What Can YOU Do?

There is one point that I would like to make to every chiropractor in the world. Being a member of a recent strategic planning meeting of the American Chiropractic Association (ACA) has made me more aware than ever of the necessity of all DCs to have a national voice. I'd like to urge all DCs in the world to belong to some national organization!

Of course, neither the ACA nor the International Chiropractors Association (ICA) do everything we like. But those of you who are not ICA or ACA members had better wake up and begin to realize all the benefits we've achieved are the result of national representation through the years.

This decade is going to be the most crucial in our history. Don't ask, "What can the ACA/ICA do for me?" Ask, "What can I do for the ICA/ACA?" For, having that national voice is indispensable to our very professional life! And this is true in every country.

Court Rules Against No-Fault Insurers - Again
Court Rules Against No-Fault Insurers - Again

New York's highest court of appeals has held that no-fault insurers cannot deny no-fault benefits where they unilaterally determine that a provider has committed misconduct based upon alleged fraudulent conduct. The Court held that this authority belongs solely to state regulators, specifically New York's Board of Regents, which oversees professional licensing and discipline. This follows a similar recent ruling in Florida reported in this publication.

Gaze Stabilization: Clinical Relevance for DCs
Gaze Stabilization: Clinical Relevance for DCs

Keeping our eyes smoothly focused while moving is no simple task because even the simple act of running produces head velocities in excess of 550° per second with head accelerations up to 6,000° per second. Failure to properly stabilize our eyes to compensate for rapid head motion could allow our eyes to over- or undershoot specific targets, which can result in blurred vision, nausea, impaired balance, and a greatly increased risk of falling.
