Abstract/Notes

Abstract: Elsewhere in this issue I state ‘Chiropractic is the diagnosis and management of the neuromusculoskeletal system of the human body’ and discuss the emergent problem of an increasing shrinkage of the constitutional framework of the discipline where current arguments continue to remove reference to subluxation from the profession’s lexicon, even flagitiously mandating against teaching the idea within its natural context.

In this editorial I give some examples of the good work being done to carry our profession to greatness, and balance that with some examples of wackiness from Canada and the United States of America, and once again from the usual dismal suspects in Europe. 

I am starting to think that Australia is one of the better places in the world to practice Conventional Chiropractic, yet offer caution that this may be about to change. 

Above all I hold that a Chiropractor carries spontaneous unspoken trust in what they see and feel, and conclude with a marvellous video of a Philosophy discussion about how strongly we can ‘know things’ from our patient’s testimony.
