¶ … motivation." To pursue my passion for chiropractics in my homeland I have had to be supremely motivated. Currently, there is no chiropractic college of any kind in my country of Taiwan. I hope to bring my interest, dedication, and belief in chiropractics back to Taiwan, after grounding my knowledge base of this medicinal science and art at Cleveland Chiropractic College.
At present, I believe I have exhausted the full potential of study in my country for the discipline of chiropractics. While studying SCUHS, I learned a great deal about the body, and received something of a foundation in chiropractics in some of basic science courses. But to become a true chiropractor a student must learn the philosophy behind the history and practice of chiropractics and the full diversity of its techniques.
One reason I am so strongly motivated to come to Cleveland Chiropractic College is that SCUHS only teaches the students one technique of spinal manipulation while Cleveland Chiropractic College gives a student a full exposure to a variety of techniques. This is the type of diversity of technique I hope to bring back to my own country. Someday, I hope to found a chiropractic school in Taiwan that functions independently much like Cleveland Chiropractic College. If I cannot accomplish this immediately upon my return to Taiwan, I would try to have my school affiliated with Medical University in Taiwan.
Thus it is diversity above all that motivates my desire to study at Cleveland Chiropractic College, to learn a diversity of techniques while pursuing the study of a medical practice that treats the individual's body and spirit in a holistic fashion. To make maximum use of the personalized nature of chiropractics, one must master the maximum diversity of techniques. Moreover, I believe that my experiences in Taiwan will bring a welcome diversity to the American classroom, and I hope to bring the diversity of techniques, practices, and experiences I shall share in while in the United States back to my home country and the institution I hope to found there.
