The ACA Council on Sports Injuries and Physical Fitness is a professional and educational non-profit organization with a growing membership of active chiropractors. The ACA Sports Council attracts doctors from across the U.S. and around the world, who desire to become more directly involved with developing and promoting the treatment of athletes.
Many professional athletic and sports organizations recognize the value of chiropractic care in correcting and preventing injuries:
• The Players Association of the National Football League has made chiropractic care an integral part of its sports medicine program.
• The United States Olympic Committee and several other nations selected chiropractors as attending physicians at the Olympic Games.
• Chiropractors have also been retained at many other sporting events including the Pan Am Games, Goodwill Games, National Sports Festivals, New York and Boston Marathon and Ironman Triathalon.
The Sports Council works closely with athletic organizations, as well as allied health professionals, to promote better understanding of the value of chiropractic care in athletic training and treatment. The Sports Council in no way endorses any doctor of chiropractic, health care provider or facility.
