Chiroweb Adds Student Section

Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

In its continuing effort to become the most complete chiropractic resource on the World Wide Web, Chiroweb has added the Chiropractic School DaZe section to its website. School DaZe, sponsored by the National Chiropractic Mutual Insurance Company, provides valuable information for chiropractic students and students-to-be.

School DaZe is divided into several sections for easy access. For instance, the Job Board, a free service of Chiroweb, helps students find an associate position and lets DCs and students post job information. The International Chiropractic Colleges Directory provides links to many college websites, plus addresses and telephone/fax numbers. And the Chat Room offers a forum for chiropractic students around the world to meet, interact and share ideas.

School DaZe also contains an e-mail address where students can ask questions or request more current information on colleges. You can access School Daze from Chiroweb via the For Chiros Only section; you can also enter it directly at [url=http://www.chiroweb.com/SchoolDaze/]http://www.chiroweb.com/SchoolDaze/[/url].

Whether you're already in-network or pondering whether to join, here's what you need to know.

Squaring the Geriatric Curve
Squaring the Geriatric Curve

The geriatric curve – the progressive decline in our health, fitness, mental capacity, and overall constitution – graphically appears as a downward sloping line over time. It is a culmination of the effects of sarcopenia, postural deterioration, frailty, and chronic noncommunicable diseases that occur as we age. While aging cannot be reversed, the goal is to reduce the negative slope or “square off” the curve, thus avoiding a steady decline in health. Here are five ways to get your patients started.

How Chiropractors Can Make It the Best of Times
The Best of Times, the Worst of Times

Imagine an environment in which DCs are tightly integrated with their local healthcare system; a trusted resource for PCPs, specialists and self-insured employers; are reimbursed in alignment with value created; use modern technology enabling them to fully engage with their patients; are self-governed; and are able to maintain a fulfilling work-life balance. In the final part of this three-part series, we explore three areas for chiropractors to focus on to leave the current foolishness behind and create “the best of times” for DCs and their patients.
