HealthGrades.com (www.healthgrades.com ) is the largest health care directory website on the internet, with over 64,000 visits per week. The website provides consumers with reliable directories and rating information on hospitals; physicians; health plans; mammography facilities; fertility clinics; nursing homes and assisted living residences. HealthGrades has now added a complete directory of over 60,000 doctors of chiropractic, including each doctor's name, address, phone number and a map to the doctor's office.
The inclusion of chiropractic on the HealthGrades site is the result of an agreement with Dynamic Chiropractic. Healthgrades will use DC's chiropractic database, which was recently verified against lists of licensed doctors of chiropractic from state licensing boards. HealthGrades' users will also have access to over 600 pages of information on chiropractic that will be provided by Dynamic Chiropractic's website, ChiroWeb.com. This section will continue to grow as additional chiropractic information and research are published.
The inclusion of the chiropractor directory will provide more exposure for each doctor of chiropractic. Through special alliances, HealthGrades enjoys traffic from such well-known internet sites as: iVillage.com, OnHealth.com, Newsweek.com, WashingtonPost.com, HealthAnswers.com and many others. Not only will consumers be able to access information on chiropractors near them, but other health care providers are expected to use Healthgrades' chiropractic directory.
To verify your information on HealthGrades.com, please go to www.HealthGrades.com and select the "Chiropractor Directory." Search for your listing by zip code, selecting a 5-mile radius. Once you locate your listing, please review the information as provided. Should there be any modifications needed to your record, you may e-mail them to the database administrator at list@dcmedia.com.
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.

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?
