How much should I spend on Facebook ads for my chiropractic practice?

Start with $20-40 daily budget ($600-1,200 monthly) for initial testing. This gives Facebook's algorithm enough data to optimize while keeping risk manageable. Plan to test for 30-60 days before scaling. Once you're consistently generating leads at $30-60 each with 20-30% conversion to patients, gradually increase budget by 20% weekly. Most successful practices scale to $1,500-3,000 monthly once profitability is proven.

What type of Facebook ads work best for chiropractors?

Video testimonials from real patients convert best, followed by before-after transformation stories and educational content addressing specific pain points. Lead form ads (native Facebook forms) generate higher volume but sometimes lower quality leads. Traffic ads to optimized landing pages produce better-qualified leads who've shown higher intent by clicking through. Start with testimonial videos and special offer ads, then expand to educational content once you have baseline performance data.

How do I target the right people with my Facebook ads?

Target 5-10 mile radius around your practice (adjust for urban/rural), ages 30-65, and layer interests like fitness, wellness, yoga, running, or specific health conditions. Use detailed targeting expansion to let Facebook find similar audiences. Create custom audiences from your patient list for lookalike targeting. Exclude current patients to avoid wasting budget. Start broad, then narrow based on which demographics convert best after 30 days of data collection.

Should I use Facebook lead forms or send people to my website?

Test both and let data decide. Lead forms generate 2-3x more leads but often lower quality since friction is minimal. Landing page conversions are fewer but typically higher intent and better show rates. Use lead forms for awareness and volume, use landing page campaigns for qualified prospects ready to book. Many successful practices run both simultaneously—lead forms for top-of-funnel, landing pages for retargeting warm audiences.

How long does it take to see results from Facebook ads?

Expect leads within 2-3 days of launch, but meaningful performance data takes 30-45 days. Week 1 is testing and learning as Facebook's algorithm optimizes delivery. Weeks 2-4 show clearer patterns in lead quality and cost. Month 2 is when you have enough data to confidently scale or pivot strategy. Don't judge performance in first 7-10 days—algorithms need time and data to optimize delivery to your best audiences.

What should my Facebook ad say to attract chiropractic patients?

Lead with the specific problem your ideal patient experiences, not generic benefits. Use headlines like 'Struggling with Lower Back Pain That Won't Go Away?' or 'Chronic Headaches Disrupting Your Life?' Follow with brief credibility statement, patient result, and clear offer with urgency. Include strong CTA like 'Book Your $49 New Patient Exam Today' or 'Claim Your Free Consultation.' Show real patient transformations when possible—specificity and authenticity beat polish.

Can I run Facebook ads if I've never done it before?

Yes—Facebook's interface is beginner-friendly with guided setup. Expect 2-3 hours for initial campaign creation plus 30-60 minutes weekly for monitoring and optimization. Follow step-by-step tutorials, start with simple campaigns, and scale complexity as you learn. Many chiropractors successfully run their own ads. Alternatively, hire freelancer or agency if you prefer to focus on patient care—budget $500-1,500 monthly for professional management plus ad spend.
