CHIROPRACTIC PHILOSOPHY COLLOQUIUM

The Program | The Associate Program | Registration Information

Journey through our historical past and into quantum chiropractic through intensive studies of healthcare paradigms, the 33 principles of chiropractic, physics, anatomy, contemporary scientific views of matter and energy, cell biology, millennium chiropractic concepts, research and so much more.

It takes but a year to earn the honor of a lifetime…
Unlike any other award currently offered, the L.C.P. award and your place in the Legion of Chiropractic Philosophers represents the honor, dignity and respect for the principles upon which the profession was founded and continues to grow. This exclusive program is designed specifically for those doctors who are ready to move to that next level of understanding of the chiropractic paradigm and how it is applied to modern science.

Advances in physics and cell biology are toppling the philosophical underpinnings of conventional medicine, as chiropractic’s long-standing philosophy of vitalism in health and healing is being validated. Don’t forego this unique opportunity to learn more than ever about the basis and application of our philosophy in the modern world.

Join us as we open the great doors to the illustrious “Fellows Room” at Palmer’s historic Lyceum Hall and Museum to present the most elegant program in the profession to a select group of committed doctors from around the globe.

It’s not about the medallion you’ll wear with pride upon completion. It’s not about the plaque that hangs in Lyceum Hall with your name engraved on it. It’s not about the money and time spent to participate. This program is about the ability of our elite Legion of Chiropractic Philosophers to better understand, preserve and perpetuate chiropractic philosophy to their patients, colleagues, the profession and the world.
