Life Chiropractic College West

Chiropractic is a natural, preventative, and non-invasive form of health care that is based on the principle that the body has the inherent ability to both heal and maintain itself without the use of drugs or surgery. Chiropractic is safe, effective and cost efficient. This fundamental approach to wellness mirrors a new and changing attitude toward health care in the United States and around the world.

Chiropractic is a total-body healthcare system, and not a method of pain management. As a gatekeeper for direct access to the health delivery system, the responsibilities of the doctor of chiropractic as a primary care clinician include wellness promotion, health assessment, diagnosis, and the chiropractic management of the patient's health care needs. When indicated, the doctor of chiropractic may also co-manage, consult with, or refer to other health care providers

Life Chiropractic College West offers the doctor of chiropractic degree providing a solid academic and clinical experience, featuring an integrated emphasis on chiropractic technique and philosophy. In our friendly and positive environment, students may complete the program in 12 quarters (three years), or 14 quarters (3 ½ years). Life West offers over 12 different techniques in core and electives programs and take a very practical approach to your chiropractic education, which is geared toward the needs of the practicing chiropractor. Hands-on training begins on the student's first day, finally culminating in a solid year of clinical outpatient experience.
