Welcome to the Board of Chiropractic Examiners.
The New Hampshire Board of Chiropractic Examiners regulates and licenses the
chiropractic profession in the state of New Hampshire. The Board's mission is the
protection of the public as well as the licensing and regulation of the chiropractic
profession. The Board of Chiropractic Examiners is a five-member board consisting of
four Doctors of Chiropractic and one Public Member appointed by the Governor for
five-year terms.
The Board of Chiropractic is responsible for assuring that applicants are qualified to
practice in the state of New Hampshire and that they adhere to professional and ethical
standards once they are licensed. The chiropractic profession in the state of New
Hampshire is regulated by RSA 316-A and the Board's Administrative Rules. Complaint
investigations are conducted by the Board's Professional Conduct Committee consisting of
experienced licensed Doctors of Chiropractic.
Chiropractic is a branch of the healthcare profession that emphasizes the body's innate
healing ability and the role of the nervous system in the achievement and maintenance of
health. It is a portal of entry to the healthcare community. Chiropractors utilize many
therapeutic modalities including spinal manipulation or adjustment, physiological
modalities including electrotherapies, ultrasound, and traction among others. They also
use rehabilitative exercise, nutritional and lifestyle counseling, as well as other
therapeutic and preventative approaches. Doctors of Chiropractic provide health
care
services in a variety of settings including occupational health and sports
medicine
practices. Today's modern Doctor of Chiropractic enjoys good working relations with
other healthcare providers, referring and receiving referrals and, when appropriate,
with medical specialists, physical therapists, and other health care professionals.
