Brown, D.C., F.C.S.C. (Hon.), A.C.P ABSTRACT The task of presenting an overview of the life's work of the founder of the chiropractic profession appeared to be straightforward at first glance. However, when engaged in preparation for the presentation of, D.D. Palmer, his thoughts, words and deeds, it became quickly apparent that this was an extraordinarily broad, yet fascinating assignment. This paper seeks to develop a reasoned context derived from an overview of the thoughts, words and deeds of the profession's founder. That D.D. Palmer was individualistic and enigmatic is undeniable, nevertheless this work intends to provide a look at the whole, to reveal the character and spirit of the founder, thus leading to reasonable assumptions about the meaning of this fascinating life. ---------- Practice Objective and Its Impact on the Future of the Chiropractic Profession By Judith Nutz Campanale, D.C., F.C.S.C. ABSTRACT This paper examines the sociological constructs that define a profession and applies them to the chiropractic profession. The impact of practice objective on the future of the chiropractic profession is also thoroughly discussed. It is concluded that there are currently at least two separate professions within the chiropractic profession, each of which is fairly well defined and supported. This does not bode well for the profession as a whole as it confuses the public/consumer, creates significant internal strife, and inhibits the profession from gaining its own unique market share ---------- The Straight - Mixer Quandary: Will Chiropractic Survive? Can It Thrive? By James J. Peck, D.C. ABSTRACT This paper is concerned with the absence of a homogeneous definition and objective within the chiropractic profession. As a result of this, chiropractic has struggled and even suffered. While the current situation does not bode well for the profession, it is time to investigate satisfactory solutions. Chiropractic has too much to offer humanity to continue on its current path. To cite Thomas Edison "The doctor of the future will give no medicine, he will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in a proper diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease." ---------- Rationales For Variations In Frequency Of Patient Care Among Subluxation Centered Chiropractic Practitioners By Felicia Stewart, D.C., A.C.P INTRODUCTION While it is widely known within the profession that there is a great variation in frequency of care, the reasons behind this wide range are seldom discussed in a formal setting. Three philosophical constructs may serve as a basis for decisions concerning how often a practice member is scheduled for an office visit: the definition of vertebral subluxation, adaptability, and the perceived impact of universal forces on the body. Two aspects of chiropractic practice that derive most or all of their foundation from these three constructs include the care plan and patient education. Two new phrases (created for discussion purposes only), phenomenological view of chiropractic and nutritional view of chiropractic, relate to the relationships between these three philosophical constructs and the aspects of chiropractic practice that derive from them. The intent of this paper is to foster introspection and discussion within and among chiropractors concerning their own basis for recommending a frequency of care and to identify ways in which analytical procedures and patient education can better reflect chiropractic philosophy. http: //www.sherman.edu/ACP

Download or read book The Religion of Chiropractic written by Holly Folk and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-03-13 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chiropractic is by far the most common form of alternative medicine in the United States today, but its fascinating origins stretch back to the battles between science and religion in the nineteenth century. At the center of the story are chiropractic's colorful founders, D. D. Palmer and his son, B. J. Palmer, of Davenport, Iowa, where in 1897 they established the Palmer College of Chiropractic. Holly Folk shows how the Palmers' system depicted chiropractic as a conduit for both material and spiritualized versions of a "vital principle," reflecting popular contemporary therapies and nineteenth-century metaphysical beliefs, including the idea that the spine was home to occult forces. The creation of chiropractic, and other Progressive-era versions of alternative medicine, happened at a time when the relationship between science and religion took on an urgent, increasingly competitive tinge. Many remarkable people, including the Palmers, undertook highly personal reinterpretations of their physical and spiritual worlds. In this context, Folk reframes alternative medicine and spirituality as a type of populist intellectual culture in which ideologies about the body comprise a highly appealing form of cultural resistance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chiropractic Peace marks the beginning of the end for infighting between mixers (broad-scope) and straights (focused-scope). The three refreshing essays by Drs. Reed Phillips, Ashley Cleveland, and Gerry Clum introduce chiropractic leaders, students, faculty and practitioners to a new, less contentious, dialogue on the political, sociological, philosophical and historical issues of our profession. After years of polemical argumentation, reading Chiropractic Peace is like getting a new pair of glasses or a much-needed spinal adjustment. Uplifting relief! Instead of seeking peace by trying to hammer out compromises, which many do not find successful in the end, the three writers utilize the concept of pluralism to construct a big tent which will accommodate all ethical chiropractors who adhere to basic chiropractic principles. The three contributors bring a much-needed respectful tone to the discourse. And in an important turn for the profession, each writer acknowledges that all of the campsfocused-scope, middle-scope, and broad-scopeare committed to ethical and skillful practice.
