President Gregg is ICA "Chiropractor of the Year"

Editorial Staff

Dr. R. James Gregg from Garden City, Michigan, was named the ICA "Chiropractor of the Year" for 1995 at the ICA's annual meeting Sept. 13 in Davenport, Iowa, held this year in conjunction with the Chiropractic Centennial Celebration.

A graduate of Logan College of Chiropractic, Dr. Gregg was elected ICA president in 1991, and is now serving his last term. For many years a member of the Michigan Chiropractic Board of Examiners, Dr. Gregg is the chief of the dept. of chiropractic at New Center Hospital in Michigan, and is on the hospital's executive committee.

The ICA credits Dr. Gregg with helping the organization to "new heights of professionalism and interprofessional cooperation." Dr. Gregg is regarded as a dynamic speaker of chiropractic philosophy, practice management, and hospital privileges.

In an emotional speech, Dr. Gregg said he was deeply moved by the honor, especially during this historic year for chiropractic. He vowed to continue to serve the association and profession and to seek greater recognition for chiropractic.

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.

Whiplash-Associated Disorder: Use of O’Donoghue’s Maneuver

Recently, I taught a 12-hour whiplash class to a group of chiropractors for continuing education. I taught that performing O’Donoghue’s maneuver enabled the providers to differentiate cervical strain from sprain. To my surprise, one of the attendees stated that it is not possible to diagnose a cervical strain and sprain with a whiplashed patient using O’Donoghue’s maneuver.
