Excerpt from A Consideration of the Legal Aspects of Chiropractic: And More Particularly of the Question Whether or Not Chiropractic Is Included Within the Terms of the Michigan Medical Act, Act No. 237, Public Laws of 1899, as Amended, and Is Subject to the Provisions of That Act The purpose of this brief is to show that the method or practice of treatment of disease and physical ailments known as Chiro practic is within the scope of the act regulating the practice of medicine and surgery in the state of Michigan; and that, consa quently, one who uses this system in Michigan Without having first complied with the requirements of that act by obtaining a certificate of registration is punishable according to the terms of the act. Briefly described, Chiropractic seems to be a theory or system advanced and developed within the last decade which has for its purpose the removal of the causes of disease and injuries by means of manipulation confined to the spinal column. The fol lowers of this school consistently avoid using the phrase to cure disease. Instead, they speak of removing the causes of various acute and chronic ailments by means of adjustments of the vertebra with their hands. They do not give their patients drugs, nor do they use any instruments. They sav that all diseases and ailments that mankind sufiers have their origin in the spinal column, by reason of the pinching or compression of the nerves by the misplacement or abnormal position of one or more vertebrae. Here they seek the cause of any disease or injury that comes under their care; and having found it, they make the requisite adjust ment, whereupon the cause of the disturbance disappears, and with it its effect, the disease or injury. Its teachers and followers insist that Chiropractic differs widely from Osteopathy; although superficially there might seem to be a strong resemblance. In this assertion the Chiropractors appear to be right, and Chiropractic must be regarded as distinct from Osteopathy. Numerous schools have sprung up in the United States to teach Chiropractic, and the courses extend over a period of about a year; generally two terms of five months, more or less, with perhaps an intermission of a few months. Diplomas are issued to graduates conferring degrees: usually that of D.C., or Doctor of Chiro practic. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Chiropractic is by far the most common form of alternative medicine in the United States today, but its fascinating origins stretch back to the battles between science and religion in the nineteenth century. At the center of the story are chiropractic's colorful founders, D. D. Palmer and his son, B. J. Palmer, of Davenport, Iowa, where in 1897 they established the Palmer College of Chiropractic. Holly Folk shows how the Palmers' system depicted chiropractic as a conduit for both material and spiritualized versions of a "vital principle," reflecting popular contemporary therapies and nineteenth-century metaphysical beliefs, including the idea that the spine was home to occult forces. The creation of chiropractic, and other Progressive-era versions of alternative medicine, happened at a time when the relationship between science and religion took on an urgent, increasingly competitive tinge. Many remarkable people, including the Palmers, undertook highly personal reinterpretations of their physical and spiritual worlds. In this context, Folk reframes alternative medicine and spirituality as a type of populist intellectual culture in which ideologies about the body comprise a highly appealing form of cultural resistance.
