Inside the chiropractic profession, there are many diverse procedures and approaches to spinal care. Although each individual Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) may practice chiropractic with their own individual systems and techniques of care, those procedures are rooted in established techniques taught in the curriculum of various chiropractic colleges and universities. One of those established techniques is called EPIC. “EPIC” is an acronym for Evolutionary Percussive Instrument Corrections. It is a chiropractic technique that focuses on the use of progressively advancing diagnostic and adjusting technology to correct the craniocervical junction alignment. Its mission statement is: “We believe in challenging the status quo in healthcare, as well as in chiropractic. Forever striving to improve our quality of care, we will always look for the next conceptual or technological breakthrough that will help us achieve better spinal corrections for optimal patient health.”
