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.
North Carolina Researches Feasibility of New Chiropractic College
The Legislative Research Commission (LRC) of the state of North Carolina has created a Chiropractic College Study Committee within the LRC's Health and Human Resources Study Grouping. The LRC has allocated $25,000 to the College Study Committee to investigate the need and feasibility of establishing a chiropractic college in North Carolina.
If it is decided that a chiropractic college is needed and its establishment is feasible, the best method(s) of accomplishing that end, including most economical and advantageous placement of such a college within the University of North Carolina, will be investigated.
The committee has agreed to use consultant services in its study, and will report its findings and recommendations to the LRC no later than January 6th.
