Chiropractors Provide Care to Hundreds of Relief Workers

As a result of the September 11 tragedy, doctors of chiropractic provided chiropractic care to thousands of rescue and recovery workers in Washington, DC. The International Chiropractors Association contacted local, state, and federal agencies, as well as volunteer relief organizations such as the Red Cross and Salvation Army, offering chiropractic services to all in need. Chiropractic volunteers worked in three shifts to provide needed care to military, law enforcement, and support personnel at "CAMP UNITY", the name given to the relief village that has grown up next to the crash site. Volunteer chiropractors treated as many as 300 people a day.
