“I love sports! Sports are the reason I decided to go to Chiropractic school and pursue a career in Sports Chiropractic. I love the challenge of taking an athlete from injury to peak performance, and helping find ways to prevent past injuries from haunting them or causing future injury. I chose the chiropractic profession because it is the most hand on way to address an injury. We get to physically create change in the way a muscle fires or activates, decrease adhesions in muscle and fascia, and reprogram the way a person moves in order to make their body more effective in the future.”
