Expedition Chiropractic: A Family-Run Alternative to Traditional Medicine

Dr. Steven Barger Episode 1

Meet The Host: Dr. Steven Barger, Owner of Expedition Chiropractic

Are you tired of healthcare approaches that only mask symptoms without addressing the underlying causes? Dr. Steven Barger reveals how Expedition Chiropractic is changing lives across Port St. Lucie and the Treasure Coast with a fundamentally different approach to health and healing.

Meeting Dr. Barger feels like connecting with someone who genuinely cares about your wellbeing. As the owner of a small, family-run chiropractic practice operating for over five years, he shares how their personalized approach sets them apart in a world of assembly-line healthcare. "We want to make sure that we get good results with everybody that comes in and to make sure that they get personalized care," Dr. Barger explains, highlighting the importance of treating patients as individuals rather than conditions.

What truly stands out is Dr. Barger's philosophy on healing. Rather than relying on medications and surgeries that often just cover symptoms, his Gonstead chiropractic approach focuses on optimizing nervous system function to allow your body to heal naturally.

Whether your back has taken an unexpected detour or just needs a tune-up, you're in the right place. Let's get started.

Speaker 2:

Welcome everybody. I'm Benjamin John, the co-host and producer, here in studio with Dr Stephen Barger. Dr Barger, how's it going?

Speaker 3:

I'm great. How are you?

Speaker 2:

today. Good yeah, I'm doing fantastic today, thank you. Over the years, you've grown a pretty good following. However, some of our listeners might not be familiar with your full journey, and so let's just take it from the top. Could you share a little background about your company and what you do?

Speaker 3:

Of course. So I own and operate Exhibition Chiropractic. We're a small family run office. We've been open just over five years now. For the majority of time it's just been my wife and I. We actually just had a little boy five months ago, so she's taking some time out of the office taking care of the little guy. We have some wonderful front desk staff. Christina's been helping us out a lot. So it's a small office but that allows us to take really good care of our people that we do see and I want to make sure that we get good results with everybody that comes in and to make sure that they get personalized care and they feel like they're taken care of when they do come into our office.

Speaker 2:

Very nice. I like that. When you're not busy running your busy business, what do you do for fun?

Speaker 3:

Yeah, so usually I like to get on the golf course a few times a month. With a little guy I haven't been able to as much, but golf's a big thing for my general hobbies and I just like spending time with my family. I have family close to town as well and that's the best thing, and when I can I like to travel as well. That would be my two things would be golf and travel, I'd say.

Speaker 2:

Very nice, I like it. So we know marketing is key to any business's success, right? How do you market your business right now?

Speaker 3:

Yeah, so the biggest place that we are able to get our patients from are referrals. We love taking care of families, so usually we take care of the wife first and the husband's always drag in a few months later if they hurt themselves or something like that. So most of the time it's families or friend referrals. But I do some in-person networking. I'm part of a BNI group that's a business networking international. They've been a great way for our business to grow and to make sure that we get our name out in the Port St Lucie community for just being an honest chiropractor and that is going to make sure that we get good results with everybody that comes into our office.

Speaker 2:

Nice, I like that. Now, dr Barger, I know personally that you're a very busy person, in your own words. Why are you doing this?

Speaker 3:

Yes. So the main reason I'm doing this is because I want to give people an alternative to other medical care systems. A lot of people have fallen through the cracks in the medical care system. It could of people have fallen through the cracks in the medical care system. It could be as simple as just back and neck pain, headaches, or it could be some type of autoimmune, or they don't have a lot of energy or they're not sleeping well at night, and they've been to lots of doctors and they really couldn't find the answers.

Speaker 3:

And I like to show people an alternative that if we take care of the whole body and really focus on their nervous system and have their nervous system function better, that their body's going to function better. And it's an indirect correlation where, if I can have somebody's spine working better and that nervous system in the spine starts expressing itself, that the body will start to heal itself. And that's the main thing. We want to make sure we can avoid giving people pills or surgeries that are ultimately just covering up their itself. And that's the main thing. We want to make sure we can avoid giving people pills or surgeries that are ultimately just covering up their symptoms, but really make sure that we can get to the root cause and find out what's causing this person's issues. We correct that and allow the body to heal itself, and we're able to do that. We're able to get really good results with your standard chiropractic services, like back pain, neck pain, headaches, but also a myriad of other things as well.

Speaker 2:

Very cool. I like that you take a level of care that it sounds like it's very, very personal to you and you actually have a high level of care in what you do and you believe in it, and I can have appreciation for that. Yes, all right. Well, I love it. Dr Barger, we'll catch you on the next episode, where we're going to dive into some frequently asked questions.

Speaker 1:

So, yeah, until then, have yourself a fantastic rest of your day. Okay, awesome, thank you very much. Thank you for joining the Expedition Chiropractic podcast.
