The Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC) of Toronto, Ontario held their first annual CMCC Volleyball Classic back in March of 1990. The goal of the event was to promote education, communication, and the development of friendships through competition.
Due to the success of the initial tournament, a second annual was planned. Sixteen invitations went out to chiropractic colleges across North America. CMCC hopes to eventually host all the North American colleges and as many chiropractic colleges as possible from around the world.
The second annual CMCC Invitational Volleyball Classic was held January 17-18 with ten teams participating. Four U.S. colleges were represent: Logan, Northwestern, Palmer, and National Chiropractic.
The tournament began with the ten teams competing in a round robin format. The winners of the round robin met in the playoffs to determine the championship matchup. CMCC and Palmer College met in the finals in a close, intense contest that saw CMCC repeat as the champions of the second annual CMCC Invitational Volleyball Classic.
During and after the competition the players and fans were able to socialize at the local pub and at an eminently fine eatery, where ideas were exchanged and chiropractic philosophies shared.
The 1992 tournament is already being planned, and organizers hope to see even greater participation from U.S. chiropractic colleges.

When sports chiropractors first appeared at the Olympic Games in the 1980s, it was alongside individual athletes who had experienced the benefits of chiropractic care in their training and recovery processes at home. Fast forward to Paris 2024, where chiropractic care was available in the polyclinic for all athletes, and the attitude has now evolved to recognize that “every athlete deserves access to sports chiropractic."
It is estimated that 61% of patients with CTS avoid taking surgical options due to postoperative complications and costly surgical procedures. Chiropractic care offers a comprehensive and effective treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome, addressing the condition from multiple angles. Recent studies also have unveiled a game-changing adjunct to chiropractic treatments for CTS: nerve flossing.
Some doctors thrive in a personality-based clinic and have a loyal following no matter what services or equipment they offer, but for most chiropractic offices who are trying to grow and expand, new equipment purchases help us stay relevant and continue to service our client base in the best, most up-to-date manner possible. So, regarding equipment purchasing: should you lease, get a bank loan, or pay cash?
