As a practitioner, you know foot pain should be addressed as soon as possible, as pain in one or both feet can potentially lead to impairment of foot function. But rather than treating foot pain with over-the-counter pain and anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen, or prescription nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or even corticosteroid injections for chronic foot pain, why not try red light / infrared therapy?

Chiropractic Philosophy According To NACM?
In a recent communication to selected members of the chiropractic profession, Ronald L. Slaughter, DC, chairman of the National Association of Chiropractic Medicine (also known as the Orthopractic Manipulation Society) made this comment about chiropractic philosophy:
"'Chiropractic' is a (failed) healthcare philosophy. Failed because _nobody_ except some chiropractors believe in it." (emphasis and comment belong to Dr. Slaughter)Perhaps someone should enlighten Dr. Slaughter and the other few members of the NACM/orthopractic group that patients also choose the chiropractic philosophy over the medical philosophy. What do you think?
