About WFC 2025

The WFC’s World Congress is a congress held every other year in a different host country. The congress is one of the largest chiropractic congresses in the world, with participants from all continents. It is open to all chiropractors and serves as a link between research and clinical practice.


The participants

Close to 1,000 participants from around the world will attend the congress. Most participants will be clinicians practicing in a chiropractic clinic, but there will also be researchers from universities and research institutions worldwide, as well as chiropractors employed in hospitals, healthcare clinics, sports clubs, or in administrative positions.

Additionally, politicians from national chiropractic associations will participate, along with stakeholders from other organizations and professional societies.


The congress

The congress spans three full days, during which there will be various plenary and breakout sessions throughout the day. The target audience is clinical practice, which will also be reflected in the program, focusing on the latest knowledge, research, and how it can be implemented in practice. There will be sessions where new research is presented by researchers from around the world, as well as sessions of a more clinical nature that provide participants with hands-on experience. During all breaks, catering will be provided in the common area, where you will have the opportunity to meet sponsors and exhibitors.
