Looking for a Braille book on chiropractic care - help? (self.Blind)
submitted by jhurle9403
My little sister is 15 and she’s legally blind. She can read Braille or with the assistance of a digital scope/screen type device (sorry I can’t think of what it’s called) but Braille is much easier.
She wants to be a chiropractor when she gets older. Is there any books someone could recommend that cover basic chiropractic information or even just the skeleton? She asked for one for Christmas.
Thanks in advance.

There is a book I used in Massage school called the trail guide to the human body that explains how to find various anatomical landmarks by touch, highly recommended.

Hi, I’m not in the field, but I’ll look for a book. Even better, I’ll ask my network if there are any chiropractors who are blind. I believe in the concept of mentoring, and your sister may be glad to meet someone who is in the field she is interested in.

Hi, I don't see any braille books on Chiropractic care but here are a couple of options:
​
If you can find a book you want in PDF format it can be converted to braille with this program: $1
I have not used that so I can not say how well it works.
​
The other option is to get a Kindle Fire tablet with text to voice and then you can download books and they will be read to you:
$1

Have you tried Bookshare.org? They have a lot of textbooks and other non-fiction on there. You can get them in audio and braille as well, but I’ve never tried the braille option before.

I’ll take a look at it. I’ve never heard of it before. Thanks
