No matter what level of sport you play chiropractic will help you improve performance. With your nervous system functioning optimally and your skeletal system correctly aligned your performance will improve, you will have a reduced chance of injury and you will heal faster from existing injuries.
”I would estimate that in excess of 90% of all world-class athletes use Chiropractic care to prevent injuries and to increase their performance potential.”
– Sean Atkings, Ph D Exercise Physiologist (casschiro.com/testimonials.cfm)
AC Milan Football Team
Ac Milan are the current world and European club champions. In 1998 Dr. J.P. Meeserman (a chiropractor) was brought in to A.C Milan football club to take control of the clubs health set up. Dr. Meeserman immediately implemented a non medical, chiropractic approach. The results he has been able to achieve have been nothing short of amazing. In his first year he reduced pharmaceutical use by 94% and in the same year reduced the injury rate at the club by 90%. Because of the reduced injury rate the club was able to cut down to a playing squad of 23 players from 35. The benefits of chiropractic care have been able to extend many players careers and the average age of the squad is currently 29, the oldest in European professional football.

Tiger Woods and Chiropractic
Arguably the greatest golfer the world of golf has ever seen has this to say on chiropractic.
’Being a chiropractor patient has really helped me immensely’.
’Lifting weights and seeing a chiropractor on a regular basis has made me a better golfer. I’ve been going to Chiropractors for as long as I can remember. It’s as important to my training as practising my swing.’
Evander Holyfield
The only ever four time heavy weight champion of the world Evander never failed to see his chiropractor before a fight.
‘I found that going to a chiropractor helps my performance. Once I drove 20 miles to see a chiropractor before a fight. I must have my adjustment before I go into the ring’.

He needed brain and testicular surgery as well as extensive chemotherapy.
