A Gift With a Challenge: NICR Fund Raising Progress Report

Editorial Staff

In the November 6, 1992 issue of "DC," we reported that Dr. William Harris, president and founder of the Foundation for the Advancement of Chiropractic Education (FACE), had donated $100,000 to the National Institute of Chiropractic Research (NICR) for research under way at Arizona State University.

Dr. Harris pledged that if the NICR could raise $100,000 by January
15, 1993, that FACE would give an additional $100,000 to the NICR.

As of November 11, 1992, the NICR has collected $11,000, as
depicted on the barometer graph below.

Contributions may be sent to:

 

National Institute of Chiropractic Research
115 South Royal St., Suite A-52
Alexandria, VA 22314 

 

 

"We still have a long way to go to achieve our goal by the 15th of January. With your help, I know we can do it.

-Dr. Arlan W. Fuhr
President, NICR

Would You Rather Be a Chiropractic Therapist?

Because they have yet to pass national legislation protecting the chiropractic profession, Japanese DCs are in a similar situation that U.S. DCs faced. We were fortunate enough to be able to pass chiropractic licensure state by state. The DCs in Japan must accomplish this nationally, which has proved to be an extremely difficult task. And in spite of their efforts, Japanese DCs are currently faced with two chiropractic professions.

Whiplash-Associated Disorder: Use of O’Donoghue’s Maneuver

Recently, I taught a 12-hour whiplash class to a group of chiropractors for continuing education. I taught that performing O’Donoghue’s maneuver enabled the providers to differentiate cervical strain from sprain. To my surprise, one of the attendees stated that it is not possible to diagnose a cervical strain and sprain with a whiplashed patient using O’Donoghue’s maneuver.
