Join the Discussion on ChiroWeb
Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

As we go to press, over 1,000 doctors of chiropractic have registered to participate on ChiroWeb's DCs Only Forum (our online discussion forum for DCs only). This number represents a more-than-400% increase since ChiroWeb switched to a password-based registration system for its discussion forums in October.

We encourage you to register to join the DCs Only Forum at your earliest convenience. To register, click on the "Discussion Forums" box on ChiroWeb's homepage. That will take you to a list of forums, the first being the DCs Only Forum. If you haven't already registered, you must click on the "Start Here" link. That takes you to a screen where you'll enter your personal ID and password that was provided to you on the front page of the November 15, 1999 issue of DC. If you do not have that issue or have questions about registering for the discussion forums, please contact us at ubbadmin@dcmedia.com.

Should You Use Cash, Loan or Lease for Equipment Purchases?
Should You Use Cash, Loan or Lease for Equipment Purchases?

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?

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.
