Chiropractic and Motocross

Top-level athletes have long believed in the value of chiropractic.  Now add motocross riders to the list of athletes that includes, among others, professional golfers and football players.

Motocross is a sport in which riders drive high=performance motorcycles through a course of joltin jumps.  At the  2007 LG Action Sports Championship of Freestyle Motocross (FMX) held in September in Pomona, California, emergency care, chiropractic and soft-tissue treatment was provided by the Southern California University of Health Sciences in conjunction with “2 The Rescue”, a self-titled “extreme medical group”.  Chiropractors, along with other health providers, acted as first responders and as treating doctors.  Chiropractors have also been on duty at professional bull-riding events, an activity not dissimilar to the bumping, banging and high=torque demands of motocross.

A professional athlete seeks chiropractic care for a primary reason:  The performance of his or her body is directly related to making a living.  If chiropractic care can help a professional athlete perform better, just think what it could do for you.  Visit a chiropractor for an examination and some talk about possible benefits.
