  • Chiropractic in Lancaster County by J
    Chiropractic in Lancaster County By J. Calvin Wenger, D. C. The Chiropractic profession was birthed nationwide in Davenport, Iowa in September 1895. It all started when a magnetic healer, Daniel David Palmer, noticed an unusual derangement in the cervical-thoracic spine of a deaf janitor by the name of Harvey Lillard. He performed a manipulation in this area and Mr. Lillard’s hearing was restored. Thus began a process of patient care that eventually evolved into what today is known as the chiropractic profession. A friend of Daniel Palmer, Rev. Samuel Weed, was fluent in Greek and suggested the procedure be called chiropractic, a practice performed by the use of hands. During the next decade the first chiropractic school was established which is still operating and known now as the Palmer University of Chiropractic. Dr. David Palmer's son, Dr. B. J. Palmer, was an unusual and charismatic leader who succeeded his father and became known as the developer of chiropractic. His son Dr. David Pamler became a 3rd generation leader in the profession and married a Lancaster County native, Dr. Agnes High Palmer. In recent years, two other Palmer higher educational institutions have been established in San Jose, California and Port Orange, Florida. Incidentally and interestingly, the other major manipulative health profession, osteopathy, was also discovered in the Mid-West in the latter 1800's in Swiftwater, Missouri by a practitioner by the name of Andrew Still. The major premise of the chiropractic profession is that dysfunctional spinal articulations and pelvic structures will initiate disturbances with the function of the nervous system in a particular spinal area which in tandem negatively influences the normal functions of the body in that particular area.

Rolf and her life’s work of Structural Integration or Rolfing is a product of early twentieth century American metaphysical thought. Rolfing is an American form of somatic bodywork that strives to overcome the Cartesian mind/body split. Through structural work via manual manipulation, Rolfing attempts to achieve physical health and emotional intelligence. This paper explores four major aspects of Rolfing as American Metaphysical religiosity, as defined by Catherine L. Albanese in Republic of Mind and Spirit: A Cultural History of American Metaphysical Religion. The project also explores the origins of somatic bodywork and the metaphysical idea of spiritual transformation through physical change. The Esalen Institute is examined for its part in developing a secular American metaphysical religiosity that fostered and promoted Rolfing.

Chiropractors place an emphasis on manual therapy including spinal manipulation and other joint and soft tissue techniques. Exercises and lifestyle counseling is also common practice. Traditional chiropractic, based on vitalism, assumes that spine problems interfere with the body's general functions and innate intelligence, a notion that brings criticism from mainstream health care. D. D. Palmer founded chiropractic in the 1890s, and his son B. J. Palmer helped to expand it in the early 20th century. Some modern chiropractors now incorporate conventional medical techniques, such as exercise, massage, and ice pack therapy, in addition to chiropractic's traditional vitalistic underpinnings.

  • How Many Chiropractic Schools? an Update
    Reprinted by permission of the Association for the History of Chiropractic Chiropractic History Volume 27, No. 2 - 2007 9 How Many Chiropractic Schools? An Update GLENDA WIESE, Ph.D* and ALANA CALLENDER, M.S. Estimates of the number of chiropractic schools that have been in existence have been as high as six hundred. The authors identified 436 different school names from 1897 until the publication of an earlier list in 1988. Since that time, the authors have identified an additional 157 school names, for a total of 593. Allowing for name changes, mergers, acquisitions and satellite schools the figure for the past 110 years is much smaller, nearer 250. An updated list of these institutions is the major part of this paper. The schools are categorized by country and state, location and dates of operation, when known. Estimates of the number of chiropractic schools that have refers to) the authors migrated to an Access database. The been in existence have been as high as six hundred (1). One use of this database allows the authors to easily identify all chiropractor testifying before a Senate Committee in 1926 colleges by date, state, college president, key word, or any claimed there had been as many as 200 schools in the state of Michigan (2). Although these claims were exaggerated at the time, the number six hundred may not be far off the mark today if one considers the international colleges, as well as college name changes and variations. The authors originally published an historical directory of chiropractic schools and colleges in 1985 (3) and updated their work in 1988 (4) by adding additional schools and colleges, providing a directory by state and province, and an analysis of the growth of the number of chiropractic schools.

Wardwell University of Connecticut The evolution of chiropractic from a marginal health profession to the strongest and most popular alternative to orthodox medicine in the United States is examined and compared with osteopathy and naturopathy. Evidence is offered that 1974 was the landmark year for recognition of chiropractors (e.g., accreditation of colleges, reim- bursement for services under Medicare) and relaxation of the American Medical Association's policy of active and overt opposition (e.g., elimination from its code of ethics of the tabu on professional association. The pub- lic policy question of the future status of chiropractors is raised and alternatives considered. It is concluded that the most likely outcome, as well as the best for all concerned, is for chiropractic to evolve to a "limited medical" professional status comparable to that of dentis- try, podiatry, optometry, and psychology.
