🕊 Honoring the Discoverer of Chiropractic — Dr. D.D. Palmer
📍 Born: March 7, 1845 — Pickering, Ontario, Canada
⚰️ Passed: October 20, 1913 — Los Angeles, California
🕯 Age: 68 years
Dr. Daniel David Palmer was no ordinary man — he was a visionary who saw what others could not. He wasn’t popular, perhaps hated by many in his time. In 1895, he made a discovery that would forever change the face of health care and human potential.
From one adjustment, one location, one man, a janitor named Harvey Lillard, D.D. Palmer gave birth to an entirely new profession — Chiropractic.
He introduced a science, art, and philosophy that recognized the body as a self-healing organism, capable of functioning in health when the nervous system is free from interference. He coined two NEW terms 1) Innate Intelligence and 2) Vertebral Subluxation.
What began in a small room on Second and Brady Street in Davenport, Iowa, has now touched millions of lives across the world.
Chiropractic continues to bring hope, healing, and health — one specific adjustment at a time.
D.D. Palmer didn’t just adjust a spine; he adjusted the course of history.
