68 - Massage to Chiropractic & Acupuncture: Dr. Richard Snow’s Path from Headaches to Healing

In this episode of All Things Chiropractic, hosts Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini welcome Dr. Richard Snow to discuss his unconventional journey from massage therapy to chiropractic and acupuncture. Dr. Snow shares personal health struggles that led him to alternative care, his training path, and how he integrates acupuncture, microcurrent, moxibustion (moxa), cupping, and chiropractic adjustments in practice.

Topics covered include the relationship between subluxations and meridian imbalances, Eastern and Western acupuncture approaches, needle alternatives for needle-phobic patients, and practical clinical tips for chiropractors considering acupuncture training. Dr. Snow also reflects on business insights from his pre-chiropractic career and offers advice on proper education and scope-of-practice awareness across states.

Listeners can expect clinical anecdotes, analogies explaining acupuncture concepts, guidance on co-treating with other practitioners, and resources for further training and contact information for Dr. Snow’s clinic, Choice of Health in Overland Park, Kansas.
