Send us a textCraig McLean, your host, welcomes Adrian Wenban, chiropractor and head of Barcelona College of Chiropractic. Following on from our last episode where a recently graduated student from both RMIT and Barcelona filled us in on the differences between the two programs. We ask Adrian about the history of the Barcelona college, when it started, how big it is, how many students per year, but mainly how the ethos of the education is true to the origins of the chiropractic profession, keeping the students focused on the founding principles of the profession. He expands on this to explain how three main techniques are taught, the students are hands on from year one and its not discouraged to discuss the term subluxation and DD Palmer. He encourages all of his students to find and develop their own personal philosophy around health, healing and chiropractic. We talk about the recent RMIT situation in Melbourne Australia, where without warning or consultation the program was closed down and the profession lost 140 graduates a year. He has an opinion on where that program went wrong. Hope you enjoy this episode, Adrian and I have history and he reminded me that he actually worked in Putney Chiropractic back in the 1990's before I took over ownership. Instagram @chirolondonpod
