Abstract/Notes

Abstract: Spinal manipulation began long before AT Still or DD Palmer developed their art and sciences in North America. The term ‘bone-setting’ was coined in 1510 in Europe and this skill was brought to colonial America by one famous family, the Sweets, making for interesting and humorous stories that included notable Americans from our country’s early history.

Another link to our Founding Fathers includes a similar sentiment about medical freedom espoused by Dr. Benjamin Rush, signer of the Declaration that was shared by both DD and BJ Palmer in their early writings.

Ironically, it was medical iatrogenesis that led to the death of our first president, George Washington, when a pupil of Dr. Rush was at Washington’s bedside to perform bloodletting that attributed to his death.
