10/02/23 • 50 min
Listen in to episode 77 where myself, Craig Mclean and Doc Conor Ward ‘the health elevator’ discuss heart rate variability (HRV), what is it and why do we measure it?
What effects does chiropractic have on HRV, your nervous system and your overall health.
Lastly what is whoop / other wearable health tech devices that measure HRV, our overall strain/stress and recovery scores and how can they add to the body of scientific evidence to support how healthy lifestyle choices including a visit to the chiropractor can positively impact your overall health and wellbeing.
Early research on chiro and HRV in the link below, we need more but let's keep chatting about it and inspiring a larger body of evidence on the topic.

Chiropractors when you fall pregnant, HELP! Katelyn McGregor shares some invaluable insight from personal experience.
Welcome to Katelyn McGregor who is a chiropractor, mother of two, married to Andy McGregor a great Chiro a mate of mine, business owner and part of a private midwifery offering.
We discuss loads about being pregnant as a chiropractor, following your own advice, preparing your body, how long should you practice for before maternity leave, giving yourself time for the best possible experience, preparing yourself financially for the inevitable time out as either a self employed chiro or practice owner.
Then Katelyn shares some professional experience both as a chiro and as a member of a private midwifery team. How best to help your clients or patients.
I don't believe we chatted for 90 mins, it's a long one and quite a niche topic but I hope you enjoy and find some insight from our ramblings.

The aim was to provide some really useful information to chiropractors, anyone who is self employed or business owners about a topic that may be perceived as a bit dull.

Then we cover the below topics....
Financial services
Accountants and IFAs - differences and how do you find a good one?
How much do you need to earn to warrant using an IFA?
Given the slice they take from the investments why should we use them over just winging the investments ourselves?

Self employment.
Being a sole trader vs starting a company (we run through the tax brackets)
Tax planning
ISA’s, Pensions and other efficient ways to save tax as a high earner
