Fun Facts About Chiropractic

At Absolute Wellness Center, we practice neurologically based chiropractic care at the Lake of the Ozarks. We love helping our local community learn more about their bodies and how to heal them from the inside out. You can look through past blogs, or visit our website to learn more about our new client procedures, as it can be a bit unique compared to other offices. We invest a lot of time and attention to each individual client, and this starts with the new client orientation.



  • Chiropractic is a time-tested tradition that has been used for thousands of years to help aid the body. Here are a few facts about chiropractic that you may find interesting.
  • Unbeknownst to quite a few, infants can benefit greatly from chiropractic care. It makes sense—birth can be pretty hard on a little body! The adjustment is adapted to suit their needs and is perfectly safe.
  • It is estimated that Doctors of Chiropractic (DCs) treat over 35 million Americans (adults and children) annually.
  • An injured worker is 28 times less likely to have spinal surgery if the first point of contact is a Doctor of Chiropractic (DC), rather than a surgeon.
  • Each day, over one million adjustments take place across the globe. That’s a whole lot of relief!
  • Chiropractic is recognized and regulated by law in over 40 countries! And in the United States, D.Cs are licensed in all 50 of them!
  • There are about 95,000 doctors of chiropractic in active practice across the globe, and about 10,000 students are currently enrolled in chiropractic education programs in the United States alone.
  • Doctors of Chiropractic (DCs) go through a minimum of 4,200 hours of classroom, lab, and clinical internships during their 4-year doctoral graduate school program. Perspective: If you combine all that time, that’s 175 days straight.
  • The term “chiropractic” is a combination of two Grecian words: cheir which means hand, and praktos which means done. “Done by Hand”... fitting, right?
  • People often wonder if the thin sheet of paper used on the chiropractor’s table actually helps to guard patients against germs and infections.
  • Even though you back may not hurt or you are not feeling pain, you can utilize the benefit of chiropractic care for holistic whole-body preventative care.
