Foundation for Chiropractic Progress Announces First Group Member

Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

The Michigan Association of Chiropractors has joined the Foundation for Chiropractic Progress as its first group member. Group member status is achieved by committing to an annual contribution of $10 per "qualified stakeholder," consisting of DCs who practice full-time and pay full association dues. (Full-time DCs in their first three years of practice are included at no cost if the association offers a discounted dues rate.)

"Group Membership delivers tremendous value not only to our association as a whole, but also to our individual stakeholders, who now have access to countless benefits at no added cost," said Kristine Dowell, executive director of the MAC.

Best Practices for Handling Refund Requests
Handling Refund Requests

Refund requests are an unavoidable part of running a chiropractic practice. Whether a patient is unhappy with their care, believes an adjustment caused harm, or simply changes their mind, these situations must be handled carefully to avoid escalation. While chiropractors are not legally obligated to issue refunds in most cases, there are times when doing so is the best business decision to protect the practice.

Don't Forget the Iliacus
Don't Forget the Iliacus

Back pain? Blame the psoas. Seems as if everybody wants to dive headfirst into their psoas at the first sign of trouble with the lumbopelvic-hip region. Perhaps no other muscle is blamed more for causing problems than the psoas. Yes, it is an important stabilizer of the lumbar spine, but it shouldn't be the only one on which you focus. There is another big player on the scene: the iliacus.
