Foot Levelers' first Countdown '93 seminar, held July 10-11, 1993 in Davenport, Iowa was a major success.
Fifty percent of the proceeds from the well-attended event will benefit the chiropractic colleges and 50 percent will benefit the CCF.
Those attending the first Countdown '93 seminar enjoyed three of chiropractic's most renowned lecturers: John K. Hyland, DC, DABCO, DACBR ("Biomechanics and Rehab"); Paul Jaskoviak, DC, DACAN, FICC, ("Physical Therapy"); and Kenneth J. Murkowski, DC, FICA, ("Insurance Procedures"). In addition, Monte H. Greenawalt, DC, DABCO, provided hands-on instruction during an early bird seminar.
Dr. William F. Holmberg spoke briefly to attendees prior to showing a special video prepared by the CCF regarding the Grand Celebration in 1995.
"The support of companies like Foot Levelers is essential to the CCF reaching its goal," said Dr. Holmberg. "We cannot thank Dr. Monte and Kent Greenawalt enough for their support and enthusiasm for the chiropractic profession."
The regional series of seminars continues through November 1993 as follows:
Kansas City, MO -- August 21-22
Atlanta, GA -- September 25-26
St. Louis, MO -- October 2-3

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?
