History

The McClave Act was passed in 1939, and established uniform license requirements for anyone in New Jersey wishing to practice the healing arts. In 1953 the law was updated and chiropractors were then allowed to apply for licensure before an examining board consisting mostly of medical doctors and a single chiropractor.

Over the next 30 years, New Jersey licensure laws continued to evolve with increasing educational and training requirements for chiropractors that were more in step with the national accreditation given to chiropractic colleges.

The passage of the Chiropractic Board Act in 1989 instituted the New Jersey Board of Chiropractic Examiners, an oversight board for regulating all practicing chiropractors in New Jersey. The Board was created within the Division of Consumer Affairs and regulates the chiropractic profession.
