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.
ChiroWeb Wins Another Award
A good way to measure success on the Internet is the number of visits a website receives. Since undergoing a major revision in January, Dynamic Chiropractic's website ([url=http://www.chiroweb.com]http://www.chiroweb.com[/url]) has become one of the most frequented chiropractic resources on the Internet, surpassing 20,000 visits in one month for the first time (see front page of the July 27 issue).
ChiroWeb has just been honored by the Key Resource award from Links2Go, a service that links thousands of related websites, reviews them and categorizes them by topic. ChiroWeb is now one of only 12 chiropractic websites on the Internet to have received the Key Resource award.
According to Links2Go, the Key Resource award is "both exclusive and objective. Fewer than one page in one thousand will ever be selected for inclusion ... unlike most awards that rely on the subjective opinion of 'experts,' many of whom have only looked at tens or hundreds of thousands of pages in bestowing their awards, the Links2Go Key Resource Award is completely objective and is based on an analysis of millions of web pages."
The Key Resource award is the fifth website award for DC's ChiorWeb. Among ChiroWeb's awards are the Health Explorer Best Site and the NetGuide Gold Site award.
