History
It is still unknown who the first chiropractor who came to Vietnam was and when the chiropractic movement started.
Dr. Wade was the first chiropractor to receive a practice license from the Ministry of Health (MoH) & the Vietnam Government in 2006. ACC is thus the first registered chiropractic clinic in Vietnam.
It is uncertain how chiropractic found its way to Vietnam, but the first chiropractor to receive a practice license from the Ministry of Health & Vietnam Government was in 2006. Since then, chiropractors from the US, New Zealand, France, and Korea have continued to help the growth of chiropractic in Vietnam.
The first registered chiropractic clinic in Vietnam was ACC and- since its start 16 years ago- has expanded to multiple locations.
