Foot Levelers, Inc., will "go on the road" to celebrate 40 years of serving the chiropractic profession with a series of eight charitable seminars/parties. The eight cities which will host the gala seminars are: Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Louis, Atlanta, Orlando, and Newark.
The speakers for the birthday seminars are some of the most respected in the chiropractic profession: Dr. Terry Yochum, on x-ray techniques; Dr. Kim D. Christensen on biomechanics and rehabilitation; and Dr. Kenneth Murkowski on insurance. After each seminar, Foot Levelers invites DCs to stay for birthday events.
Each seminar will cost a minimum of $75 for DCs, and $25 for CAs and chiropractic students. Foot Levelers will donate half of all fees collected after expenses to the chiropractic colleges (the registration form allows the DC to choose which college the percentage will go to). The other half will be used to fund the work of the Chiropractic Centennial Foundation (CCF) in preparation for chiropractic's 100th anniversary.
Dr. William F. Holmberg, chairman of the board of trustees for the Centennial Foundation, expressed the board's thanks to Monte H. Greenawalt, D.C., DABCO, founder of Foot Levelers, and Kent S. Greenawalt, president of Foot Levelers for the "generous donation they are making to ensure a successful profession-wide centennial celebration in 1995."
Dr. Donald P. Kern, president of Palmer College of Chiropractic (PCC) added his thanks: "Palmer College wishes to commend Foot Levelers for its support of chiropractic colleges and its generous donation to the Centennial Foundation. With half of the proceeds from its birthday seminars given to colleges, and half given to the Centennial Foundation, Foot Levelers has truly shown its dedication to the chiropractic profession."

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.
