Evidence of healers and physicians performing manual
manipulation of the spine can be found in ancient Greek and Chinese history
that date back over 5,000 years ago. Fast forward a few thousand years, Dr.
D.D. Palmer founded the Palmer School of Chiropractic in 1897 in Davenport,
Iowa, which still educates doctors of Chiropractic today. Over time, the
fundamental ideas behind Chiropractic have not changed much, but great strides
have been made scientifically through extensive research validating the science
of Chiropractic.
