Public Speaking
Every workshop I offer is inspirational, experiential and practical. I use a “performance presenter” style of teaching to involve everyone in the learning experience.
I’m an energetic motivator and a transformational educator who entertains the audience with music, laughter, PowerPoint, video, open forum discussion, Q&A, storytelling, role playing and handouts. The presentations are fun and fast paced.
In my workshops, I enjoy taking complex issues, translating them into understandable concepts, and then providing easy to follow solutions. Please call me to explore how I might help your event be more meaningful and memorable by transforming the lives of all who attend!

The following presentations are the most popular ones I have given but they can be modified or mixed to meet the needs of your organization.
1) The Failure of Science and the Success of Chiropractic
The chiropractic profession suffers internally and publicly from an underlying humiliation caused by the lack of acceptance by the medical and scientific communities. The resulting self doubt about the validity of the existence of Universal & Innate Intelligence weakens the possibility that our profession will ever take its rightful place as a leader in the evolving health care system.
This workshop destroys the false argument against the truth of chiropractic philosophy and rejuvenates the chiropractor with unshakable confidence in the principles and practices of Universal & Innate Intelligence. Just as DD & BJ Palmer had flourishing practices because they were undaunted by the popular opinions from the physicians of their time, chiropractors will learn how to fearlessly explain Intelligence to their patients and earn their trust as true healers.
By the end of this presentation, chiropractors will be reconnected to our philosophical roots and re-charged in order to become a powerful force in the growing public interest in the marriage of spirituality and science.
2) Tapping Directly Into Universal Intelligence
The philosophy of chiropractic is as profound in its vision, wisdom and intention as any ideological teaching on the planet. Dr. Schillinger will illuminate how the science of quantum physics and the spiritual philosophy of Universal Intelligence are describing the same Reality. This presentation will give chiropractors an opportunity to literally experience Universal Intelligence and understand why DD Palmer proclaimed that our profession was “Founded on Tone”.
Chiropractors will learn how to embody their insight to immunize themselves from the harmful effects of stress and enjoy what DD Palmer called, “remarkable energy”. Dr. Schillinger will illustrate why Palmer implored chiropractors to “correct abnormalities of the intellect as well as those of the body” – or, as Dr. Schillinger calls it, “adjusting mental subluxations”.
With an intimate relationship to Universal Intelligence, chiropractors will leave the presentation inspired to practice an enlightened chiropractic lifestyle which (as DD Palmer stated), “Connects the spiritual with the physical and constitutes in its fullest and highest sense, a religion”.
3) Enjoying the Richness of Your Innate Intelligence
BJ Palmer stated, “Universal Intelligence takes many attributes in the human educated mind”, which Dr. Schillinger interprets to mean that everyone has virtues that comprise the core, or soul of their Being. He will show doctors how to embody a deep spiritual perspective (Universal Intelligence) and transform it into positive beliefs and productive behaviors. This is what is meant by “Innate Intelligence” – and will enable us to enjoy a psychologically meaningful and biologically fulfilling life.
Dr. Bruce Lipton, a leading mind/body researcher and best-selling author (Biology of Belief) proves that, “Our bodies can be changed as we retrain our thinking”. Dr. Schillinger will teach chiropractors effective methods to convert their issues of self doubt and relational conflict into understandable concepts and practical solutions, utilizing the wisdom of their Innate Intelligence.
Chiropractors will know how to develop the discipline necessary to experience a life of personal and professional integrity (Total Alignment) and the simplest ways to teach these methods to their patients.
4) The Truth about Subluxation
The word subluxation literally means, “A condition of less than normal light” (“Lux” means “light” in Latin). Why is it that DD Palmer chose this word to define the main source of human illness? This workshop explores the source and nature of light from a spiritual, scientific and biological perspective. Dr. Schillinger illustrates how chiropractic adjustments restore electromagnetic tone to the nervous system and strengthen its charge.
Dr. Schillinger reviews DD Palmer’s three major causes of subluxation and why Palmer highlighted mental stress as the prime origin of human suffering. Chiropractors will learn how to easily expand their new patient procedures to include range of motion testing not only structurally, but nutritionally and psychologically as well. Knowing how to “tell the story” by educating patients about the truth of chiropractic care will keep them attracted to chiropractors as trusted voices of wellness.
Ultimately, this workshop unites the chiropractic profession by highlighting that we all share the same purpose, regardless of what techniques we use: restoring Light to humanity.
5) Stress Management for Chiropractors & Their Patients
Medical literature states that 80% of all illnesses are caused by stress. When our patients are too mentally and physically tense, even the best chiropractic adjustments may not be as effective as we know they should.
Unfortunately, chiropractors receive no formal training in effective stress reduction services. This results in millions of potential patients who don’t think of us when they’re searching for healthcare providers to help them reduce their mental stress. In this workshop, Dr. Schillinger will highlight his chiropractic stress management system. He will teach effective therapeutic stress reduction methods that require only one to three minutes per office visit.
Two years prior to Hans Selye, MD publishing his first extremely influential book (1956), The Stress of Life, Herman Schwartz, DC, wrote in his book, The Art of Relaxation, “You will learn that your relaxation may have a chain reaction that will calm the other person”. Doctors will leave this presentation with the tips and techniques they’ll need to re-energize themselves while rejuvenating their patients.
6) Why Chiropractors are Not Household Names
Dr. Schillinger has consciously followed the holistic healthcare and alternative spirituality movement since the 1960s and has learned the underlying “secret” that’s made famous health professionals (Drs. Chopra, Weil, Pert, Dyer, Lipton, etc.) wise and wealthy. This workshop explores how these practitioners built their empires, using the principles and practices our chiropractic forefathers were teaching over 100 years ago!
In a an independent study on the evolution of chiropractic in America, The Institute of Alternative Futures provided three clear recommendations for chiropractors if they are going to successfully compete for patients:
learn how to develop strong partnerships with their patients
incorporate personal growth strategies into their procedures and
become models of health.
Dr. Schillinger will teach doctors how to have attractive magnetic bonds with their patients by using his five step communication process which creates rewarding & resourceful relationships. Additionally, he will show chiropractors how to become wellness lifestyle mentors, ensuring a deeper connection and greater retention
7) Becoming The Chief Energy Officer of Your Life
Most people are over stressed with multiple work, family and personal obligations. They become disheartened when they can’t meet the demands of their life or take better care of themselves. This underlying chronic anxiety causes people to search for solutions worried that their answers may be elusive or, if found, too time consuming.
Using Dr. Schillinger’s wellness management system, called The CEO (Chief Energy Officer), doctors will learn how to help patients take command of their lives by creating simple routines that increase their personal integrity, time efficiency and physical energy. The CEO features thirteen wellness activities that can be done daily or spread out over a week. Each activity takes just five minutes and will help to recharge, relax or refocus patients.
Joe Dispenza, DC, author of the book, Evolve Your Brain, says, “People who have access to their Innate Intelligence can skillfully manifest their material goals and spiritual aspirations by harvesting the resources of their mind.” This workshop will show chiropractors how to teach their patients Discipline, the master catalyst that will allow their patients to heal themselves from “above down inside and out”.
Dr. Mark is compassionate, deep, and has a genuine desire to help others. His stress management techniques have taught me how to be true to myself. I am able to be a beacon and a magnet for my patients.
