About Us
Indian Trail Chiropractic & Rehab isn’t your typical chiro office. We’re a results-driven rehab clinic helping athletes, weekend warriors, and everyday people in the Matthews/Indian Trail community move better, recover faster, and live healthier. We measure success by patient outcomes — not by how many bodies we move through the door. We run the clinic with the heart of a small-town practice and the standards of a pro sports facility.
If you’ve ever wanted to work somewhere that takes patient care seriously, invests in its people, and actually has a career path — keep reading.
The Role
You won’t be stuck behind a desk. You’ll be on the floor every day — coaching patients through rehab exercises our doctors prescribe, running our therapy modalities (shockwave, Erchonia laser, e-stim, intersegmental traction, therapeutic exercise), and progressing into taking patient histories and digital x-rays once you’re trained up. You’ll also be cross-trained on the front desk, because every person on our team owns the patient experience from check-in to check-out.
This is a high-touch, high-impact role. You’ll be on a first-name basis with our patients. You’ll know their goals, their kids’ names, their last PR. You directly influence whether patients finish their care plans, leave reviews, and refer their friends — and you’ll be recognized (and bonused) for it.
Who Thrives Here
- You’re outgoing and genuinely enjoy people. You start conversations — you don’t wait to be asked.
- You show up on time, every time. We start the day as a team and we don’t keep patients waiting.
- You bring your A-game regardless of what’s happening outside of work. We all have lives — we leave the noise at the door.
- You handle pressure with composure. Busy mornings, last-minute changes, tough patient conversations — you stay steady.
- You take ownership. Something breaks, you fix it or flag it. No blame games.
- You bring solutions, not just problems. When something’s off, we don’t want a heads-up — we want your read on what’s happening and what you’d do about it. We’ll discuss, refine, and decide together. Problem-passers wear our team out. Problem-solvers move us forward.
- You’re coachable. You can take direction on clinical protocols and exercise progressions without taking it personally. Our doctors own the prescription; you own the execution and the patient relationship.
- You want to learn and get better. We invest heavily in training — that only pays off with people who actually want to grow.
Background We Love (None Required)
- Exercise science, kinesiology, athletic training, sports medicine, health promotion, or wellness coaching
- Personal training, strength coaching, or group fitness experience — past roles or current part-time work at a gym or studio is great. This role is not a fit for anyone currently running their own personal training business or building a private client roster. Our patients are not a referral source for outside services, and our clinical team owns all exercise prescription inside the clinic.
- Prior chiropractic, PT, or medical office experience
- NC Radiation Tech certification for chiropractic x-ray is a major plus. Don’t have it? We’ll sponsor you through it.
What We Offer
- $18–$20/hr base + performance bonus tied to retention, reviews, and referrals
- 34–37 hours/week — half-day Wednesdays and Fridays, no Saturdays
- Paid time off
- Retirement plan with employer match
- Paid continuing education (chiropractic CA certification)
- Free chiropractic care for you and your immediate family
- A real career path — we’re building a clinic system, not just filling a seat
Our Standard

- Relentless Accountability — we own our time, our communication, and our follow-through
- Human First, Always — every patient is a real person with a story
- Never Stop Evolving — good enough isn’t good enough
- Precision is the Standard — we don’t guess, we assess
- Serve the Mission, Not the Ego — team over titles, outcomes over optics
- Community Roots, Championship Standards — small-town heart, pro-facility execution
If those resonate, we should talk.
