World Spine Care

World Spine Care (WSC) is a multinational non-profit organization dedicated to providing sustainable, evidence-based spinal care to underserved communities globally. Founded in 2008 by Dr. Scott Haldeman, the organization operates clinics in countries such as Botswana, the Dominican Republic, Ghana, and India, integrating conservative treatments like chiropractic and physiotherapy into local healthcare systems. WSC also conducts extensive research through its Global Spine Care Initiative to develop scalable models for managing the global burden of spinal disorders. The organization relies on a network of international volunteers and partnerships with academic institutions to train local healthcare providers and ensure long-term sustainability. Its mission is to improve lives by addressing the leading cause of disability worldwide—neck and back pain—through integrated and people-centered care.
