Abstract/Notes Excerpt: In order for chiropractic to reach its full potential as a healthcare profession, it must be universally integrated into the mainstream healthcare model. For this to be realized, chiropractic must first be unconditionally embraced by mainstream science. With growing competition for today’s healthcare dollar, health policy makers are increasingly relying on an evidence basis to guide decision making. The value that government and other stakeholders assign to chiropractic services will rely on the ability for chiropractic to validate the basic physiologic mechanisms of spinal manipulative therapy through high quality controlled studies.
