Should You Use Cash, Loan or Lease for Equipment Purchases?
Should You Use Cash, Loan or Lease for Equipment Purchases?

Chiropractic at Risk Globally
Chiropractic at Risk Globally

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.
