It is my intention to significantly enhance ICA’s communications, both within the profession and to the public at large. The ICA will continue to anchor its policies and actions in chiropractic’s timeless and proven principles while applying cutting-edge strategies and technologies. We recognize the unique service of vertebral subluxation detection and correction that only the chiropractic profession can provide, and its role in worldwide optimal health expression. We are committed to focusing on and advancing principled chiropractic as the powerful force in healthcare it must be in order to meet the needs of patients of all ages in communities around the world.”
