Description
Katie de Luca led a 2026 commentary on the role of chiropractic care in rehabilitation, the care that restores daily function after illness or injury. About 2.4 billion people live with conditions that could gain from such care. Chiropractors train in muscle and joint health and person-centered care, and the paper argues they can strengthen health systems.
The authors describe chiropractic work after surgery, in sports injury recovery, and in nerve rehabilitation. They show how chiropractors join team-based care, public systems, and hospitals. Gains in low- and middle-income countries and for fair access are weighed. Barriers include uneven laws, low recognition by other professions, and patchy team integration. The paper ends with a call for better training links and advocacy.
