Dr. Angelo Karakasis talks about a trend in professional sports where more and more star athletes incorporate regular chiropractic care into their health regiment.
July 25, 2006 (Press Release) --
Why have Lance Armstrong, Tiger Woods, Joe Montana, and Emmit Smith all turned to chiropractic care? "Because it has been shown to increase athletic performance as much as 16.7%," says Dr. Angelo Karakasis of Garrett Pain and Rehab of Upper Darby, PA.
"Athletes today are in the most competitive environment we have ever seen. Chiropractic care plays a vital role in musculoskeletal performance, prevention of injury, and recovery from injury. That's why so many pro athletes are turning to chiropractic care," says Dr. Karakasis.
Seven time Tour De France winner Lance Armstrong has been a long time advocate of chiropractic care. He has brought his personal chiropractor to every single Tour De France. After one of his victories, he said he could not have won without his chiropractor.
Three time Super Bowl champion and all time leading rusher, Emmit Smith, also attributes much of his success to chiropractic care. Being a running back during a 16 game season takes its wear and tear on the body. Emmit Smith attributes much of his long healthy career to chiropractic care.
A few years ago Scottie Pippen was playing in the NBA finals with the Chicago Bulls. Since the Bulls did not have a chiropractor on staff, he paid for his own. Care was administered to him at least once during the actual finals game.
There's good reason these athletes are turning to chiropractic care. A study in 1991, published in the journal of Chiropractic Research and Clinical Investigation, revealed that chiropractic care can increase athletic performance by as much as 16.7% over two weeks. Another study published in the Journal of Vertebral Subluxation Research in 1997 revealed that chiropractic care increases your capillary count, meaning increased blood flow. The benefits of increased blood flow are substantial for any athlete.
