Palmer delivered the first chiropractic adjustment to Mr. Harvey Lillard, a janitor in an office building in Davenport, Iowa who had lost his hearing 17 years earlier. Upon adjusting the misaligned spine, Mr. Lillard\u2019s hearing was immediately restored.

There are also a growing number of colleges worldwide, and the ICA and its colleagues are working to increase global opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the ICA: <\/strong>The ICA is the oldest and leading chiropractic organization working nationally and internationally promoting and protecting the chiropractic profession as a separate and distinct healthcare profession with its own science, art, and philosophy. We are a premier provider of postgraduate continuing education, including diplomate programs in upper cervical care, pediatrics, and philosophy. We believe every individual should have the freedom to select chiropractic care and have credentialed chiropractors who understand how to detect and correct vertebral subluxations with the chiropractic adjustment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>September 18, 2023 (Falls Church, VA) &#8211; The International Chiropractors Association (ICA) is pleased to celebrate the 128th anniversary of the founding of chiropractic as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chiropractic.org\/the-128th-anniversary-of-the-founders-day-of-chiropractic-launching-icas-television-campaign\/\" class=\"more-link\">&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":40606,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,4],"tags":[191,192,193,194,195],"class_list":["post-40624","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-press-release","tag-viewpoint","tag-dennis-quaid","tag-commercial","tag-founders-day","tag-founders"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chiropractic.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40624","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chiropractic.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chiropractic.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chiropractic.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chiropractic.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40624"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.chiropractic.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40624\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":40638,"href":"https:\/\/www.chiropractic.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40624\/revisions\/40638"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chiropractic.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40606"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chiropractic.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40624"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chiropractic.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40624"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chiropractic.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40624"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
