About me
Chiropractic promoter and practitioner Dr. Terry Rondberg has devoted his life to chiropractic. Whether promoting the profession in the public eye, or simply providing assistance to his fellow practitioners, Dr. Rondberg has seized every opportunity to advance and expand the chiropractic field. His efforts have been imminently fruitful. Through his steadfast efforts and contribution to further the interests of his fellow practitioners, he has demonstrably improved the chiropractic landscape.<br/>Dr. Terry Rondberg received his D.C. from Logan College of Chiropractic and started his own practices in locations in St. Louis and Phoenix. But Dr. Rondberg's generosity did not stop with the patients with whom he shared his care. His desire to do more for the profession at large was fervent. Not long afterwards, noticing the lack of a solid, reputable, and trustworthy news source that combined chiropractic interests with old-fashioned journalism, he founded The Chiropractic Journal. The Journal was unlike any other newspaper of the time: It offered topics of interest to chiropractic practitioners and professionals, but still adhered to strict standards of journalistic ethics. After founding the journal, Dr. Terry Rondberg put his efforts toward beginning the World Chiropractic Alliance. A Non Governmental Organization (NGO), WCA protects the rights of chiropractors and chiropractic consumers. It is a watchdog organization. The World Chiropractic Alliance is truly global in scope. They have held summits in countries including Australia, Great Britain, Canada, and Austria, just to name a few.<br/>Dr. Terry Rondberg's dynamism is what makes him a very powerful and very desirable speaker. He is often asked to speak and present at prestigious chiropractic conferences and conventions. He defends chiropractic against its detractors and argues persuasively for its benefits. Terry Rondberg enjoys yoga and the martial arts, as well as reading and public speaking.<br/>
