Sponsored by the International Chiropractors Association (ICA) and the Foundation for the Advancement of Chiropractic Tenets and Science (FACTS), the symposium will be held at the elegant Hotel President Wilson, a 5-star property overlooking Lake Geneva with stunning views of Mount Blanc and the Jet d’eau, the world’s largest water fountain. “We were honored to be invited by the Suisse Association in 2008 to hold our symposium in their beautiful country,” said Dr. John Maltby, Symposium chair. “We have planned a program on diverse topics useful to the chiropractic practitioner, taught by speakers with specific clinical expertise. There is something for everyone -- from the care and treatment of professional athletes to the effectiveness and proper use of instrumentation; from clinical management of the neonate to challenges of caring for the elderly patient; and from chiropractic neurology to principles of musculoskeletal and spine MRI. There will also be discussions on research and professional papers, selected by peer review, presented by doctors in the field and faculty from chiropractic institutions. http://www.chiropractic.org/index.php?p=news/topStory FAB2D119-81E5-46F7-BD95-339265A9AC3E Wed, 3 Feb 2010 09:47:50 -0500 HE’LL BE BACK!

Harry Reid (D-NV) has at last presented a working Senate version of health care reform legislation and an already bitter debate on its wide-ranging provisions is now underway.That debate started after the Senate held a vote November 21st on the motion to proceed to the bill currently before the Senate, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.While heralded as a victory for the majority Democrats, all this motion does is signal the start of debate.According to Nebraska Democrat Senator Ben Nelson, The Senate owes Americans a full and open debate to try to improve our health care system, and all he has personally voted to support is to have debate on the bill begin.The acid test will be how they fare on a motion to close off debate (cloture) which is likely to be much harder to gather the 60 votes needed. http://www.chiropractic.org/index.php?p=news/senate_majority 91E36C89-9DD1-465F-B413-0B5130926B37 Sat, 12 Dec 2009 12:37:07 -0500 The International Chiropractors Association (ICA) www.AdjustTheVote.org advocacy initiative is gaining momentum and participation with daily increasing numbers of chiropractors, chiropractic students, patients and chiropractic organizations joining in.
