What is a Doctor of Chiropractic?

Doctors of Chiropractic (DCs) are highly skilled healthcare professionals who adopt a hands-on, drug-free approach to patient care, encompassing examination, diagnosis, and treatment. Utilizing their extensive diagnostic abilities, they strive to identify the root cause of health issues rather than merely addressing the symptoms. Chiropractors are also trained to prescribe therapeutic and rehabilitative exercises, along with providing personalized nutritional, dietary, and lifestyle counseling.

Like their medical counterparts, chiropractors are subject to state practice act boundaries and are regulated by state licensing boards. Chiropractors must complete nationally accredited four-year doctoral graduate school programs, overseen by an agency operating under the U.S. Department of Education. This comprehensive education equips them with the expertise and skills necessary to deliver exceptional care. Following graduation, chiropractors must pass national board exams to obtain a license to practice. To maintain their licenses, they are required to earn continuing education (CE) credits through state-approved CE programs annually.
