A common misconception about chiropractors is that they just “crack backs” – but this is very far from the truth. Chiropractors are necessary for a range of health-related treatments, from migraines, range of motion, ADHD, arthritis, high blood pressure, and therapeutic support for cancer. Dr. Barry Goldstein is a New York chiropractor who specializes in clinical nutrition, applied kinesiology, and contact reflect analysis. Amongst people of all occupations and ages, his practice has shown that regular chiropractic care for athletes has major health and performance benefits.
It’s no secret that sports can cause a wide variety of physical ailments in athletes, compromising their strength, speed, flexibility, and coordination. Whether an athlete engages in high impact sports like football, hockey, and wrestling, or low impact sports like golf and tennis, the constant tension and strain on the body should be addressed and alleviated to keep the athlete performing in top condition.
