Abstract/Notes

Kleanthis A. Ligeros was a pioneer of modern chiropractic in Greece.  He was both a trained chiropractor and medical doctor, in addition to being a bilingual academic and historian.  His endless efforts and research for the promotion of chiropractic both in the U.S. and Greece is noteworthy.

Born in Greece, he was an integrated bi-cultural patriotic Greek-American and a U.S. war veteran, who loved and was heavily influenced by ancient Greek scholars.  His major contribution towards the Hellenic chiropractic profession can be encapsulated in his attempts to establish the first chiropractic school, achieve a legal status quo for the profession and stop the persecution of chiropractors in Greece.  Therefore, he was the iconic cornerstone of the Hellenic chiropractic profession.
