Day two was used for study of posture, and the Cartesian coordinate listing system. The next three days were for adjusting technique, molding, traction, and exercises. The 21 attendees of the seminar are all members of the Japan Chiropractic Association. There are some four to five associations of size in Japan. The JC is the largest organization.
Chiropractic seminars are few and expensive in Japan.
There are only about 55 American College Graduated doctors here. This means the education pipeline is small. Bringing in a Doctor from America can be very expensive, not to mention interpretation, hotel, and other fees. Contrary to popular belief, only a small percentage of Japanese speak English, therefore, all instruction is in Japanese, or requires an interpreter. The JC also sponsored a two-week dissection study at Texas Chiropractic College this year.
