As a practitioner, you know foot pain should be addressed as soon as possible, as pain in one or both feet can potentially lead to impairment of foot function. But rather than treating foot pain with over-the-counter pain and anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen, or prescription nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or even corticosteroid injections for chronic foot pain, why not try red light / infrared therapy?
ICA and ACA Adopt Positions Against Using Research to Recruit Patients
While there are many issues over which the American Chiropractic Association (ACA) and the International Chiropractors' Association (ICA) disagree, the use of research to recruit patients is not one of them. In an almost unprecedented event, both associations independently established their own positions against this type of program.
Both the ACA and the ICA established their positions against research/recruitment during their respective board meetings in the month of October, only three weeks apart!
Each position is presented separately. Please read how a single issue (internal or external) can cause two distinctly different organizations to unite in purpose.
