Outstanding benefits for all

Welcome to the International Chiropractors Association

The International Chiropractors Association (ICA) is here to serve the chiropractic community worldwide.  Established in 1926 in Davenport, Iowa, USA by Dr. B.J. Palmer, the ICA is the world’s oldest international chiropractic professional organization representing practitioners, students, chiropractic assistants, educators and lay persons globally.  As the organization established by the ‘developer’ of chiropractic, ICA is your voice to legislators and policymakers.  We work daily to protect and promote chiropractic distinct health care profession predicated upon its unique science, art, and philosophy. We work with our colleagues across the health professions to promote policies and programs that tear down the long-standing barriers to access and parity in compensation. ICA promotes the advancement of high quality chiropractic research to increase the evidence-base.

We Are Here For You

A global chiropractic network for a stronger tomorrow.

Chiropractic as a profession was established by Dr. D. D. Palmer in 1895.  In 127 years, we have grown from one individual to over 107,000 worldwide.  That growth happened in large part because of the efforts of Dr. B.J. Palmer and his wisdom in organizing the ICA. We are stronger together, able to accomplish more together, so that one day we will reach the goal of having chiropractic available in an equitable fashion in every country and community worldwide.

Wherever you are in your chiropractic career, ICA is here for you!  We work everyday to protect and promote chiropractic.  We collaborate with our chiropractic colleagues and across the health professions on policies and programs that improve your ability to serve your community.
