 The development of Chiropractic as a
specific healing art and science dates back to 1895. Chiropractic is one
of the three major schools of healing. There's medicine (allopathy),
osteopathy, and Chiropractic. As a school of healing, Chiropractic may
be defined in general terms as the diagnosis and treatment of human
ailments without the use of drugs, medicine or incisive surgery. It is a
drugless, non-surgical form of treatment - a natural approach to health
and wellness.
A Doctor of Chiropractic is concerned with the relationship between
structure, primarily the spine, and function, primarily the nervous
system of the human body. This relationship may affect the restoration
and preservation of health. These key building blocks of health are the
foundation of Chiropractic.
In just over 100 years, Chiropractic has developed into a recognized
health care profession. There are over 50,000 licensed doctors of
Chiropractic in the U.S. and thousands more around the world. The
practice of Chiropractic is defined and regulated by statutes in all 50
states, the District of Columbia, and many countries around the world.
