FCA Reschedules The National

Editorial Staff

The Florida Chiropractic Association (FCA) has rescheduled its signature convention and expo, The National, from its original Aug. 27-30, 2020 date due to rising COVID-19 case counts in Florida and elsewhere over the past several months. As of press time, The National will be held Nov. 5-8, 2020, at the original event location, the Hyatt Regency Orlando.

In making the announcement, the FCA emphasized that a virtual component will also be available for this and future association events to accommodate those who cannot join the event in person: "[F]or those who feel 2020 is too soon to attend any event, we still ask you to join us this year as we offer our first-ever virtual component to conventions. This virtual option will be available with every event for the foreseeable future."

Red Light / Infrared Therapy for Foot Pain
Red Light / Infrared Therapy for Foot Pain

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?
