Study to be a Chiropractor in Auckland New Zealand
New Zealand College of Chiropractic
“Someone asked
me the other day “Why do so many Chiropractors love their job?”
and it took me back a bit – I hadn’t really given it much thought
before. I’ve decided it has to do with the fact that we really do have
such an ability to help so many people - You leave quite an impact.
Also the people who seek us out for Chiropractic care tend to be quite
proactive about their health. It’s just a really positive environment to
be in. I certainly love it" ~ NZCC Graduate 2013
Chiropractic
is one of the largest health care professions in the Western World. The
philosophy behind chiropractic is simple and unique. If the spine is
functioning properly, the nerve system will function more effectively.
This automatically allows the body to work optimally and heal itself.
Essentially, Chiropractic is about helping the body to help itself.
Chiropractic is
highly flexible. Graduates today have a choice of going into private
practice with 80% of Chiropractors in New Zealand own their own
practice, travelling New Zealand and the world as a locum, working as an
associate or undertaking research. Some move into Chiropractic education
or health-related professions.
