Abstract/Notes

Excerpt: I truly believe that we, in all of the health disciplines, can in many contexts draw upon the same core language.
However, there should be no condoning the suggested denial, substitution, and/or compromise of our very specific descriptive language, which is uniquely chiropractic. If we are to preserve our unique understanding and approach, we must uphold our exclusive participation as a special and distinct health discipline which can be described and defended, in both concept and procedure, only by specific terminology.
