Requested move
- The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: moved to History of chiropractic. Favonian (talk) 21:50, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
Chiropractic history → History of chiropractic – I can't remember ever before seeing a page entitled "____ history" — they're always "History of _____". I see no reason for this page to be different. History of chiropractic is a redirect to this page with no history except its creation, so it could be moved by anyone, but this is a significant enough article that I don't want to move without discussion. Nyttend (talk) 21:21, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
- Support. There should be a consistent way to name such articles. The best model is exemplified already in History of medicine, History of chemistry, and the like. It should be followed here. NoeticaTea? 22:46, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
- Strong support — The rationale provided by Nyttend is unassailable, and this proposed change should be treated as uncontroversial. Senator2029 | talk | contribs 20:18, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- Support. No big deal, but no reason this article shouldn't be consistent with other similar articles. Jenks24 (talk) 03:14, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
- The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
Palmer Death
I propose eliminating the Palmer death section based on general puffery and lack of context within the article. Please discuss. DVMt (talk) 08:27, 7 February 2013 (UTC)
Chiro vs. Osteo
I propose removing the comparisons in the lead paragraph and in the subsection referring to a contrast between chiropractic and osteopathy being chiro believes spinal manipulation is for the sake of the nervous system and osteo for the circulatory system: 1. The cited source does not support or even mention this. 2. This is an inaccurate characterization of osteopathy - its founder, A.T. Still gave equal importance to the role of nerves, fascia, arterial flow, and venous return in contributing to the body's function. Additionally, spinal manipulation was only one of several manual approaches to address impaired health. Part of the osteopathic claim of "bastardization" at the time had to do with this perceived oversimplification of osteopathic theory and practice in chiropractic (and perhaps why D.D. Palmer in the cited source characterizes osteo as being "too cumbersome"?). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.220.116.3 (talk) 08:44, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

Medicine vs chiropractic
Under this section the word 'he' is used especially in the later sentences with no reference to which 'he' Langworthy or Palmer, can someone with more knowledge of the subject correct this section with the appropriate names? Many thanks!
......He was arrested twice more by 1906, and although he contended that he was not practicing medicine, he was convicted for professing he could cure disease without a license in medicine or osteopathy. Dr Solon Langworthy, who continued to mix chiropractic at the ASC&NC, took a different route for chiropractic. [He] improved classrooms and provided a curriculum of study instead of the single course. [He] narrowed the scope of chiropractic to the treatment of the spine and nervous system, leaving blood work to the osteopath, and began to refer to the brain as the "life force". [He] was the first to use the word subluxation to describe the misalignment that narrowed the "spinal windows" (or intervertebral foramina) and interrupted the nerve energy. In 1906, Langworthy published the first book on chiropractic, Modernized Chiropractic" — "Special Philosophy — A Distinct System. [He] brought chiropractic into the scientific arena...... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.98.120.58 (talk) 23:28, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
