Back pain? Blame the psoas. Seems as if everybody wants to dive headfirst into their psoas at the first sign of trouble with the lumbopelvic-hip region. Perhaps no other muscle is blamed more for causing problems than the psoas. Yes, it is an important stabilizer of the lumbar spine, but it shouldn't be the only one on which you focus. There is another big player on the scene: the iliacus.
WCA President under Investigation for Unprofessional Conduct
In their January 14, 1993 meeting, the Arizona Board of Chiropractic Examiners voted 4-1 to issue a complaint and a notice of hearing separately to Terry Rondberg, D.C., and Alan Immerman, D.C. According to the Board minutes:
"The Board reviewed the investigative records obtained from the Maricopa County Attorney's office on their investigation, and the subsequent civil settlements, of Dr. Immerman's and Dr. Rondberg's involvement in the campaign financing matter commonly referred to as AzSCAM."The Board discussed their concerns that none of the statements or interviews conducted in the investigation of this matter had been under oath. Members of the Board expressed belief that Dr. Immerman and Dr. Rondberg would not have agreed to the civil fines imposed if there had not been misconduct on their parts. Dr. Badge commented on the high national visibility of the two doctors, and the resulting need that the Board establish a record on the matter.
"Mrs. Lubin moved that Dr. Immerman and Dr. Rondberg be issued separate Complaints and Notices of Hearing; the issue being whether Dr. Immerman's and Dr. Rondberg's involvement constituted unprofessional conduct."
