Imagine a conference that includes over 160 presentations from over 120 of the most authoritative figures in chiropractic. No, it's not a Parker seminar, it's the joining of two outstanding chiropractic conferences into one big event.
For the first time, the ninth annual meeting of the Association of Chiropractic Colleges (ACC) is combined with the seventh annual meeting of the chiropractic Research Agenda Conference (RAC) in New Orleans, March 13-16, 2002. It will be four days of workshops, platform and poster presentations that include some of the best clinical information, academic findings and chiropractic research this profession has to offer.
Until now, these two conferences were quietly tucked away and held for the benefit of chiropractic educators and the chiropractic research community. If you didn't already know about the conferences, you didn't know what you were missing. Both conferences, however, gained increasing popularity as venues where you could hear the most current information about developments in chiropractic, and have a chance to speak one-on-one with the doctors making it happen.
This year, the two organizations were persuaded to work together to create one of the most comprehensive chiropractic programs imaginable. Here are just a few of the over 160 topics that will be presented:

When sports chiropractors first appeared at the Olympic Games in the 1980s, it was alongside individual athletes who had experienced the benefits of chiropractic care in their training and recovery processes at home. Fast forward to Paris 2024, where chiropractic care was available in the polyclinic for all athletes, and the attitude has now evolved to recognize that “every athlete deserves access to sports chiropractic."
It is estimated that 61% of patients with CTS avoid taking surgical options due to postoperative complications and costly surgical procedures. Chiropractic care offers a comprehensive and effective treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome, addressing the condition from multiple angles. Recent studies also have unveiled a game-changing adjunct to chiropractic treatments for CTS: nerve flossing.
Some doctors thrive in a personality-based clinic and have a loyal following no matter what services or equipment they offer, but for most chiropractic offices who are trying to grow and expand, new equipment purchases help us stay relevant and continue to service our client base in the best, most up-to-date manner possible. So, regarding equipment purchasing: should you lease, get a bank loan, or pay cash?
