The Chiropractic Association (Singapore) was founded in 1988 by three of the first doctors of chiropractic in Singapore. It became a national member for Singapore of the World Federation of Chiropratic (WFC), the international umbrella body for national chiropractic associations, which has Non-governmental Organization (NGO) status with World Health Organization (WHO) in 1990. Chiropractic is a profession recognized by the World Health Organization and the WHO Guidelines on basic training and safety in Chiropractic can be found here.

The Association strives to maintain the highest standards of professionalism of the chiropractic profession in Singapore. As the chiropractic profession is still a self-regulating profession here, it maintains the only professional register of qualified chiropractors. A code of ethics, practice guidelines and a code of advertising have been adopted.

Professional Membership in the Association therefore assures members of the public that their chiropractor is trained to the internationally recognized education standard, and agrees to practice within the association’s code of ethics, practice and advertising.
