Chiropractic is the system of specific adjustment or
manipulation of the joints and tissues of the body and the
treatment of the human body by the application of manipulative,
manual, mechanical, physiotherapeutic or clinical nutritional
methods for which those persons licensed under this chapter are
trained and may include venipuncture, acupuncture and the use of
diagnostic x-rays with rights for referral for advanced
diagnostic imaging. A chiropractor may examine, diagnose and
treat patients provided, however, chiropractors shall not
perform surgery, direct the use of or administer drugs required
by law to be dispensed on prescription only, practice obstetrics
or prescribe or administer x-ray therapy. For purposes of this
act, "venipuncture" means the puncture of the vein for the
withdrawal of blood.
