   I love the ‘me’ I found in the room with my patients and the students in my classroom and college office.

I found my voice and my gift of connecting with another human beings in a space of vulnerability.  I love the aspect of practice that allowed me to explore compassion and empathy for others while creating boundaries for myself and a safe space for my patients to heal & grow.

 

I love to share what I know and what has made the most difference for me in my ability to show up fully for myself, my patients, the students and Doctors I support. 

 

I provide a space where you can fully express your vulnerabilities and I provide options and strategies for you, the Doctor. 

It is often forgotten that this  Doctor-Patient journey is your journey too!

I was in private practice from 2001 - 2014. At its smallest, it was wait-list only. At its biggest, I worked 22 patient hours per week, managed an entire team and the practice made $900k per year in a 900 sq ft space open 7 days a week.

I ran a health center and directed the clinical education of approximately 4000+ chiropractic students from 2014 - 2019 (5 yrs) at an accredited chiropractic college in the United States.

I am well travelled and have facilitated service retreats in Costa Rica, India and Mexico… providing care as well as assisting students and doctors in discovering the  power  of chiropractic.

 

I am good at what I do.  I  love supporting Doctors in  creating a practice that they  are good at too.

FUN FACTS

I love being on a road bike riding in the sunshine with beautiful views & smells

I still own the sewing machine my mother gave me in high school

I play with clay... mostly hand building & studied in Japan for a month in 2019

I played the trombone & would have no idea how to play today

I love sour jujubes (& I didn't realize until a few years ago that jujube was actually a fruit)

I love watching modern dance, it is like meditation for me

 

I am highly aesthetically inclined and for many years thought that this was vanity instead of a gift

 

I am a reluctant runner  but  run 20-30km/week

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

"This was my first foray into mentoring and I couldn't be happier.  Dr MacIntyre didn't expect me to conform to her views or follow her procedures, she offered me possible solutions.   We talked about what felt right for me and my practice.   She introduced me to new ideas and procedures that I had not considered and have been a great fit for me.  My absolute favorite thing she said to me in our last meeting  - just be where you are, you can still  grow and change, but it's OK to just be where you are right now and work with that.  When I called her I was feeling like I was drowning and Dr Tamara helped.  It's not like she threw me a lifesaver.  It was like: "You had the boat all along, it just had some holes in it.  Let me give you direction on how you can fix those holes.  Oh, and by the way, what is your dream boat?  Here are some tools for you to build that."
