Sherman College Gathers Leaders in Chiropractic for 16th Annual IRAPS

Sherman College of Chiropractic will host the 16th Annual International Research and Philosophy Symposium (IRAPS), a peer-reviewed conference on vertebral subluxation research and the philosophy of chiropractic, in Spartanburg, SC, October 12-13, 2019. Up to 14.5 hours of continuing education credit are available, depending on state regulations. Registration is open at https://bit.ly/2LHw7oy.

The goal of IRAPS is to bring together leaders in philosophy and research as well as practitioners who are centered on the vertebral subluxation practice, to build a stronger academic community worldwide regarding the subluxation model of chiropractic. The symposium’s intent is to foster a view that the chiropractic profession is centered on vertebral subluxation, based on vitalism, dedicated to research and developing a discipline of philosophy.

Keynote speakers include Scott L. Rosa, D.C., B.C.A.O, and Claude Lessard, D.C. Rosa will present “A Neuro-Radiographic Demonstration of the Upper Cervical Misalignment in Patients Involved in Head/Neck Trauma,” and Lessard will present, “A New Look at Chiropractic Basic Science.”
