At the request of the Illinois Chiropractic Society, Governor JB Pritzker has issued a proclamation designating October 2026 as Chiropractic Healthcare Month. The proclamation was issued on Tuesday, September 1.

The proclamation highlights the benefits and importance of chiropractic care throughout the State. It also recognizes the dedication chiropractic physicians have to their patients. Every year, approximately two million patients in Illinois visit chiropractic physicians. Nationwide, over 30 million Americans do so.
