The DC Practice During COVID-19: Tell Your Story

Subscribers of Dynamic Chiropractic are invited to participate in an international survey of chiropractors being conducted in countries across five continents, including Australia, Canada, Denmark, Hong Kong (China), Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a highly transmissible disease with approximately 30 million confirmed cases and 1 million related deaths worldwide as of press time.

While chiropractors in the United States have been essential health care workers addressing neuromusculoskeletal disorders during this challenging time, the impact and response by U.S. DCs to the pandemic is underresearched.

With over 100,000 practicing chiropractors worldwide, this is the first international-based study that seeks to provide important insights into the impacts and changes to the health care delivered by chiropractors during COVID-19. Your participation gives you the chance to share your own experience and contribute new knowledge about the personal and professional impact of this historic pandemic.
