Chiropractic care is among the most ancient methods of healthcare which is still in use today. It’s been around for centuries, and though it’s weathered its fair share of misinformation and doubt, it’s overall a very highly respected branch of the health sciences. Over the past century, it’s been increasingly proven to be scientifically beneficial as an effective and holistic approach to healthcare.
Chiropractic has never stopped advancing its methodology and philosophy, and this practice continues to this day. At Polaris Chiropractic, we are pleased to offer this brief history of chiropractic care and all of the benefits it can offer to our local Monticello community.
History of Chiropractic Care as a Science
Though chiropractic has been around for centuries, it arguably took a massive leap forward in the year 1895. The first person to define vertebral subluxation (spinal misalignment) in a purely scientific sense was Dr. D.D. Palmer. Dr. Palmer was also the first to diagnose a patient with this condition and to give them a chiropractic adjustment. He recognized the pressure on the nerves that the misalignment was causing and understood its effect on bodily functions.
Over the following decades, his son and daughter-in-law continued his studies, and this eventually resulted in the establishment of the Palmer School of Chiropractic. The Palmer School became a leading research institute on the science of chiropractic as well as the holistic, whole-body healthcare approach it represents.
The Advancement of Chiropractic Services
Since the establishment of the Palmer School, other chiropractic colleges have sprung up all over the world, each advancing the science in their own way. Each teaches the latest methods, approaches and philosophies, as well as training in the latest technologies to identify and address subluxations of the spine.
Since that time, chiropractic care has grown by leaps and bounds, with new advancements being made every year. Countless people have experienced first-hand the benefits this branch of healthcare has to offer.
