With the anticipation of the fast approaching chiropractic centennial, memorabilia is already flourishing. Sales of new, limited edition Centennial pins have become a hot item.
The Centennial pins are made through a process called cloisonne, a beautiful kind of enamelware. The surface decoration is formed by different vibrant colors of enamel separated by thin strips of metal set on the edge. The pins are sealed with a fired-on, high-luster lacquer finish to keep their good looks.

There are many collector pins to choose from: the Davenport Celebration, the Washington Celebration, the Official Centennial Celebration logo, the Chiropractic Rose Parade Float, and the Founders' pin, with D.D. and B.J., of course. There will be state pins, available individually or as a set, and the chiropractic college pins, each one featuring the college's emblem, and also available individually or as a set. All pin sets come with a display case at no extra cost.
"I'll Trade You a Rose Parade for a BJ"
Swapping pins, which is half the fun, is sure to be an active centennial sport during the entire Centennial year. It's a great way to meet chiropractors and those involved with chiropractic from all over the world. Trading centers will be erected at both Centennial Celebrations (Davenport and Washington D.C.), and at other chiropractic events through the end of 1995.
Unless you want to miss out on all the fun, pin down your set of these beautiful keepsakes while supplies last.
Pins are $9.95 each, plus shipping and handling.
These are limited editions, call 1-800-DC4-1995 to order yours while supplies last.
When sports chiropractors first appeared at the Olympic Games in the 1980s, it was alongside individual athletes who had experienced the benefits of chiropractic care in their training and recovery processes at home. Fast forward to Paris 2024, where chiropractic care was available in the polyclinic for all athletes, and the attitude has now evolved to recognize that “every athlete deserves access to sports chiropractic."
It is estimated that 61% of patients with CTS avoid taking surgical options due to postoperative complications and costly surgical procedures. Chiropractic care offers a comprehensive and effective treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome, addressing the condition from multiple angles. Recent studies also have unveiled a game-changing adjunct to chiropractic treatments for CTS: nerve flossing.
Some doctors thrive in a personality-based clinic and have a loyal following no matter what services or equipment they offer, but for most chiropractic offices who are trying to grow and expand, new equipment purchases help us stay relevant and continue to service our client base in the best, most up-to-date manner possible. So, regarding equipment purchasing: should you lease, get a bank loan, or pay cash?
