If there is any one individual who stands out in the saga of the early growth and development of the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College, it must be Albert Earl Homewood (1916-1990). His contributions included steering the institution through the lean 1950s, coping with the metropolitan transit authorities' devastating incursion upon the first c...
He dwelt within the chiropractic orbit from the cradle to the grave. Second-generation chiropractor Tom Lawrence was a successful professional and family man who followed in his father's footsteps and fought the good fight to improve chiropractic within his state and nation. His passing closes a chapter of living memory of the middle years of the f...
Subluxation syndrome is a legitimate, potentially testable, theoretical construct for which there is little experimental evidence. Acceptable as hypothesis, the widespread assertion of the clinical meaningfulness of this notion brings ridicule from the scientific and health care communities and confusion within the chiropractic profession. We belie...
In its 94 years the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic (LACC) has occupied at least nine main campuses, exclusive of "satellite" facilities and the campuses of the dozen or more schools which have amalgamated with the LACC over the years. The longest serving of these properties have been in Glendale (1950-1981), Whittier (1981-present), and on Ven...
WHY CHIROPRACTIC HISTORY?
With all the study demands to learn the basic sciences which weigh upon the new chiropractic student, you may well wonder where you will find the time to learn the history of your chosen profession. After all, it’s all behind us now! And yet, if we wish to under- stand philosophy in chiropractic, it will help to know how t...
John J. Nugent, D.C. is remembered by many as either the “Abraham Flexner of Chiropractic” or the “anti-Christ of Chiropractic.” From 1941 until his forced retirement in 1959, the Irish-born Palmer graduate was one of the most important factors in the profession's educational reforms. Yet Nugent's work as the National Chiropractic Association's (NC...
Chiropractors' manual methods of healing have diverse origins. Unlike the older traditions of bonesetters, chiropractors apply their techniques to health problems beyond the musculoskeletal system. The ideas of the Palmers were seminal, but innovation has been a prominent characteristic in the evolution of technique, and borrowing of methods betwee...
Chiropractic education in the northwestern United States has its origins in the Marsh School & Cure in 1904. Most of the early schools were located in Portland, Oregon, including the D.D. Palmer College of Chiropractic (1908-1910), and several of these had merged by 1912 or 1913 to form the Pacific Chiropractic College, forerunner of today's Wester...
To determine the presence or absence of claims for the clinical art of chiropractic that are not currently justified by available scientific evidence or are intrinsically untestable.
A survey of patient education and promotional material produced by national, state, and provincial societies and research agencies in Canada and the United States.

This paper provides a cursory overview of attempts to discover, preserve and disseminate the history of the chiropractic profession, up to and including the organization of the Association for the History of Chiropractic (AHC). A surprisingly wide range of materials have been available for many decades, but sustained efforts at historical scholarsh...
To investigate the interexaminer reliability of the prone extended relative leg-length check as described by Activator Methods, Inc.
Thirty-four subjects were selected from a pool of 52 consecutive patients visiting a private chiropractic office.
Exclusion criteria included congenital or acquired conditions known to affect lower extremity length an...
Two previous reports have summarized the content, institutional affiliations, academic training and funding sources for articles published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics (JMPT) from 1978-1986 and 1987-1988.

The American Chiropractic Association (ACA) of the 1920s is an ancestor of today's ACA. Established in 1922 as an alternative to B.J. Palmer's protective society, the Universal Chiropractors' Association (UCA), the ACA floundered under its first administration, but found its way when Frank R. Margetts, D.D., LL.D., D.C. was elected its second presi...
Born in 1902 to the earliest chiropractor known to practice in Canada, Joshua Norman Haldeman would develop national and international stature as a political economist, provincial and national professional leader, and sportsman/adventurer. A 1926 graduate of the Palmer School of Chiropractic, he would maintain a lifelong friendship with B.J. Palmer...

... Most sources date the birth of chiropractic as September 18, 1895; 17 it was a period in healthcare that Keating has described "… as consisting of a smorgasbord of competing theories, practitioners, potions and schemes." 18 Well trained doctors were extremely scarce (with the exception of urban areas) with most so called physicians having little or no formal training. Hospitals were even scarcer than doctors, and were seen as places of doom where the terminally ill went to die. ...

... This approach redefined disease as an effect, in this case caused by the displacement of anatomic parts, rather than an entity in and of itself. 47 Palmer expanded on this concept by stating that the "science" of chiropractic was "founded on [correct] tone and any deviation therefrom is disease." 48 In his writings before his death, Palmer advocated that tone embodied the physical and spiritual realms, so it was the "moral and religious duty" of the chiropractor to ensure proper tone in order to improve the "indwelling portion of the Eternal [ie, Innate] in our care." ...
... In Portland, Oregon, he founded the D. D. Palmer College of Chiropractic in 1908, which he operated until 1910. That college outlived D. D. to become one of the several schools that merged together to become Western States Chiropractic College (Keating, 2002). In October 1913, D. D. died from typhoid fever (Palmer College of Chiropractic, 2016). ...

... Cyrus Lerner was an attorney commissioned to examine the chiropractic profession with a view to improving its image in the mid-20th century [135]. He produced a report realistically portraying what he found, and the report was buried [136]. In it he noted that chiropractic offered 'highly questionable evidence' regarding 'nerve impulses' and that 'Nearly all the writings examined on the "Story of Chiropractic" gave the feeling of one wandering through a fog' [135]. ...
... 97 Beginning in 1923, the basic science laws required that candidates for licensure in medicine, osteopathy, chiropractic, and naturopathy must pass examinations in preclinical topics common to all health professions, such as chemistry and physiology. 93,98 The argument was that if a candidate could successfully complete the basic science examination, he or she would be allowed to take a following examination by a separate professional board to license practitioners in each particular field. 90 Some claimed that the basic science laws were an additional attempt by the AMA to keep non-medical practitioners, including chiropractors, from practicing lawfully. ...
... The TPS is the focus of this discussion. DD Palmer, who 'discovered' chiropractic in 1895 proposed that 95% of all disease (dis-ease) was due to subluxations of the spine and that the remaining 5% was caused by subluxations of the extremities, particularly the joints of the feet [68]. DD and his son BJ Palmer hypothesized that the chiropractic vertebral subluxation differed from the medical "subluxation" in that it interfered with the transmission of Innate Intelligence (a fraction of Universal Intelligence) [69], independent of what has come to be recognized as the action potential. ...
... 83,[129][130][131] For example, Charlton and Keating relied on this literature in their critiques. 83,130,132 Some of the citation patterns in more recent calls to dismiss CVS as an historical artifact can be traced to the early papers, which relied on reliability studies to support their arguments. 130,133,134 In 2009, Holt and Russell reported that extensive training of examiners increased reliability for the classic chiropractic leg length inequality examination. ...
... Some authors distinguish a CR from a case study, the latter of which has detailed measurements over time [3]. There are few bibliometric reviews of chiropractic research and these have typically focused on publications within a single journal [4][5][6][7][8]. The most recent and comprehensive bibliometric study of peer-reviewed chiropractic CRs was published in 1993 and identified 318 CRs [9]. ...

(5,(20)(21)(22)(23) Energy healing techniques have been used by various cultures for thousands of years. Many cultures have a concept of vital energy (including the Indian term prana, the Chinese term chi, and the Japanese term qi). ...
