Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic is the
second-largest
licensed
healing profession in the world.
The combination of science,
art,
philosophy
and clinical experience has created
an enduring foundation for a
unique
approach
in health care.
Our
purpose:
Optimize patient health;
Provide the highest quality
care;
Work in
cooperation with all other health care professionals .
Patient
Care
The best care for you is
based on a
Diagnosis ...a recognition of the
nature and causes of your complaints.
Patient history, physical
examination,
radiographic
procedures and referrals are utilized.
Most patients require joint
manipulation
for problems of the spinal column and extremities with any related
neurologic
or body system function manifestations.
Modalities, supports, vitamins
& orthotics may be utilized.
Our habits of living
and the environment
profoundly affect our health.
Health Promotion requires active patient involvement for
postural improvement, appropriate exercise and diet modification
.
What
Should You Do If You
Hurt
Your Back?
We
suggest you see a chiropractor and/or medical physician as
soon
as possible to determine the best treatment.
Current Clinical Studies
A
four-year
2004
study
recently published in the
Archives of Internal Medicine
(Vol. 164, October 11, 2004), the professional journal of the American
Medical
Association, reports significantly lower costs and better outcomes
among
patients who have access to chiropractic treatment for back pain.
The
study, believed
to be the
largest of
its kind, compared 1 million members
of a managed health plan who
had no coverage for chiropractic care to
700,000 members of the plan with coverage for
chiropractic treatment.
Back
pain
patients with chiropractic insurance coverage were found to
have
reduced hospitalizations, fewer MRIs, a lower rate of back surgery
and fewer radiographs.
The cost of treatment for patients with
chiropractic coverage was 28 per cent lower
than the cost of care for
back pain sufferers with no chiropractic coverage.

Chiropractic
in the Health Care System
Practice
of the Profession in Canada
Every
province in
Canada
has
its own Chiropractic Act governing the practice of the profession.
Chiropractic
is a self-governing profession, each provincial regulatory body having
the authority to grant a licence to practise chiropractic. The
self-disciplining
and regulatory process includes extensive testing, peer review
programs,
continuing education requirements and the disciplining of practitioners
who fail to meet recognized standards of provincial licensing bodies.
In
all provinces, requirements include:
1)
completion of a
minimum
of three years at a university in Canada, or its equivalent.
A
majority
of applicants possess a university degree when applying.
2)
graduation from a
four
year professional degree accredited chiropractic program,
3)
passing scores on
National
Examinations administered by the Canadian Chiropractic
Examining
Board, and
4)
passing scores on Provincial Licensing Examinations
.
A
New
Partnership: Chiropractors and Physicians
There
is a growing
trend
towards
cooperation between medical physicians and chiropractors.
Evidence of
this
is shown, for example,
in the increasing number of medical
and chiropractic
practices
in
the
same health centres,
with close cooperation, referral and sometimes
full
and formal partnership.
As more physicians recognize chiropractic's valuable place in the
health care system,
the trend towards chiropractic referral is expected to continue to grow
.
What
is the Difference Between Physicians and Chiropractors?
It's
similar to the
difference
between a physician and a dentist: they are
different professions
within
the health care spectrum.
Both chiropractors and medical physicians
are legally entitled to use the title "doctor".
As the appellation
MD means
"Doctor of
Medicine", so DC
means "Doctor
of
Chiropractic".
Click
for an
excerpt from the Ontario Health Professions Act, Section 33.
The
role of
chiropractic
is
complementary to other areas of primary health care. Chiropractic is
not,
for example, a replacement for medical care. Recognition by health
science
that many illnesses of our modern society are lifestyle based has shown
us that we, as individuals, can influence our own health and well
being.
Many people, therefore, welcome chiropractic's emphasis on preventative
measures to optimize health and well-being.
