Chiropractor

Duties and responsibilities

hiropractors are health care providers who work with patients dealing with problems related to bones, muscles, ligaments and tendons. They usually work either in private practice or in health care clinics or facilities. A chiropractic must have a Doctor of Chiropractic degree, which usually takes four years to complete. The median annual salary for chiropractors in 2011 was $66,060, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Salary - $66,160

Education

Educational  and licensing requirements for doctors of chiropractic (DCs) are among the most stringent of any of the health care professions.DCs are educated in nationally accredited, four-year doctoral graduate school programs  through a curriculum that includes a minimum of 4,200 hours of classroom, laboratory and clinical internship,  with the average DC program equivalent in classroom hours to allopathic (MD) and osteopathic (DO) medical schools.

Demand

Employment of chiropractors is projected to grow 17 percent from 2014 to 2024, much faster than the average for all occupations. People across all age groups are increasingly becoming interested in alternative or complementary healthcare. Chiropractic care is appealing to patients because chiropractors use nonsurgical methods of treatment and do not prescribe drugs.
