History

The word “Chiropractic” is taken from Greek, meaning, “Done by Hand”. Many cultures have used some form of physical manipulation in healing, including the Ancient Egyptians, Classical Greeks, Amerindians, Chinese, and Africans. Some of the earliest healers in the history of the world understood the relationship between health and the condition of the spine.

The actual profession of chiropractic dates back to 1895 when Daniel D. Palmer had the “big idea” that good health can be sustained naturally, without drugs or surgery, through chiropractic care.

The 20th Century has seen the growth and development of Chiropractic worldwide, gaining both recognition and respect from all areas of modern medicine. Extensive research has underpinned the development of this profession. Today, chiropractic is the second largest licensed health care profession.
