Axiom Chiropractic

What Axiom Chiropractic does

Axiom Chiropractic is a private chiropractic practice founded in 2021 and headquartered at 413 S Sharon Amity Rd Suite A in the Southpark neighborhood of Charlotte, North Carolina. The practice is co-led by two Doctors of Chiropractic—Dr. Tyler Hartley (Palmer College of Chiropractic) and Dr. Megan Hullihen (Webster Technique certified, postgraduate Gonstead training)—alongside approximately four support staff. It specializes in the Gonstead technique, a precise full-spine chiropractic methodology that combines visualization, palpation, instrumentation, X-ray analysis, and case history correlation to identify and correct specific vertebral subluxations rather than performing generalized manipulation.

The clinical stack pairs Gonstead analysis with objective diagnostic hardware: full-spine weight-bearing A-P and lateral X-rays, INSiGHT nervous system scanning using Nervoscope/Delta-T bilateral temperature instrumentation, and FDA-cleared BIOMAX red light therapy panels delivering 660nm and 850nm wavelengths for photobiomodulation. Three adjacent service lines extend the core offering: functional medicine with comprehensive blood-work analysis, medical-grade red light therapy, and animal chiropractic—marketed separately under the Axiom Animal Chiropractic sub-brand at charlotteanimalchiropractor.com.

The business operates as a direct-to-consumer professional-services practice with no referral requirement. Revenue is generated per visit and through care plans across cash, credit/debit, HSA/FSA, and CareCredit, with itemized receipts available for out-of-network insurance reimbursement. Patient acquisition is organic and multi-channel, anchored by a condition-specific SEO blog, active social profiles on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, a free discovery-call funnel, and earned-media features in five regional publications. Customer segments are horizontal: individuals and families (primary), athletes, children/adolescents, and pet owners.
