Strong backbone: Aging baby boomers and healthcare reform will support growth

Chiropractors in the US

Sometimes regarded as a fringe or vague science, chiropractic care has recently gained more legitimacy and greater acceptance among medical physicians and insurance providers. Though some doubt remains, demographic trends and the healthcare reform bill will revitalize the industry in the next five years. Additionally, with more baby boomers turning to alternative medicine, demand for chiropractors is set to rise.

This industry includes establishments of practitioners who have a doctor of chiropractic degree. These doctors are primarily engaged in the independent practice of diagnosing and treating patients based on the concept that the nervous system coordinates all of the body's functions. Chiropractors work to manipulate the spine with their hands to realign the vertebrae and relieve the pressure on the nerves.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
