The Michigan Chiropractic Society and the Michigan Chiropractic Association see evidence of the growing role of chiropractic care in Michigan
According to the 2006 “Controlling Health Care Costs Study” conducted by the Michigan Chamber of Commerce, chiropractic care tops the list of alternative care options offered by Michigan employers. Nearly three-quarters of responding companies report that their employees use one or more alternative care options, and of these more than half offered chiropractic care.
This is the second year the Chamber has asked the question of chiropractic in the workplace on its annual survey, and the results have been positive for the profession. This year’s number of businesses offering chiropractic care improves on last year’s by 15 percent (57 percent over 42 percent), surprising researchers at the inroads of chiropractic in Michigan’s health care delivery system.
“This is a great sign for the future of chiropractic,” says MCA president Dr. Sam Caruso. “It should be no surprise that chiropractic is leading the way on all fronts. The survey results point out what we’ve known for years-that the public is looking for an improved method of health care.”
MCS leaders concur. “These numbers are so telling in today’s competitive economy,” says Dr. Christopher Dean, president of the MCS. “Businesses are desperate for ways to cut their health care costs and they are turning to DCs for help. I’m confident that chiropractic will continue to be the leader in alternative health care.”
