Have you ever considered continuing your education onto physical therapy/sports specific? I ask because I will be attending Life West Chiro college and I want to give sport specific care as well. I’ve been a CFtrainer for a year and a half (i’ve actually been training for 5 years). I love training and want to have a CrossFit with my Chiro practice. Id appreciate your input, thank you.
Jason,
First let me apologize for the late response. Life has been hectic. Thanks for your question. At this stage in my career I have no plans to focus on sport specific therapy. I share the same philosophy as CrossFit by specializing in not specializing. I believe that all people can benefit from a broader range of fitness that will translate into their everyday needs, whether it be throwing a pitch or lifting a child. Currently my desires are to treat a wider range of the population with no concentration on one sport/activity. My goal is to get people moving, and have them moving well. At the same time I am confident that an athlete of any sport can benefit from this type of chiropractic program, because they will learn fitness to help protect their back and receive relief through manual muscle techniques. I am excited to learn that there will be young chiropractors like yourself coming up and helping to pave a new road alongside myself and others within the profession. Don’t lose sight of your goals! What sport are you considering focusing on? Be well!
