The Healthcare Professional Program is a unique sales and marketing program designed specifically for chiropractic offices to enhance their patients' overall wellness, while enjoying an additional, value-added revenue stream for their practice.

"Human Touch massage chairs and Perfect Chairs are the perfect complement to chiropractic treatments. They relax the mind and body so patients can realize maximum advantage during treatments and, after, they maintain optimal body alignment and muscle flexibility to help keep them healthy and happy," says Dr. John Maltby, DC, a member of Human Touch's Wellness Council, as well as the past president of the International Chiropractors Association (ICA) and current ICA Chairman of the Board.

Through this program, patients can enjoy Human Touch® massage chairs and Perfect Chairs in their chiropractors' office, which they can then purchase directly from their chiropractor to use in their own home at an attractive price. Chiropractors can sell Human Touch® chairs directly to their patients, creating an easy way to add new revenue to their practice.

The company also provides chiropractors with all marketing and sales materials, POP displays, and support to make the program successful and easy to manage.

In forming the Healthcare Professional Program, Human Touch® has consulted with three respected chiropractors to ensure its success, Drs. John K. Maltby, Shawn Henry Dill and Jon Stucky, who are also members of the Human Touch® Wellness Council. The Human Touch® Wellness Council comprises an esteemed panel of experts from various disciplines—including doctors, professional athletes, massage therapists and fitness experts—dedicated to educating people about how to achieve a healthier and happier life through regular massage, relaxation, sound posture, and other wellness practices.
