History and Training of a Chiropractor

The word “Chiropractic” is derived from the Greek words “cheir” (hand) and “paktos” (done), combined to mean “done by hand.” It was chosen by the developer of chiropractic care, Daniel David Palmer. In 1895, Mr. Palmer performed a chiropractic adjustment on a partially deaf janitor, Harvey Lillard, who later reported that his hearing had improved due to the adjustment. 

Mr. Palmer opened the first chiropractic school two years later, and in the century since, chiropractic professionals have used spinal adjustments to help people prevent and cope with back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, muscle strains, headaches, and a variety of other physical ailments. Millions of people benefit from the work of Dr. Palmer today. 

Today, chiropractic doctors go through a minimum of four years of schooling at a chiropractic college, generally preceded by an undergraduate degree in the basic sciences or several years of experience in a prior relevant health care field. 

Students of chiropractic care must spend a minimum of at least 4,200 hours with their teacher, and a minimum of 1,000 hours of fully supervised clinical training with an instructor as they learn the appropriate diagnosis and treatment techniques to help heal your body and restore it to its natural, fully functioning state.
