“…Against the background of the potential negative consequences of other commonly used treatments for MSK disorders, such as opioids and surgical procedures, the safety and low-cost availability of SMT are obvious strengths. Thus, Coulter et al [ 1 ] argue that there are compelling and ethical arguments why medical health-care providers should reach out to consult a chiropractor and consider non-pharmacological treatments such as SMT for musculoskeletal pain.…”

In a previous paper, we presented some important weaknesses of and threats to the chiropractic profession as we see them. We further argued that the chiropractic profession’s relationship with its principal clinical tool (spinal manual therapy) is at the core of the ideological divide that fractures the profession and prevents professional development towards greater integration in the healthcare landscape. In this manuscript, we shall argue that the historical predilection for spinal manipulation also gifts the profession with some obvious strengths and opportunities, and that these are inextricably linked to the management of musculoskeletal disorders. The onus is now on the chiropractic profession itself to redefine its raison d’être in a way that plays to those strengths and delivers in terms of the needs of patients and the wider healthcare system/market. We suggest chiropractors embrace and cultivate a role as coordinators of long-term and broad-focused management of musculoskeletal disorders. We make specific recommendations about how the profession, from individual clinicians to political organizations, can promote such a development.

This report aims to inform complementary and integrative health (CIH) and public health practitioners about integrating CIH providers as part of the public health workforce for future public health emergencies. The objectives were to define the potential roles CIH practitioners could play and how the CIH professions could collectively mobilize to become a part of the public health workforce. We searched the literature and convened an expert panel of ten CIH and public health practitioners to discuss the topic.
