The former Tidewater Chiropractic Association, headquartered in Hampton Roads, Virginia, was renamed Hampton Roads Chiropractic Association (HRCA) during a recent monthly membership meeting. The HRCA designed and adopted a new logo as well.
The new name is an accurate geographic description of the HRCA's service area. The association's members practice in a region that stretches from Virginia Beach to Williamsburg.
HRCA president Robert B. Thoma, D.C. announced that the association has named Brickell & Associates as its public relations agency.

The HRCA's public relations efforts will emphasize and promote educational advancement of its own members and the community through internal initiatives and programs for the general public.
