Answer 2

It really depends on who you work for. Each chiropractor sets the level and then will raise the pay accordingly. To start the average is between $11-$13/ per hour (in Canada) and then depending on how long you're there for (and how well you're doing) it can increase. There is usually a cap of about $15/per hour for most assistants, but if your clinic offers other services, there is always the change that as your responsibility increases, your pay will increase. Of course, there are; like in every job, the cheap bosses that will not pay beyond a certain point. This is not a career which you will ever make 70,000 a year, but it is a great job with a lot of things to learn. PLUS, chiropractors also tend to set up bonus systems for their employees so there is another chance to make more money on a monthly basis.
