Chiropractic started in 1895 when the founder of chiropractic, Daniel David Palmer ‘adjusted’ a man who had reported, in his youth, to have heard a ‘pop’ in his back and had been nearly deaf ever since. After receiving his first chiropractic adjustment he reported a subsequent return of his hearing.DD Palmers second noted case was a man with heart troubles – he examined the spine and found a ‘displaced vertebra’ in the region where the heart receives its innervations. He then adjusted the patient who reportedly experienced immediate relief. Palmer then reasoned that ‘if two diseases so dissimilar as deafness and heart trouble, came from impingment, a pressure on nerves, were there not other disease due to a similar cause?’

Thus the science (knowledge) and art (adjusting) of Chiropractic was formed. Chiropractic has undergone much controversy throughout the ages, most notably when the medical paradigm was formed, but are now however, the third largest primary healthcare physicians alongside medical doctors and dentists.
