National Chiropractic Health Month 2026
Every day, our joints play a fundamental role in keeping our bodies moving and able to do everything from completing daily tasks and enjoying leisure activities to achieving athletic feats of wonder. When they function well, we barely notice them, but with age, our joints become more prone to injury wear and tear, which can lead to pain and functional limitations.
The Texas Chiropractic Association is pleased to join the American Chiropractic Association (ACA) in celebrating October 2026 as National Chiropractic Health Month. TCA and ACA members and doctors of chiropractic across the country will raise awareness of the importance of joint health by sharing health promotion and injury prevention strategies. They will also highlight how chiropractors can help people manage joint pain and injuries, and enhance joint function, with an evidence-based, nondrug approach.
Obtaining a proclamation in your city or county is one way to raise awareness of chiropractic's evidence-based, patient-centered nondrug approach to health and wellness. In addition to a proclamation from Gov. Greg Abbott and the State of Texas, TCA had nearly 50 – the most of any state association!
Step-by-step instructions on how to reach out to government offices are included on the sample proclamation webpage. The application process can take several weeks to complete, so get started soon so you can announce your proclamation in October.
Keep TCA Posted on Your Progress
Once you receive your proclamation, let TCA know by emailing a photo or copy of it to [email protected] and/or posting it on social media with the hashtags #chirohealthmonth and #chirotexas so that TCA and ACA can find it and repost it for the entire chiropractic community to see.
