How Athletes May Benefit From Chiropractic
A study published in Chiropractic: The Journal of Chiropractic Research and Clinical Investigation by Lauro and Mouch (1991) showed that athletes exhibited a 30% performance improvement after 12 weeks of chiropractic care. The participants were tested on different aspects of athletic ability such as power, reaction time, balance, agility and kinesthetic perception. Those not receiving chiropractic care showed just a 1% performance increase after six weeks. The participants under care, however, showed an 18% performance increase after six weeks.
