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:

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.
The Romberg test is a neurological procedure used to assess balance and can be used to gauge a patient’s risk of falling. Unfortunately, the test itself is a fall risk. The fall risk is not huge, and falls are not frequent. However, I have encountered a few situations that have influenced how I use and teach the test.
Sadly, Japan now has over 12,000 chiropractic therapists (Zenkenkai/JCA chiropractors), dramatically outnumbering the fewer than 700 DCs who have graduated from accredited chiropractic educational programs. These chiropractic therapists have a clear economic and political advantage that makes appropriate chiropractic legislation nearly impossible. What if this same thing happenened in the U.S.?
