Great Chiropractors Know Why Chiropractic is Great

No healthcare practitioner can replace the chiropractor and, conversely, the chiropractor is not intended to replace a healthcare practitioner. The role a chiropractor plays in a patient’s life is indispensable, and at Sherman College of Chiropractic, you will learn why.

Understanding why chiropractic is so special is just as important as learning how to practice good chiropractic. This is why chiropractic philosophy is integrated throughout the Sherman College curriculum.

Great Chiropractors are Great Adjusters

The skills of analyzing and adjusting the spine are often referred to as chiropractic technique. At Sherman College, you will spend over 500 class hours learning chiropractic technique. Sherman College’s small class size ensures an abundance of one-on-one practical experiences. We know that there is no substitute for skilled hands. Students will develop their skills in an experiential environment while engaging with live patients as opposed to simulations or mechanical practice dummies.
