Kentucky Chiropractic Association Announces Release of Pro-Chiropractic License Plate
If you live in Kentucky and are proud about the care you give to your body and to the planet, you can show everyone by purchasing a new specialty license plate. The specialty license plate design contains a spine and growing plant and the slogan, "Go Green Go Chiropractic," all in an attractive mixture or green and white.
"The 'Go Green Go Chiropractic' marketing initiative helps Kentucky chiropractors and patients unite in their efforts to spread awareness of the unique benefits of chiropractic," said the Kentucky Chiropractic Association, Inc. "The license plate makes a statement that we're proud of Kentucky's chiropractors and the people who are treated by and support them. It also will encourage people who see it to find out what Go Green Go Chiropractic is all about."
Sales of the plate benefit the Kentuckiana Children's Center, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to improve the lives of children by providing a foundation for healing through integrative chiropractic care. Jonathan Boggs, legal counsel for the KCA, noted, "The members of the KCA specifically chose not to have any identifying marks on the plate, or to have the donations go to the KCA because the plate isn't just for our members, it is for all chiropractors and chiropractic patients in the Commonwealth of Kentucky, and we hope to spread the 'Go Green Go Chiropractic' initiative worldwide."
If you are a public, private, or governmental chiropractic organization and would like more information on how you can "Go Green Go Chiropractic" in your area, please call 1-(877) 937-3522, e-mail info@kychiropractic.com, go to www.gogreengochiropractic.com or write:

Because they have yet to pass national legislation protecting the chiropractic profession, Japanese DCs are in a similar situation that U.S. DCs faced. We were fortunate enough to be able to pass chiropractic licensure state by state. The DCs in Japan must accomplish this nationally, which has proved to be an extremely difficult task. And in spite of their efforts, Japanese DCs are currently faced with two chiropractic professions.
This article focuses on nine severe injuries that are generally not diagnosable until the third to fourth week following the date of injury, including how to diagnose these severe injuries. The discovery of any of these injuries early can make a significant difference in the case outcome.
There has long been an attempt by those who are not legitimate doctors of chiropractic to usurp the title of chiropractor from those who have earned their degree from an accredited chiropractic program. This generally happens in countries where the local doctors of chiropractic have yet to pass legislation requiring a degree from an accredited institution. The result is essentially two chiropractic professions. Nowhere is this danger more pronounced than in Japan.
