What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Healthsource Chiropractic's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Healthsource Chiropractic does not currently operate or franchise a business under a different trademark or service mark that is similar or dissimilar to the products and services offered by Healthsource Chiropractic franchises. However, Healthsource Chiropractic's affiliate, HealthSource Chiropractic International, LLC, plans to offer and sell HealthSource Chiropractic Clinic and Regional Developer franchises internationally using the Healthsource Chiropractic marks. HealthSource Chiropractic International, LLC, will not use a different trademark or service mark to offer or sell clinic franchises and will not offer or sell clinics in a franchisee's protected territory.

This statement assures potential franchisees that Healthsource Chiropractic is not currently competing with them under a different brand. However, it is important to note that Healthsource Chiropractic and its affiliates retain the right to offer other healthcare-related companies or franchises, or enter into other lines of business, offering products and services that are similar or dissimilar to those offered by HealthSource Chiropractic franchises, both in and outside of a franchisee's Protected Territory, under trademarks and service marks other than the Marks without any compensation to the franchisee. This could potentially introduce competition from the franchisor or its affiliates in the future.

While Healthsource Chiropractic states they are not currently operating or franchising under a different trademark, they reserve the right to do so in the future. Prospective franchisees should consider this when evaluating the long-term competitive landscape and the potential impact on their franchise. It would be prudent to discuss these potential competitive scenarios with Healthsource Chiropractic during the due diligence process to fully understand the implications.
