Baja Whale Spine
by Susan Feldman

 

"I first saw Dr. Feldman after I injured my low back while adjusting a patient. Not only did he get me back to work after a few adjust-ments, he was able to work with me on my biomechanics in a way that now allows me to first take care of my own spine, and the spines of my patients."

Welcome to the web site for The Injury-Free D.C. -- a new source of injury prevention advice, seminar listings,and DVDs designed especially for you, the doctor of chiropractic. As a veteran chiropractor in practice since 1982, I have experienced my share of injuries and I have seen many talented colleagues drop out of the profession due to pain and disability. With 87% percent of our profession eventually succumbing to a back injury* and with wrist, elbow and shoulder injuries all too common, the call for a preventive program is vital.

I have been an avid movement practitioner for decades including the study of martial arts, dance, fencing, the Alexander Technique, and (of course) chiropractic. Using the universal principles for effective biomechanical efficiency inherent in all these disciplines, I have designed movement methods that allow the chiropractor to adjust with safety, fluidity, and precision. I now dedicate myself to filling the need for an injury prevention program for our field. It is my aim to serve you, my colleague, so as to assure that you stay in practice longer and turn more lives around with the power of the chiropractic adjustment. I welcome you to browse this web site, contact me with questions and/or sign up for continuing education seminars. I am also planning to offer DVDs for home or group study in the near future.

With you in health,
Ethan Feldman, DC
