Other Leading Chiropractors Weigh In
What a gift to Chiropractic.
What a gift to humanity.
Wow! I didn't expect what I read. I was around after Stevie's injury. I was in the house every weekend when Michael and his family arrived. I remember with fond memories those days. I remember being Michael's roommate in chiropractic school. I remember loving being the only girl in a house of boys and being watched over and cared for.
I don't remember this side of Michael. This book is a God send. It's a lifetime of pain, suffering, growth, learning, coaching wrapped up in a beautiful package that can be read in a few short hours. What a gift to Chiropractic. What a gift to humanity. Take the time...you have 88 hours in a week for growth, take the few short hours. Read, learn, grow, and work!!! Love you, Michael!

Wisdom, Insight, Emotion
"Dr. Mike Martin is one of the last few chiropractors who can inspire us, because he has done it! In this book he shares his wisdom, insight, emotion, and a hand full of the key pieces needed to start the journey to building something amazing. I believe our profession is at a critical time in its existence, and it is my sincere hope that enough doctors of chiropractic will read this so we can change the course of the health of our nation... if not the world."

Dr. Mike is the Real Deal!
Great read. Very authentic. Mike is the real deal, and his book chronicles his success, and he makes success seem very attainable if you are willing to work for it. I especially loved reading it because I too am a chiropractor, and it is very clear the Mike is a chiropractor and thinks like a chiropractor. We are a unique lot. Definitely worth your time!

This Book is Essential
Dr. Mike Martin’s Beyond the Adjustment is far more than a book about chiropractic—it’s a guide to living a life of service, principle, and deep fulfillment. With over three decades in the profession, Dr. Martin shares wisdom that every chiropractor, from seasoned practitioners to those just starting out, needs to hear. This book beautifully articulates the philosophy of living above down, inside out—not just in practice but in life. Dr. Martin challenges us to shift our mindset, reminding us that life doesn’t just happen to you—it happens for you. That lesson alone is worth the read. He also reinforces a truth that applies to every aspect of our journey: Don’t wish life were easier; wish to become better. One of the most compelling parts of Beyond the Adjustment is Dr. Martin’s deeply personal account of his older brother, Steve, who was in a devastating accident that left him paralyzed. The way he shares this story is both heart-wrenching and inspiring, illustrating the resilience of the human spirit and the power of unwavering belief. It’s a testament to the kind of love, faith, and commitment that drive the best chiropractors—not just to help patients, but to truly serve them. If you’re a chiropractor looking to elevate not only your practice but your life, this book is essential. Beyond the Adjustment is a powerful reminder of why we do what we do—and how we can do it even better.
