Today we’d like to introduce you to Dr. Albert McGuire and Dr. Chanel Metzler.
Hello Dr. McGuire and Dr. Metzler, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
I and my fiancé graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic in September 2019. Our plan – open our very own chiropractic office within the next 3-4 months. We didn’t have any other jobs or sources of income so opening a business was going to work whether we liked it or not. By December we had a space and were going to work over the course of the next two months to have the office up and running by the end of January. Fast forward to January 20th of 2020 – we opened the doors and started treating patients.
We were hungry and ready to help our community, our office was growing and we were doing as much marketing as we could until the end of March 2020 and Covid-19 stopped everything. Thankfully, our overhead was low and we could stay open but we only saw 20 patients in the entire month of April. (We still get nervous every April because we don’t want to go back to that year). Even though we are unsure how we made it through we are glad that we did, because now 3 years later we are hiring more and more staff and continuing to grow and do everything we can to help our community.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Absolutely not, but I feel like we have learned so much through every challenge that we have gone through. From Covid to fighting the struggles of separating home life and work life. We have grown not only as business owners but also as chiropractors and individuals.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
We are a sports-focused chiropractic clinic in Mount Juliet. We treat all ages, from newborns to adults and we strive to get everyone moving. Our main goal is to keep people working out, running, playing sports, and just being active.
At inTune, we treat the whole body from your head to toe and we do more than just adjust patients. We work with muscles, tendons, and ligaments, and view the whole person. Dr. Albert McGuire is finishing his Certified Chiropractic Sports Practitioner’s certification this April and will be the only CCSP doctor in Wilson County. We offer many different things in our office that are unique to our area! -Piezowave2 therapy, which helps reduce inflammation and promote natural healing.
-Dynamic Cupping
-Functional movement prehab for ACL
-Blood Flow Restriction therapy
-Normatec Compression
-and so much more!
The thing that we are most proud of brand-wise – is that we have built and are known as a true sports chiropractic office – from day-to-day gym goers to youth athletes to professional athletes. We treat and view everyone that comes into our office as an athlete. We have created a safe place for people to truly feel heard and understand their healthcare goals.
What would you say has been one of the most important lessons you’ve learned?
JUST KEEP GOING – each day is different and there will always be a new challenge or obstacle to overcome. We just have to try and laugh through it and keep going.
