Abstract/Notes

Excerpt: Children are a significant part of many chiropractor’s practices. There is even a scientific journal dedicated to their practice. According to the International research, 94% of chiropractors treat children who comprise from 5-32% of their practice. There were 103,469 chiropractors in the world in 2017. If the average chiropractor treats 110 patients per week, then 6-35 patients per week x 50 weeks of the year, the extrapolated number of children patients range from 30 million to 170 million/year world-wide, not insignificant numbers. In large outcome studies, parents report excellent clinical outcomes, and high rates of parent satisfaction. There is even some modest evidence of cost-effectiveness.
