Moraine Park's Chiropractic Technician associate degree is the only program of its kind in the Wisconsin Technical College System. Students develop knowledge and skills in a variety of areas related to chiropractic health care, including office management and insurance procedures, patient therapies, nutrition, patient education and taking x-rays. As part of the experience, students rotate through four internships.

Graduates, under the supervision of a chiropractor, perform functions and services that are preparatory or complementary to chiropractic adjustments. Skills learned in the program include patient examination, physiotherapy treatment, chiropractic radiology, patient education and nutrition education, office procedures and management skills.

Additionally, this exciting health care career option is offered at the West Bend campus. Program courses meet on Thursday and/or Fridays, and online, giving you the convenience to complete your degree close to home and the ability to continue to work and earn your associate degree with some flexibility.

Graduates have the option of becoming nationally certified in radiology by the American Chiropractic Registry of Radiologic Technologists. 

This program is a nontraditional occupation for men.
