No! My intent with the content I share is to educate health-conscious individuals on how they can improve their physical and neurological health, ultimately to help improve their overall performance.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Good question. There are obviously differences in the services that can provided via telehealth compared to in-person. However, since the pandemic there has been extensive research into the efficacy and effectiveness of online health services for musculoskeletal rehabilitation and fitness based health services and the results suggest that telehealth can be very effective.

Question 4

What is a sports specialist chiropractor, and how does this differ from a normal chiropractor?

Accepted Answer

In Canada, to call yourself a sports specialist chiropractor requires additional training beyond a 4-year chiropractic doctoral degree. This includes a subsequent 3-year post-doctoral fellowship program that involves various multi-disciplinary hospital, community and sports placements. This includes working directly with orthopaedic surgeons, physiatrists, neurologists and sports cardiologists to gain a better understanding of how other health professions diagnose and manage various injuries and health ailments. This positions a sports specialist chiropractor to be a valuable member in hospital, team and performance settings, due to the additional exposure and requirements to their training. Academically, they are also required to publish original academic research in peer-reviewed journals during their training, meaning that they gain an extensive understanding of how to perform, appraise and synthesize scientific literature in order to practice evidence-based health care. There are only ~150 sports specialists chiropractors in Canada, and the Royal College of Chiropractic Sports Sciences (Canada) is looked at as the premier specialty college for chiropractors across the globe.
