Leonard Faye

Dr. Leonard John Faye, a distinguished chiropractor, graduated from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC) in 1960. His extensive career spans over six decades, with practice experience in England for 15 years, Canada for 11 years, and the United States for nearly 25 years, primarily in Los Angeles. Dr. Faye is widely recognized as a world-renowned pioneer in chiropractic, credited with spearheading the transformation from a static listing-based phase of chiropractic development to a dynamic, functional paradigm. Throughout his career, Dr. Faye has made significant contributions to the chiropractic profession. He authored hundreds of published articles, chapters, and several influential books. He is notably the author of "Good Bye Back Pain!" and "Chiropractic Odyssey: A Journey of Practice, Seminars, Observation and Reading Science." His textbook, "Motion Palpation and Chiropractic Technic," published in 1989/1990, profoundly influenced the curriculum in chiropractic colleges worldwide. Dr. Faye has also shared his expertise globally, presenting over 400 seminars and delivering lectures to undergraduate and postgraduate students since 1967. Among his many achievements, Dr. Faye was the first chiropractor ever appointed by the Canadian Track and Field Team for the 1984 Olympics and the first chiropractor to present to the directors of the RAND Corporation in Santa Monica, CA. He is a founder of ChiropracticMentor.com, an educational platform dedicated to providing clinically-effective and time-efficient techniques for manipulative skills of the spine, pelvis, and extremity joints. Dr. Faye's philosophy emphasizes a functional, rational model of chiropractic, moving beyond outdated myths and dogma, and he specializes in sports and geriatrics, with a focus on chronic pain.
