Chiropractor (Encinitas, CA)

Catalyst Health is a cash-pay sports chiropractic practice in Cardiff-by-the-Sea, CA, located just a few blocks from the beach. Built around Active Release Techniques (ART), corrective exercise, and measurable outcomes for athletes and active adults. No insurance. No billing. No fluff.

We're looking for a full-body ART-certified Doctor of Chiropractic who wants to do the best work of their career in a system designed to support it and who's excited to help grow something meaningful.

What You'll Do

You'll step into an established patient base of athletes, weekend warriors, and performance-driven adults who value results enough to pay for them.

Your role will include:

• Performing comprehensive assessments and delivering hands-on ART treatment
• Designing and integrating corrective exercise into every care plan
• Owning patient outcomes not just visit volume

This is a high-autonomy clinical role. You'll have the freedom and responsibility to deliver excellent care without the constraints of insurance-driven practice.

Because we're cash-pay, patient communication matters as much as clinical skill. You'll be trained in our consultation process how we assess, present findings, and guide patients into the right care plan. If you've never worked in a cash model, that's fine. We have the system; you bring the willingness to learn it.

You'll also be part of the practice's presence in the community connecting with local gyms, trainers, and sports organizations, and occasionally showing up at events or on our social channels. If you're the kind of person who's already at the gym, the beach, or the jiu-jitsu mats anyway, this will feel natural, not like a marketing job.

What We're Looking For

• Full-body ART certification or willingness to obtain
• Active California chiropractic license in good standing
• Athletic background or strong interest in sports performance and movement
• Excellent communication skills
• Comfort in a cash-pay, results-driven environment
• Coachable mindset and commitment to continuous improvement
• Corrective exercise and postural therapy experience is a plus (training provided for our systems)

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation: base salary + performance incentives
• Continuing education stipend + malpractice coverage
• Training in patient communication, consultation, and care plan presentation
• Fully equipped clinic in a premier coastal North San Diego County location
• A clinical model that prioritizes outcomes and performance
• Partnership potential for the right candidate

Why This Role

Most associate positions mean high-volume, insurance-driven care with limited clinical autonomy. This is different.

Catalyst Health was built as a premium, outcomes-focused practice where clinical quality comes first. If you want to practice at a high level, work with motivated patients, and be part of building something you're proud of, this is that opportunity.
