SpaBeautySchools.com Featured School of the Week November 18, 2007: New York Chiropractic College

Nov. 20, 2007 - PRLog -- If you're interested in learning about innovative healthcare and complementary medicine, and you've been dreaming of entering the field of chiropractic medicine, then New York Chiropractic College (NYCC) may be able to assist you with your educational and career endeavors. Before applying, says Michael Lynch, New York Chiropractic College school director, students should be aware of the prerequisites necessary for enrollment: a minimum of 90 undergraduate hours, including a year of general biology, chemistry, organic chemistry and physics with labs.

Conveniently located in Seneca Falls, NYCC offers an in-depth Doctor of Chiropractic Program (http://spa-wellness.spabeautyschools.com/content/article/chiropractic-studies-chiropractic-programs/3616/334/) which entails over 4,600 hours in a vast assortment of health disciplines.  In addition to over 500 hours of anatomy, students learn about biochemistry, physiopathology, microbiology, public health, diagnosis, diagnostic imaging, clinical laboratory, chiropractic philosophy and technique, ancillary therapeutic procedures, and additional clinical training, among other associated studies.

While the full-time Doctoral Program may be completed in as little as three years and four months, students gain an equivalent of five academic years of training.  For those requiring more time to complete the program, students can do so under the guidance of the Dean of Chiropractic.  With that in mind, students may take up to seven years in the program and can still be, upon meeting all educational requirements, awarded the Doctor of Chiropractic degree (D.C.).

In addition to its all-inclusive Doctor of Chiropractic program, what sets NYCC's program apart from others is that the college works with area hospitals to provide students with genuine experience. "Students have the opportunity to participate in hospital rotation performing clinical work," explains Lynch. "These clinical opportunities are more real world in treating the indigent population, veterans, athletes, and some people with terminal illnesses. NYCC offers a very nurturing environment."

Lynch attributes the school's  fine academic reputation and student performance on National Board exams to its hands-on approach. "At NYCC, the graduation rate is 92 percent. Students are pretty much assured that if they put the effort forth, they will get licensed."

Accredited by several accrediting agencies and organizations, New York Chiropractic College is a technology leader, offering opportunities in research, scientific investigation, clinical research, and career development, among others.   Is chiropractic medicine right for you?  Take a tour of New York Chiropractic College here: http://www.spabeautyschools.com/clickcount.php?id=1094317...  today and explore the many career training opportunities awaiting you now.
