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 Centennial Begins Receiving Individual Sponsorships
Dr. William F. Holmberg, president of the Chiropractic Centennial Foundation (CCF), has made the first individual DC sponsorship donation to the CCF.
Dr. Holmberg made a $1,000 donation to the CCF and encourages other DCs to do the same. "It's all part of giving something back to a profession that has given us so much," said Dr. Holmberg.
"Dr. Holmberg is the perfect person to be the first sponsor," said Rick Flaherty, chair of the sponsorship and donations committee for the CCF. "As president of the CCF he is setting an excellent example."
There are six levels of DC sponsorships ranging from the $25,000 Elite Club Super Sponsor level to the $500 Ruby Club Sponsor.
