In this compelling episode of the Chiro Hustle Podcast, host James Chester welcomes Dr. Vince Kalkowski, a Wyoming-based chiropractor whose path to chiropractic began with a life-changing injury at age 13. From a devastating dirt bike crash to discovering chiropractic care through a renegade physical therapist, Dr. Kalkowski shares how he found his true calling.

The episode covers everything from childhood trauma and healing to elite-level rugby and deep reflections on the profession's future. This conversation isn't just about chiropractic; it's about personal freedom, resilience, and the urgent need for clarity in healthcare choices.

HIGHLIGHTS

The crash that changed everything: Vince suffered two thoracic compression fractures at age 13 that led to chronic pain and unexplained autonomic symptoms.

"That was it": One spinal adjustment from a maverick PT changed his life forever; no drugs, no shots.

From healing to purpose: The powerful experience of chiropractic care inspired Vince to become a chiropractor himself.

Palmer Rugby & scholarship: How rugby opened doors to one of the top chiropractic schools and a new chapter of excellence.

Serving the rodeo circuit: Adjusting Wyoming's toughest cowboys as part of the PRCA Wrangler sports chiropractic program.

Challenging modern trends: Vince questions the rise of cookie-cutter care and emphasizes the need for proper exams, imaging, and philosophy.

Miracle bear story: A life-or-death wilderness encounter proves Dr. Vince walks the talk, and lives to tell the tale.

The Fight for Freedom and Better Healthcare

CLOSING THOUGHT

Dr. Vince's story isn't just about his recovery, rugby career, or rodeo adventures. It's a call to preserve something real and powerful in healthcare: hands-on care, open conversation, and freedom to choose. The future of chiropractic, and maybe healthcare at large, depends on it.
