This research aims to investigate musculoskeletal problems and pain, as well as their effects on the quality of life, arising from the working conditions of chiropractors in their workplaces. Additionally, it is intended to conduct a detailed analysis of working conditions in chiropractors' work environments to identify existing problems, establish the cause-and-effect relationship between musculoskeletal problems, pain, and these conditions, conduct studies to improve chiropractors' work environments, and demonstrate the positive effects of improving working conditions on the quality of life and professional performance of chiropractors.
