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?
First Chiropractic Residency Program at VA Hospital
New York Chiropractic College (NYCC) recently announced it has partnered with the Canandaigua VA Medical Center in Canandaigua, N.Y., to create an integrated care chiropractic residency program – the first such program to be established at a Veterans Administration health care facility, according to the college.
NYCC residents will work alongside VA providers and experience rotations with specialists in neurology, orthopedics, physiatry, pain management, primary care and physical therapy at the medical center. NYCC has an existing relationship with Canandaigua VAMC; it operates several academic and research programs at the center.
