Dynamic Chiropractic has served as the international forum of the chiropractic profession for almost eight years. Unfortunately, it has not been possible to editorially address every concern. Much of the time, issues have arisen that were not necessarily international in scope, but were more regional in nature.
In a continuing effort to serve the worldwide chiropractic profession on every level, Dynamic Chiropractic is proud to announce our new "regional forums."
The first two regional forums will be The International Forum and The California Forum. These two forums will be additional sections of Dynamic Chiropractic and will only be seen by those chiropractors and students in those regions.
The International Forum will be included in the issues of Dynamic Chiropractic that are mailed to all doctors and students of chiropractic outside of North America. This will include news items, articles, and advertising specifically for the chiropractic profession in Europe, Australia, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Central and South America.
In order to facilitate this new regional forum format, Dynamic Chiropractic will now be mailed on two different schedules. One issue per month will be mailed to every chiropractor, chiropractic student, and chiropractic supplier in the world. This issue will include The International Forum. The other issues will be mailed only to the chiropractic profession in North America.
Beginning with the September 12, 1990 issue, Dynamic Chiropractic will inaugurate The California Forum. This section will only be included in those issues of "DC" mailed to chiropractors, students, and suppliers in California. This section will be a forum for those issues and concerns exclusive to chiropractic in California.
This new regional forum format will better enable the chiropractic profession to grow both internationally and regionally. Be looking for additional regional forums to include Canada and other areas of the United States.
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?
