The Manitoba Chiropractors Association (MCA) promotes, advocates for, and regulates the chiropractic profession in Manitoba. As a member association and self-regulating professional body, we foster and ensure the highest standard of chiropractic healthcare for all Manitobans — patient safety is our first priority. We govern doctors of chiropractic in Manitoba under the legislative and regulatory authority of The Chiropractic Act.

As the primary advocate for chiropractors and their patients, the MCA collaborates with external stakeholders to create an environment where chiropractors can provide patients with the best possible care while ensuring that care is accessible to everybody who needs it. We promote the benefits of chiropractic care and spinal health to help make Manitoba a happier, healthier province.

    • Monitoring and evaluating professional Standards of Practice;
    • Investigating complaints and initiating disciplinary proceedings, when necessary;
