Abstract/Notes A survey involving all registered chiropractic doctors in the state of Oklahoma was conducted in order to ascertain demographic information, common modalities used in treatment, and professional opinions of practicing chiropractic doctors. Further, this study was compared to a similar study conducted in 1989. Approximately 49% of 625 surveys were returned for analysis. Results indicated that Oklahoma chiropractors utilize a variety of spinal adjustment techniques, supported by various therapeutic modalities, referrals, maintenance care, nutritional advice, and nonprescription drugs in the treatment of their patients. Most chiropractors realized an increase in income and were evenly split in the opinion regarding the desire to prescribe prescription drugs. Comparison trends include less treatment of internal conditions and recommendations of nonprescription drugs and exercise. Additionally, fewer x-rays were taken within the practices. Recommendations were that similar studies should be conducted sequentially to ascertain the trends within the profession.
