happy family

The first chiropractic clinic was founded by the creator of the technique, D.D. Palmer, in 1898. He had developed techniques after speaking to a janitor in his office and drawing a connection between the man's loss of hearing and the misaligned vertebrae in his back. Though Palmer's methods proved effective and his clinic continued to draw students, chiropractic studies remained in the realm of alternative medicine for nearly a century. Some early chiropractors were arrested for practicing medicine without a license, and Palmer's son B.J. was constantly forced to defend his father's techniques from attacks by more established medical practitioners.

Chiropractic clinics continued to gain respect and patients, but the real turning point came in 1975. At a medical conference in Bethesda, Maryland, Dr. Joseph Janse provided an overview of the practice's history.

From there, many hypotheses were developed about chiropractic techniques, and research was conducted to find support for them. This brought a great deal of respect and recognition to the discipline.

Find Chiropractic Clinics That Balance Traditional Medicine and Alternative Techniques

Today, these offices work alongside different types of medicine to aid their patients. Certain chiropractors will mix their techniques with more traditional forms of medicine or with alternate medicines like acupuncture. In some cases, a chiropractor may direct patients to a different medical expert, but clinics are preferable in a number of cases because they don't involve drugs or surgery. That can simplify patients' lives in some instances and avoid the complications caused by more invasive medical techniques. The Winter Park, Florida chiropractic clinic of Racine Chiropractic & Wellness Center offers services to treat a number of ailments.
