Abstract/Notes

In New Zealand, a conservative land having only a small outpost of the chiropractic profession, there was vindication of the basic tenets of chiropractic philosophy, education, and practice in the report of a government Commission of Inquiry in 1979.  Notably, this followed a direct judicial confrontation with the profession of medicine and physiotherapy.

This study concludes that the Commission’s report will stand as a beacon for many years, exposing superficial assessments made on any of the major issues in chiropractic, and demonstrating the type of thoroughness that must be observed if broad criticism of chiropractic is to be judged fairly.  It is unlikely that there will ever again be as searching an inquiry.

Paper delivered before the third Conference on Chiropractic History, National College of Chiropractic, Lombard, Ill., June 4, 1983.
