Since its professional origins in the late 19th century, the chiropractic field has evolved under the leadership of renowned male practitioners, many of whom have served as invaluable teachers and mentors for thousands of students. Yet, since the WWII era, the demographics of chiropractic students have shifted dramatically, with more than 50% of current graduates self-identifying as female.
Strikingly, the community of practicing chiropractors remains heavily male dominant-4:1, male to female-a statistic that indicates significant hurdles for women in establishing their professional careers. As a student, a practitioner and a lecturer, Dr. Lauren Koedyk has witnessed the lack of resources that women in the chiropractic field-like many other fields-experience in developing their careers.
In addition to teaching a physical style of manual adjustments that directly addresses the anatomy and self-care of female practitioners, Nikau seminars and retreats focus on fostering confidence, strength and community for both aspiring chiropractors and established practitioners.

The modern world is full of imbalances, from the air we breathe and the food we eat to the way we physically spend our days (for most of us, seated).
These disproportionate taxes on the body teach us to live outside a state of well-being, in which we often lose sight of what it feels like to enjoy the full, healthful freedom of our bodies.
Founded on a profound understanding of the human nervous system, chiropractic care is one of the most powerful modalities for addressing both the physiology and psychology of imbalance.
