Chiropractic Goes to Morocco

Editorial Staff

After examination and x-rays of the Royal Family of Morocco, the first chiropractic adjustment was delivered in that kingdom. Morocco, which is located on the northwestern border of North Africa (and was also the home of Casablanca) had formerly been void of the chiropractic profession. Sidi M. Lemnouni, B.S.; D.C., of Atlanta, Georgia, was called upon by the Royal Family to make the examination.

"It was a privilege to deliver this first chiropractic adjustment to the royal family. This is the first step to the opening of Morocco to chiropractic," said Dr. Lemnouni.

Dr. Lemnouni added that he hopes to seek audiences with the governor in order to create a mutual cooperation and understanding of the profession in that country. It is anticipated that neighboring kingdoms will follow Morocco's lead and invite more chiropractors to introduce their field to the people of North Africa.

While not an exhaustive list, here are a few items to contemplate in 2025 as you watch the dollars in your practice.

Biomechanical Bridge: Connecting Hip Mobility to Low Back Health

Research now shows that limited hip internal rotation can significantly contribute to low back pain. This may be caused by hip joint variants, but more commonly by trauma causing adhesion of the hip joint capsule or even prolonged sitting, which overactivates the hip flexors and abductors, and underactivates the hip extensors and adductors.
