Press Release Summary = Learn why top athletes like Tiger Woods and Barry Bonds use
regular chiropractic care to enhance their game performance and to reduce and manage
injuries.


Press Release Body = What do Barry Bonds, Tiger Woods, Andy Roddick, and Lance
Armstrong have in common? They are incredibly accomplished athletes that have used
chiropractic care as a key ingredient to their success.

The fact is that more professional athletes use chiropractic than ever before. Even
more revealing is the increased use of regular chiropractic care for entire
professional teams. In fact, Chiropractic Economics reported that over 95% of teams
in the NFL use chiropractors as a regular part of player care.

Some professional athletes pay personal chiropractors to give treatment before,
during, or after a game. Barry Bonds, one of the best all time baseball players, has
a personal chiropractor who travels to games. Bonds has incorporated chiropractic
into his lifestyle. He reportedly said, \"I think it should be mandatory to see a
chiropractor and massage therapist.\"

Dr. Mitchell Shea, D.C. is an experienced sports chiropractor and owner of Shea
Chiropractic in Cookeville, TN. Dr. Shea has worked with hundreds of athletes in
various sports. He said, \"Professional athletes get three main benefits with
chiropractic care. They are to prevent injury, manage injury, and to enhance
physical performance. Perhaps the most exciting thing about chiropractic is the
performance enhancing abilities it provides athletes.\"

A study in 1991 in the Journal of Chiropractic Research and Clinical Investigation
revealed that chiropractic care can increase athletic performance by as much as
16.7%! Another study in the Journal of Vertebral Subluxation Research in 1997
revealed that chiropractic care increases an athletes capillary count. This means
increased blood flow and more oxygen to the body.

Dr. Shea strongly recommends both professional and amateur athletes look into
chiropractic and how it can help them perform to their potential. Many
chiropractors, like Dr. Shea offer a discounted consultation to athletes interested
in learning more about chiropractic.
