The degree for becoming a chiropractor is called a Doctor of Chiropractic, and is abbreviated D.C. In addition to physiciansâ¦ and academics with a doctoral degree, it is customary to address as Doctor such health practitioners as veterinarians, optometrists, and chiropractors.
Be sure to choose a chiropractor who holds a board certification and is state licensed. Like osteopaths, chiropractors favor physical manipulation of the body, and chiropractic treatment focuses on manipulation of the spine. Be aware that some practitioners make greater claims about what they can cure than others.
