Password-Protected Forums Coming to Chiroweb

Editorial Staff

With well over 800,000 hits per month, Chiroweb.com is attracting doctors of chiropractic, chiropractic students and consumers to the over 40 discussion forums. And while most of the posted messages on the chiropractic forums involve discussion and interaction between DCs, there is the possibility that consumers can enter these forums.

For this reason, Dynamic Chiropractic is finalizing the specifications for a new security system. This new system will restrict access to chiropractic forums so that only DCs can enter. While it will still allow DCs to maintain their anonymity by using pseudonyms, it will encourage a greater atmosphere of professionalism.

Dynamic Chiropractic is committed to providing you the best the internet has to offer. Look for more news on updates to chiroweb.com in future issues of DC.

The Romberg test is a neurological procedure used to assess balance and can be used to gauge a patient’s risk of falling. Unfortunately, the test itself is a fall risk. The fall risk is not huge, and falls are not frequent. However, I have encountered a few situations that have influenced how I use and teach the test.

A Chiropractic Therapist Profession in the United States?
A Chiropractic Therapist Profession in the United States?

Sadly, Japan now has over 12,000 chiropractic therapists (Zenkenkai/JCA chiropractors), dramatically outnumbering the fewer than 700 DCs who have graduated from accredited chiropractic educational programs. These chiropractic therapists have a clear economic and political advantage that makes appropriate chiropractic legislation nearly impossible. What if this same thing happenened in the U.S.?
