Falls Church, VA (October 29, 2025)<\/strong> The International Chiropractors Association (ICA) proudly congratulates Dr. John Maltby, Sr. on his appointment as Interim Secretary General of the World Federation of Chiropractic (WFC). Dr. Maltby\u2019s decades of leadership, service, and dedication to advancing chiropractic worldwide make him an outstanding choice for this important role.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe ICA congratulates Dr. Maltby and applauds the WFC for their wisdom in selecting a strong, principled leader to guide the Federation during this interim period. For the ICA, engagement with the WFC is a vital part of our mission\u2014working collaboratively with colleagues around the world to protect and promote chiropractic as a distinct, drug-free healthcare profession grounded in the unique philosophy, science, and art of subluxation detection and correction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
