International Chiropractors Association
The International Chiropractor's Association (ICA) founded by B.J. Palmer in 1938 in Davenport, Iowa, USA. Palmer served as it President until his death in 1961.〔(ICA Site source )〕
Due to 〔(ICA Mission Statement )〕 a view of the profession's scope, which the majority of chiropractors find parochial,〔(ACA-Definition of Chiropractic )〕 in that they advocate for the treatment "by hands only" (non therapeutic)〔 of the subluxation, and have traditionally been opposed to what the mainstream profession considers to be "full scope" chiropractic, its membership has continued to decline. Today, its membership is estimated at about one fifth that of the rival American Chiropractic Association.〔Petersen, D: "Are We in Danger of Losing the ICA?", ''Dynamic Chiropractic'', Vol. 21, Issue 03, – January 27, 2003 ()〕〔Petersen, D: "How Low Must We Go?", ''Dynamic Chiropractic'', Vol. 17, Issue 14, – June 28, 1999 ()〕
==Merger attempt==
In the mid-1980s there was a major campaign for ACA members to join the ICA, in order to cast votes for a merger of the two agencies. The idea was twofold: a, to free up the name, "International" Chiropractor's Association, so that a new organization could be formed to represent the profession at the World level, and b, to have for the first time, one united voice for the profession in the United States. The attempt failed 〔Edwards, J: "ACA and ICA: It's the Same Thing!", Dynamic Chiropractic, Vol. 18, Issue 06, March 6, 2000 ()〕 and the profession reached a consensus in London, in 1987, to create the World Federation of Chiropractic.
