General Information About
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic Care was founded in 1895 and is licensed in all 50 states and
major foreign countries. Chiropractic is recognized by Medicare and most
insurance companies, including auto insurance, and group and workers
compensation (varies from state to state). All Federal Agencies accept
sick leave certificates signed by Doctors of Chiropractic. The Doctor of
Chiropractic undergoes a minimum of six years of college education, plus
one externship before graduating. The course of study includes the basic
sciences studied by other members of the healing arts. These subjects are
anatomy, physiology, bacteriology, pathology, chemistry, X-ray,
pediatrics, geriatrics, nutrition and many other chiropractic subjects and
procedures. Chiropractic colleges are accredited by the Council of
Chiropractic Education (C.C.E.). This agency is recognized by the U.S.
Department of Education and the Council on Post-Secondary Education.
The Road To Vibrant Health Is Chiropractic
Good health is not an accident. Good nutrition, moderate exercise, plenty
of water, and proper rest are necessary for your body to reach its maximum
healing ability and maintain good health. Chiropractic care enhances your
body’s own natural ability to repair itself. Chiropractic care treats the
CAUSE of the problems, not just the symptoms. Medication merely masks the
symptoms and does nothing to cure the underlying problem. Pain is the way
your body tells you something is wrong. With chiropractic care, your pain
and discomfort should end, and you should be able to return to a vibrant,
healthy life. Chiropractic treatment is comfortable with no side effects.
