The history of Chiropractic care started in 1895 when a man by the name of DD Palmer helped a custodian who had become partially deaf regain his hearing by adjusting a misaligned vertebrae in his spine. Two years later in 1897 the Palmer College of Chiropractic was born and began teaching students the science, art and philosophy of chiropractic and helping people without the use of medications, surgeries or injections.
