What must a Healthsource Chiropractic franchisee do if they propose a material revision to their website?

Based on the 2025 Healthsource Chiropractic Franchise Agreement, if a franchisee wants to make any material alterations to the appearance of their franchise, as originally developed, they must obtain advance written approval from Healthsource Chiropractic. If the franchisee proceeds without this approval, Healthsource Chiropractic has the right, at its discretion and at the franchisee's expense, to rectify the unapproved alterations.

This requirement ensures that all Healthsource Chiropractic franchises maintain a consistent brand image and adhere to the franchisor's standards. By requiring prior approval for material alterations, Healthsource Chiropractic can control the quality and uniformity of its clinics, which is crucial for brand recognition and customer trust.

For a prospective franchisee, this means that any significant changes they wish to make to their clinic's appearance, including website modifications, must be submitted to Healthsource Chiropractic for review and approval. This process may involve providing detailed plans or mock-ups of the proposed changes. While this requirement may limit a franchisee's autonomy, it also protects the overall brand and ensures that all locations meet the franchisor's standards.

It is important for potential franchisees to understand that failure to obtain prior approval for material alterations can result in Healthsource Chiropractic taking corrective action at the franchisee's expense. Therefore, maintaining open communication with the franchisor and adhering to the established approval process is essential for a successful and compliant franchise operation.
