chiropractor

A chiropractor's role in concussion testing and treatment is similar to that of a pediatrician, says Dallas-based chiropractor and strength and conditioning coach, Steve Horowtiz, D.C., CSCS, in that he or she needs to know about the importance of core and neck strengthening and range of motion in preventing concussions, and about the importance of baseline testing (neurocognitive, visual, and balance) in concussion treatment.

William H. Caddoo, DC suggests that parents looking for someone to treat their child's soft tissue sports injury consider a doctor, physical therapist, chiropractor, or even athletic trainer certified in Active Release Techniques^® (A.R.T.^®), and, that if they are looking for a doctor of chiropractic, they ask their child's pediatrician or friends for a recommendation.
