One of the many opportunities afforded the chiropractic profession during its centennial year is a prepaid telephone credit card strictly for the use of DCs. The Centennial Calling Card has many advantages:
Lower Phone Rates
With the Centennial Calling Card, instead of having to pay the usual rates for long distance rates, you can call anywhere in the United States for just 50 cents per minute. There are also low rates for international calls. As an added benefit, the first two minutes of phone calls using the Centennial Calling Card are free.
Total Control
You no longer have to rummage for quarters, or wonder what the best time of day to call to get the best long distance rates. Just dial the toll-free number, enter your PIN number and you're cookin'. No one can use your card without your personal number. Because you pay the same low rate wherever and whenever you call, there won't be any surprises with your phone bill at the end of the month.
You're Supporting National Chiropractic Advertising
Sure the rates are outstanding, but the most important reason to use the Centennial Calling Card is that a portion of every call you make goes back to the Chiropractic Centennial Foundation, earmarked for the CCF's national advertising efforts. Pretty slick. What better way to support the profession?
The CCF is making it easy for you. A card in your name has already been arranged. You will be asked to donate a nominal amount of money to support the Chiropractic Centennial effort. The following chiropractic organizations have helped sponsor your card and your first two minutes:
Activator Methods
Chattanooga Group
Core Products International
Dynamic Chiropractic
Eastman Kodak
Leander Health Technologies
Performance Health/Biofreeze
Quest Seminars International
Smith Orthopedics
Spinalogic
Standard Process
The Chiropractic Report
The Chiropractic Centennial Calling Card will be mailed initially to 1,000 DCs in California at the first of the year. The bulk of the profession will get their cards by March.
When you get your card, call the toll-free number to learn more about the Centennial Calling Card (this does not count against your phone time); then start calling. You may use the card as often as you like.
This is just another way that you and your practice can benefit from our Chiropractic Centennial.
Many relevant diagnostic signs are not performed deliberately by the examiner or by the patient at the examiner’s direction. They are observed as the patient reacts to their condition. Fortin’s finger sign, Minor’s sign, and Vanzetti’s sign are three examples of this principle.
Spearheaded by burgeoning scientific and clinical research literature, psychedelics have reached a level of media coverage and popular interest that has not been seen for over half a century. By “psychedelics,” we are referring to the unique class of substances that includes psilocybin (the active compound found in so-called “magic mushrooms”), LSD, dimethyltryptamine (DMT), ayahuasca, 5-MeO-DMT, and mescaline – each of which occurs in the natural world (except for LSD, which is a semi-synthetic compound).
While working at the Lovelace Medical Center in Albuquerque, N.M., one of the primary care physicians stated that imaging every patient prior to receiving chiropractic was not medically necessary. It was at that point I reconsidered the need for the imaging of every patient to avoid malpractice.
