Happy Birthday, Chiropractic!!! π₯³π₯³
Happy birthday to the profession of chiropractic! September 18th, 1895 was the day on which Daniel David (D.D.) Palmer performed the first chiropractic adjustment on Harbey Lillard. It is said that Mr. Lillard got his hearing back after that adjustment.
βOn Sept. 18, 1895, Harvey Lillard called upon me. He was so deaf for seventeen years that he could not hear the noises on the street. Mr. Lillard informed me that he was in a cramed position and felt something give in his back. I replaced the displaced 4th dorsal vertebrae by one move, with restored his hearing fully.β - D.D. Palmer
