Historic Founders of Chiropractic

D.D. Palmer,D.C.:Founder of Chiropractic

“The basic principle,and the principles of chiropractic which have been developed from it,are not new. They are as old as the vertebrata. I have,both in print and by word of mouth,repeatedly stated and now most emphatically repeat the statement,that I am not the first person to replace subluxated vertebrae,for this art has been practiced for thousands of years. I do claim,however,to be the first to replace displaced vertebrae by using the spinous and transverse processes as levers wherewith to rack subluxated vertebrae into normal position,and from this basic fact,to create a science which is destined to revolutionize the theory and practice of the healing art.”

B.J. Palmer,D.C.:Developer of Chiropractic

“The master maker of the human body did not create you and then run off and leave you masterless. He stayed on the job as Innate,as the Fellow Within,as nerve transmission controlling every function of life,as Spirit from Above-Down,Inside-Out,expressing,creating, exploring,directing you in every field and phase of experience so that your home is truly the world and the world is your home.”
