Thank you, and we look forward to hearing from you. The Board of Chiropractic Licensure was established to protect the public safety, health and welfare through regulation of the practice of chiropractic in the State of Maine. The primary responsibility of the Board is to examine and license qualified applicants for practice in Maine, issue licenses; investigate complaints and take appropriate disciplinary action.
