What Is a Chiropractor?

Chiropractic doctors are regulated healthcare professionals who specialize in diagnosing and treating conditions related to the spine, joints, muscles, and nerves. Their primary focus is helping people recover from injury, manage pain, and improve function through non-invasive, hands-on care.

In British Columbia, chiropractors are licensed to treat a wide range of musculoskeletal issues. Their education and training include:

  • Undergraduate Education – A minimum of 3 years of university-level study
  • Doctor of Chiropractic Program – 4 years at an accredited chiropractic college, with over 4,500 hours of classroom and clinical instruction
  • Supervised Clinical Internship – 1,500 hours of hands-on patient care
  • Board Certification – Successful completion of national and provincial licensing exams

Chiropractors are also trained to identify conditions that may require referral to another healthcare provider when appropriate.
