Help Educate the Next Generation of Patients

Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

In our June 2026 issue, we talked about the gap between what research says about chiropractic’s effectiveness and public awareness of that effectiveness; and how research – and a top chiropractic researcher, Christine Goertz, DC, PhD, former vice chancellor of research and health policy at Palmer College of Chiropractic, and now a professor at Duke University School of Medicine – are bridging that gap via Take Your Back Back: Whole Health Healing for Low Back Pain.

When Radiculopathy Isn’t Radiculopathy: A Clinical Series (Pt. 6): Differential Diagnosis
When Radiculopathy Isn’t Radiculopathy

The Relationship Behind the Referral
The Relationship Behind the Referral

For decades, chiropractors have been told the answer to more professional referrals is simple: educate medical doctors about chiropractic. There is some truth in that advice; but it is also incomplete. The modern challenge is not simply getting another healthcare professional to know that chiropractors exist. It is becoming the kind of clinician (and building the kind of professional relationship) that makes collaboration easy and sustainable.
