What do chiropractors typically major in before they go to a chiropractic college?


Im interested in being a chiropractor and i am currently majoring in biology. however, i was curious to know what other possible majors i could check out primarily because biology is just a rather difficult major.

Also what are some really good chiropractic colleges out there? Right now im interested in Palmer, but it seems rather expensie.

Chiropractors are anti-scientific quacks. Don't waste your time.

If you want to study real medicine with some aspects of vertebral manipulation, consider going to a School of Osteopathy and become an Osteopathic Physician.

postscript:
Chiropractors like to advertise themselves as "back doctors/specialists", but rarely let patients know about their true beliefs. Chiropraxy has nothing to do with modern science or medicine. Chiropractors - at least those who are termed Palmer "straights" - believe that all illness is caused by blockages in the spine - what they call subluxations (magic - because nobody can see them). These chiropractors claim to cure disease by "unblocking" the spine. On slow news days, newspapers and TV stations use to take kids with ear infection to chiropractors, who would often prescribe an expensive series of spinal manipulations for the kid.

Chiropractors who reject or downplay the Palmer "subluxation" orthodoxy are called "mixers". They're the ones you see at "health fairs" waving refrigerator magnets above patients to align their spines and remove impurities in the blood - and lighten the patients' wallets....

I just graduated from chiro school in 05 most of my classmates majored in biology but the majors varied just as phys ed, physiology just about anything health related. Your biology classes might seem tough now but they will make your chiro school classes much easier that first year. On the cost bit...its gonna suck no matter where you go. I had 10k in undergrad loans and finished with 140k and some change when all was said and done. I went to Cleveland Chiropractic College in KC. Palmer is a good school also. Definitely do your research on the different schools philosophy

look kid, i am a chiropractor and i strongly recommend that you look into another field. The income now a days isn't there because of the insurance companies. I don't care if you know of someone doing great, i will show you thousands that are not. Go into dental or pharmacy its where the money is. I can not stress this enough.

I love chiropractic but now is not the time to go into the field.
Carrieazgirl is so right. Look into dentistry!!!
