Chiropractic in Romania

Chiropractic is legally recognized as a CAM therapy in the group “manual therapies” in the law on CAM 118/2007 (238). Only medical doctors, dentists and pharmacists with approved additional qualifications are allowed to practise chiropractic in Romania (239). The therapists allowed to practise specialized kinetic therapies are called kinetotherapists in Romania (see Other treatments in Romania) (237).
