CHIROpRACTOR WELLNESS ISSUE – MAy 2009 CALL fOR SUBMISSIONS Enter, be published and win! Canadian Chiropractor magazine would like to announce our first-ever wellness issue dedicated specifically to taking care of DCs and their CHAs. Our May issue has traditionally featured “Health and Wellness” articles aimed at broadening our read- ers’ knowledge regarding a wide range of patient challenges that may arise in clinic. This year, Canadian Chiropractor will be putting a slightly different spin on this. We are dedicating a whole issue to taking care of you, the chiropractor and your staff! The May 2009 issue will be filled with articles and tips to help you maintain your own wellness while you serve others. We’d like some of these articles/tips to come from you! If you know of a health issue that affects DCs and/or CHAs, or have a wellness tip/technique/exer- cise/regimen to keep your colleagues going through long clinic days, we invite you to e-mail it to our editor at [email protected]. No more than 500 words please – no specific fonts, etc., required. Please include your name, the address of your practice, your e-mail address and your telephone number. All, previously unpublished, submissions will be reviewed by members of the Editorial Advisory Board – reviewers will be blinded to the author’s identity. Judging will be based on relevance, originality and creativity. For DCs: three prize winners and three honourable mentions will be announced, and published, in our May 2009 issue! For CHAs: two prize winners and two honourable mentions will be announced and published. Submissions will be accepted from any DC and/or CHA working in Canada. Submissions from members of the Canadian Chiropractor staff and Editorial Advisory Board as well as regular writers for the magazine will not be considered. Deadline for submissions is March 9, 2009. If you are interested in writing a full-length feature article for this issue (i.e., not a contest entry), please feel free to contact us at [email protected] or 289-259-1408 for full details. Let the wellness begin – good luck, and thank you, to all entrants!
