basketball-injuriesACA Utah delegate, Craig Buhler, DC, was recently quoted in an article about chiropractic care for the prevention and treatment of basketball injuries. According to 2010 data from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, basketball is the most injury–prone sport of any in the nation–reporting 528,584 injuries, compared to football which reported 489,676 injuries. Basketball players reported being sidelined by everything from back spasms to sprained ankles. Dr. Buhler, who was DC for the Utah Jazz during a time when they had the lowest injury rate of any team in the NBA, said that chiropractic care “helps give teams and athletes a competitive advantage by assisting in the recovery from many structural injuries, putting them in a position to enhance endurance levels and achieve overall peak performance.”
