Myth #2: Chiropactic is unscientific

Over the past decade, there has been an explosion of chiropractic research, the most of any complementary health profession.  In Canada, much of this activity is being driven by the Canadian Chiropractic Research Foundation, which has helped to establish 10 research chairs at universities across Canada and given grants to assist Doctors of Chiropractic to complete their PhD studies.  The research is supporting what chiropractors have been doing for years, restoring normal joint function through spinal manipulation and active rehabilitation with exercise is one of the most effective treatments for uncomplicated back pain.  Current information on chiropractic research in Canada can be found at http://www.chiropracticcanada.ca/en-us/research.aspx
