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."
Two More Stores on Chiromall.com
Two more stores recently opened on ChiroMall: Current Events Associates (CEA) and Petty, Michel & Associates.
The Current Events Associates store offers state-approved continuing education programs. CEA has been providing the chiropractic profession with personal and professional enrichment programs since 1987.
Petty, Michel & Associates offers a unique Marketing Manager System that is the culmination of 18 years of working with doctors. The CD program integrates with all other marketing and practice-building programs.
ChiroMall (www.ChiroMall.com) is an online shopping mall specifically for doctors of chiropractic; it allows you to find all of the products and services you need from preferred chiropractic suppliers. The mall consists of individual "stores" that currently offer almost 700 products, services and seminars especially for DCs. Each store is operated by that company and interacts directly with the DC at all times.
Because ChiroMall is a secure mall exclusively for doctors of chiropractic, the online stores can offer DCs special pricing, online-only discounts and guaranteed lowest prices not available to the general public. This makes ChiroMall the place to go to make price comparisons before buying anything for your practice.
ChiroMall also features monthly "Online Specials" (found at www.ChiroMall.com/specials). The Online Specials page does not require a user ID or password to view the products offered at special online prices and the percentage discount over the retail price. (Please note that the items offered at these special prices change monthly.)
A monthly e-mail newsletter is also available that alerts DCs to products, services and seminars offered at special prices. As these prices are not normally available elsewhere, DCs who have entered ChiroMall will automatically be kept abreast of the lowest prices.
