1962-Present

This time period in the history of the philosophy of chiropractic is still being written. As new facts emerge and time allows, the pivotal chiropractors of modern and postmodern chiropractic will be placed here. Please keep checking back for updates.

In the interim, for a better understanding of this era, please study Dr. Senzon’s latest articles and track down the references.

In 2010, Dr. Senzon initiated a five-part series of peer-reviewed articles called, Constructing a Philosophy of Chiropractic. In the first article in the series he writes,*

“If philosophy in chiropractic is to develop into a discipline, it needs to transcend and include all
elements of the profession from scientifically testable theories, which range from VS to doctor-patient
interactions; ethical, legal, and political questions; and all possible ramifications of the chiropractic
encounter. This latter area of study would include biopsychosocial and spiritual health and well-being. A
philosophy of chiropractic should be able to include science, art (as in chiropractic as a healing art), and ethics or morals.” (2010, p.7)
