The Foundation for Chiropractic Progress (F4CP), which began its advertising campaign in July with regional ads in four of the most widely read publications in the U.S., is now running national ads that will reach more than 12 million subscribers in the next five months. The advertisements, designed to emphasize the value of chiropractic to the public, will again feature outspoken chiropractic advocate Sarah Harding, Ms. Fitness USA 2006. The publication schedule for the national ad spots is as follows:
| Publication | Total Circulation | Issue Date | Date on Newsstands | Editorial Focus |
| Newsweek | 3.1 million | Sept. 18, 2006 | Sept. 11, 2007 | Health for Life |
| Business Week | 950,000 | Oct. 16, 2006 | Oct. 6, 2006 | Focus on Retirement |
| U.S. News & World Report | 2 million | Nov. 6, 2006 | Oct. 30, 2006 | Best Health Plans |
| The New York Times Magazine | 1.7 million | Dec. 3, 2006 | Dec. 3, 2006 | Empowered Living |
| Health | 1.475 million | Jan/Feb 2007 | Jan. 4, 2007 | N/A |
| Newsweek | 3.1 million | Feb. 12, 2007 | Feb. 5, 2007 | N/A |
| Total Combined Circulation: 12.375 million | ||||
Previous advertisements have been seen on a regional basis by subscribers of Newsweek, Sports Illustrated, U.S. News & World Report, and USA Today. As reported previously, because the F4CP has been purchasing advertising space at a considerable discount, it has had little advance notice regarding which issue an ad runs in and what subscribers it reaches. For example, the ad appeared in the July 24, 2006 issue of Newsweek, which reached 967,000 subscribers in 13 states (California, Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, Oregon and Washington); and in the July 31 issue, which reached 628,007 subscribers in the District of Columbia, San Francisco and New York. (Newsweek's total subscriber base is 3.1 million.)

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?
