NYCC dedicates research laboratory

Kent Greenawalt, president and CEO of Foot Levelers, joined Dr. Frank J. Nicchi New York Chiropractic College (NYCC) president, to dedicate the Foot Levelers Biomechanics Research Laboratory housed on the NYCC campus in Seneca Falls, N.Y.

Research at the new laboratory is designed to provide the opportunity to objectively measure clinical changes that accompany neuromuscular disabilities and orthopedic conditions. It is hoped that research data may reveal how health professionals may better treat patients with complementary and alternative therapies.

Greenawalt said he saw creation of the laboratory as “an unparalleled opportunity to help fund important research that has the potential to help all doctors of chiropractic.”

Foot Levelers’ funding for equipment and research enabled establishment of this biomechanical laboratory in a chiropractic setting.
