4.0 Strategic and Market Analysis

4.1 Economic Outlook

This section of the analysis will detail the economic climate, the chiropractic industry, the customer profile, and the competition that the business will face as it progresses through its business operations. Currently, the economic market condition in the United States is in recession. This slowdown in the economy has also greatly impacted real estate sales, which has halted to historical lows. Many economists expect that this recession will continue until mid-2009, at which point the economy will begin a prolonged recovery period. However, chiropractic practices operate with great economic stability as people will continue to require care despite deleterious changes in the general economy.

Chiropractic practices provide aggregate revenues of $9 billion a year and employ 109,000 people. There are approximately 34,000 private chiropractic practices in the US.
