Journal of Sports Chiropractic and Rehabilitation Discontinued

Editorial Staff

The ACA Council on Sports Injuries and Physical Fitness recently announced that it will discontinue publication of its peer-reviewed journal, the Journal of Sports Chiropractic and Rehabilitation (JSCR).

"It is terribly unfortunate that we must postpone indefinitely the publication of the JSCR," lamented Tim Ray,DC,DACBSP, president of the ACA Sports Council. "This is the only journal dedicated to the specialties of sports chiropractic and rehabilitation, but our financial situation prohibits continuing the publication for the time being."

Dr. Ray commended the JSCR editors, Drs. Bart Green and Claire Johnson, for their hard work to improve the quality and credibility of the journal.

The council hopes to resolve the publication's financial situation within a year and investigate the possibility of resuming publication.

Would You Rather Be a Chiropractic Therapist?

Because they have yet to pass national legislation protecting the chiropractic profession, Japanese DCs are in a similar situation that U.S. DCs faced. We were fortunate enough to be able to pass chiropractic licensure state by state. The DCs in Japan must accomplish this nationally, which has proved to be an extremely difficult task. And in spite of their efforts, Japanese DCs are currently faced with two chiropractic professions.

Chiropractic at Risk Globally
Chiropractic at Risk Globally

There has long been an attempt by those who are not legitimate doctors of chiropractic to usurp the title of chiropractor from those who have earned their degree from an accredited chiropractic program. This generally happens in countries where the local doctors of chiropractic have yet to pass legislation requiring a degree from an accredited institution. The result is essentially two chiropractic professions. Nowhere is this danger more pronounced than in Japan.
