Chiropractic is celebrating its 130th birthday, marking over a century of advancing health through spinal care and holistic wellness. Since its founding in 1895 by Daniel David Palmer.
Here are some fun facts about chiropractic:
The very first chiropractic adjustment was performed by D.D. Palmer on a janitor who reportedly regained his hearing after the treatment.
Chiropractic is the third largest healthcare profession in the United States, after medicine and dentistry.
The word “chiropractic” comes from the Greek words cheir (hand) and praktikos (practical), meaning “done by hand.”
Chiropractic care is recognized in over 100 countries worldwide, with millions of patients benefiting from its drug-free, non-invasive approach.
Research shows chiropractic adjustments can help with back pain, neck pain, headaches, and even improve overall well-being.
Happy Birthday to Chiropractic! 🎉🎈🎊
