Isn’t it odd that the chiropractic colleges are not willing to accept the straight chiropractic model of vertebral subluxation (decreasing the life potential of individuals) but in desperation they are anxious and willing to begin to teach “alternative health care” approaches, most of which have no scientific or logical basis and merely small anecdotal proof of their validity. The colleges are grasping at the straws of naturopathy, acupuncture, and the alternative approaches while the historically accepted life preserver of straight chiropractic, the basis for their very existence, passes them by.v16n1
