The Science of Chiropractic

THE PHILOSOPHY OF CHIROPRACTIC – THE SCIENCE OF CHIROPRACTIC

The Philosophy of Chiropractic – The Science of Chiropractic is a lecture by Dr. Robert Leach in which he explores the questions of how to define chiropractic separately from the dogma that attempts to make it more like a fundamental religion and he makes it more like common sense scientific information.  Dr. Leach explores his own and other research pathways that have led many to understand how and why chiropractic works.  He distinguishes that chiropractic must have a sound philosophy on which to base its science, and science on which to base its practice.  In doing this he helps the student realize that there are numerous studies in chiropractic in which animals have been used as models for humans, but where they can also serve as models for animal chiropractic practice.  The Philosophy of Chiropractic – The Science of Chiropractic 2 is a lecture by Dr. Robert Leach.  In this lecture Leach discusses the role of modern science and how it shapes a professional practice.  In this lecture Leach also takes some time to explain how the media inform the public of their view of chiropractic and the fact that this view, while incorrect, shapes the majority of public viewpoints with regard to the profession.  He makes a stand for chiropractors doing more clinical research and publishing more scientific research on their findings in a variety of journals in the hopes of changing the public view.  The Philosophy of Chiropractic – The Science of Chiropractic 3 is a lecture by Dr. Robert Leach on how Modern Theory of Chiropractic Informs Practice.  This lecture explains the need for chiropractic philosophy within a chiropractic practice in order to make the practice successful.  Leach outlines the early theories on stress and its role in the subluxation complex, using several early researchers work to show how this is modeled and ways in which the non-inflammatory subluxation can be seen in daily life.  The Philosophy of Chiropractic – The Science of Chiropractic 4 is a lecture by Dr. Robert Leach.  In this lecture Dr. Leach outlines the physics of the spinal adjustment using research from both his own practice and that of several others, including Dr. Joel Pickar who has done several studies in using the cat as a model for the human spine.  This of course is interesting to the animal chiropractor because it gives a direct example of the forces used by animal chiropractors on animal patients.  Here he shows how the frequency of firing of the neurons are directly affected by the spinal adjustment in a positive way.  He uses many other studies suggesting that clinical outcomes correlate well with the physical data that illustrates the function of the improvement in spinal movement.

Effective November 1, 2020

At A.C.E.S. our new decade begins with a bigger commitment to building successful animal chiropractic practices all over the world.

 

Our new policy on refunds for classes reflects this attitude of gratitude for more animal chiropractors who are dedicated to bringing health and happiness to their communities.

 

Once a student registers for the Animal Chiropractic 101 course they are making a commitment to building a successful animal chiropractic practice.

 

At A.C.E.S. we have put into place many methods by which this can be achieved.  Dropping out of class, and not completing the course are not effective ways to do this.

Once registered, there are no refunds. Purchase of a course constitutes an intent to complete the course, and the payments.  If the student is making payments toward their course, they are committed to completing those payments just as they are committed to completing the course.  All sales are final.

 

The same policy applies to continuing education courses.  Doctors who wish to take online or hands on continuing education courses are committed to maintaining their certification.  Making the purchase confirms their seat, and removes someone else’s.  All sales are final.

 

All disputes are actionable in Bosque County Texas.  Venue and jurisdiction arising over this contract shall arise in Bosque County Texas.
