Everything you need to put this in front of your people

The MAHA Chiropractic Hub is the organized chiropractic voice inside the Make America Healthy Again movement, working to embed nervous system health into national health policy.

At the MAHA Institute’s first roundtable, chiropractic was not mentioned once, with chiropractors sitting in the room. That gap is why this group exists. A profession that is not in the conversation gets defined by the people who are. The Hub was formed so chiropractic shows up to national health policy as a peer with something to offer, not as an applicant asking to be included.

To unite chiropractors as leaders in solving America’s health crisis by restoring nervous system function, salutogenic paradigms, and adaptive capacity across all ages. The Hub advances evidence-informed, non-pharmacologic, whole-person health as a primary solution within MAHA’s focus areas: family health, wellness, and prevention; metabolic and chronic disease; fertility and preconception health; maternal and perinatal health; pediatrics and neurodevelopment; mental and emotional health; addiction and recovery; sports performance and recovery.

America’s chronic disease crisis reflects a system built to manage disease rather than to build health. The nervous system is a missing pillar of public health, and chiropractic already has what a prevention strategy needs: a nationwide, drug-free infrastructure of doctors in nearly every community in the country. The MAHA Chiropractic Hub exists to make sure that infrastructure is recognized in national strategy, and to make sure chiropractic’s distinct identity survives the process. That identity is nervous system centered, root-cause oriented, focused on vertebral subluxation, and non-pharmaceutical. The group meets weekly. It has produced white papers in two versions each, one for federal and legislative audiences and one written for the public. It works to six objectives, the first of which is to make the spinal and nervous system checkup ordinary, framed around resilience, stress regulation and prevention rather than pain. MAHA is a vehicle, not a destination. Chiropractic’s identity stays intact in every room this group enters, including that one.

At the first MAHA Institute roundtable, chiropractic was not mentioned once. There were chiropractors in the room. That gap is why the MAHA Chiropractic Working Group exists. It is the organized chiropractic voice inside the Make America Healthy Again movement, working to put nervous system health into national policy on children’s health, chronic disease, and prevention. Weekly meetings. White papers written for both policymakers and the public. Six objectives, starting with something concrete: make the spinal and nervous system checkup as ordinary as any other preventive appointment. This work is funded by the people who believe in it.

Subject: The profession finally has a voice in this I want to tell you about something I am supporting. There is a national movement to address why Americans are getting sicker, and for a while chiropractic was not part of the conversation at all. At the first roundtable, the profession was not mentioned once. A group of chiropractors decided not to let that stand. The MAHA Chiropractic Working Group now meets weekly, publishes research for policymakers and for the public, and works to make the spinal and nervous system checkup an ordinary part of preventive care. None of that runs on its own. If you want to see chiropractic represented where health policy is actually decided, you can support the work here: https://go.mahaaction.org/Chiro-Working-Group

Chiropractic now has an organized voice in national health policy. The MAHA Chiropractic Working Group is putting nervous system health into the conversation on children’s health, chronic disease, and prevention. Worth supporting: https://go.mahaaction.org/Chiro-Working-Group

Before you go, one thing that has nothing to do with today’s topic. Chiropractic is being represented in national health policy right now, by a working group that meets every week and publishes the research to back it up. That representation is paid for by people who decided it mattered. The code on this slide takes you there. It takes about a minute, and it is the single most useful thing you can do for this profession today.
