I would imagine many industries have inner circles that add stacks of bonus points to already existing advantages of being in a particular profession, and in my experience, the inner circle chiropractic program offers some ginormous bonus points.

It’s often been said that there are as many different chiropractic techniques in the world as there are chiropractors.
