Have you ever been adjusted by a chiropractor? Have you ever been to a chiropractic office? They are always extremely busy and have a very large space! Chiropractors also like to keep their offices clean and busy with patients so they can get more business. During the day the chiropractor's office is very busy. Chiropractors are always kind and respectful to their patients. Do you know anyone who works in a chiropractic office or is even a chiropractor? Since many chiropractors have their own families, they usually offer them free or discounted adjustments. This research paper will talk about the chiropractor's salary, educational requirements, and job prospects. It will also explain what chiropractors do in their work. I hope to become a chiropractor one day after all my college years. I hope Alex starts a business and invites me and asks me to work for him! He has already talked about starting a business somewhere in the tropical islands. Chiropractors can make a lot of money, they just need to know how to fit their patients properly. The word "chiropractor" has two origins, the Greek words cheir and praxis; meanwhile, cheir means “hand” and praxis means “practice”. Furthermore, most of the work performed by chiropractors is done manually (Pike par. 5). In 2002, going to a chiropractor was found to be the most commonly used treatment program. 74%, approximately 4 million, of people suffering from back pain turned to a chiropractor for treatment. Of those 74% of people, 66% said they had obtained “a great benefit” (Pike par. 9). Many chiropractors work full time, but 1 in 3 chiropractors work part time. Chiropractors work whenever their patients need them, even in the middle of paper for people. To earn a higher salary, chiropractors must take many very challenging college courses, perform well, and focus on learning how to fit a patient properly under close supervision.
