Myths Vs. Facts:
Facts: A Chiropractic college grants a D.C. or Doctorate of Chiropractic degree.
- Prior to entering chiropractic college, the aspiring chiropractor is required to complete 2-4 years of pre-med undergraduate studies. Once completed, the student must next complete 4-5 academic years of studies at a chiropractic college. This includes extensive training in anatomy, physiology, pathology, neurology, radiology, differential diagnosis, chiropractic adjustive techniques, biomechanics, and other health-related studies.
- Prior to graduation, each student must successfully complete several hundred clinical hours of “real” patient management in a clinical setting under professional supervision.
- Doctors of Chiropractic must then successfully complete rigorous National and State Board examinations prior to obtaining a license to practice chiropractic.
- Once licensed, most states, including Washington, require that chiropractors receive annual continuing education to ensure that a high level of competency is maintained.
Fact: Quite the contrary. Many patients feel instant relief immediately after their treatments. In fact, most look forward to their chiropractic treatments. In patients suffering from severe bouts of back or neck pain, some discomfort may be experienced for obvious reasons, however, for most patients this is not the case.
Facts: Chiropractors provide effective treatment for all types of soft tissue disorders and not just back and neck ailments. This includes conditions of the joints of the extremities like the ankle, knee and shoulder.
