Dear Sir,

We inform you that for the first time in France, all chiropractors of Tours, the biggest town in Loire Valley, will be taken to court for "illegal practice of medicine."

As you know, DCs in France are denied the right to practice chiropractic while medical doctors, with little or no training in neuro articular biomechanics, are recognized.

Any international helping hands will be readily accepted for the five chiropractor of Tours.

Chiropractically yours,

R. Arme, D.C; S. Colin, D.C.; M. Douilliez-Rougebec, D.C; C. Lucon, D.C.; C. Portal, D.C.

 



Dr. Richard Arme is a 1980 graduate of Anglo European Chiropractic College and has been practicing in Tours since 1981.

Dr. Serge Colin is a 1975 graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic and has been practicing in Tours since 1976.

(Drs. Arme and Colin are in practice together)

Dr. Micheline Douilliez-Rougebec is a 1984 graduate of National College of Chiropractic and has been practicing in Tours since 1985.

Dr. Claude Lucon is a 1976 graduate of Anglo European Chiropractic College and has been practicing in Tours since 1976.

Dr. Claude Portal is a 1974 graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic and has been practicing in Tours since 1974

Editor's Note: "DC" is extremely concerned about the plight of these chiropractors. We have been in contact with them and are expecting to hear more from them soon. We will be keeping you informed of any new developments.
