I enjoy fast paced environments and helping others, I want a family-
based lifestyle where I can enjoy life with my family. I am good at
multitasking and time management
Salary range 93k-120k
Upsides of the job I’m still saving people and helping peoples lives.
Its good for a family life, I can pick roughly my own hours,
downsides are that it’s a slower paced field and can get repetitive.

patients on what’s going on. Future outlook is that chiropractors in

diseases. Advancement opportunities are that I can open my own
business and have people work under me and make double my
income.

how I can help

especially if I open my own business
