WHO KEEPS THE ALBERTSONS BOISE OPEN GOLFERS HEALTHY AND ON TOP OF THEIR GAMES?

Local Sports-Based Chiropractor and His Team of Doctors Help Pros Optimize Performance

Dr. Kevin Hearon, local chiropractor and chiropractic instructor, has led a team of sports-based chiropractors in treating the professional golfers at the Boise Open for 23 years.  And they’re back again for the 2014 Alberstons Boise Open, a PGA TOUR-sanctioned Web.com Tour event.

Here is video from last year’s Boise Open  (this is pretty technical and aimed at other chiropractors; includes Dr. Andrew Edelstein, DC, Team Doctor for the New England Patriots and Boston Bruins).

Dr. Hearon and his fellow ‘Certified Chiropractic Extremity Practitioners’ keep the golfers in optimum playing shape by treating their spines, joints, and extremities, including the feet, the all-important ‘foundation’ for a golfer’s swing.

Dr. Hearon has been teaching his extremity adjusting techniques to chiropractors worldwide for over 35 years.  His treatment protocol isn’t just for the spine like most chiropractors, but includes treatments for all the extremities, including the feet, which is where most lower back pain issues start.

“Golfers are extremely high risk for lower back and joint injury based on the mechanics of their swing movements”, states Dr. Hearon.  “Where most chiropractors start from the top down working on the spine, we also work ‘from the ground up’ by looking at the feet, which is actually where most lower back injuries originate from. Based on the golfer’s location of their pain and discomfort, we use a quick muscle testing protocol that tells exactly where to adjust them to relieve their pain and restore full range of movement fast.”

The muscle testing protocol developed by Dr. Hearon and used by his team of chiropractors allows for diagnosis and treatment within just a few minutes, which is key based on the time and physical constraints these elite athletes perform under.

States Dr. Hearon, “as former athletes we have a lot of respect for these high-performing players. We feel a responsibility to serve them and help them remain pain-free so they can play to their maximum potential without physical constraints”.

Dr. Hearon’s “Dream Team” of Doctors and former students include Team Doctors for many professional sports teams, including Dr. Jim Kurtz, DC, current team doctor for the defending Super Bowl Champion Seattle Seahawks, team doctors for the Indianapolis Colts, Denver Broncos, Baltimore Ravens, Boston Bruins, Duke Blue Devils, and South Carolina Gamecocks, to name a few.

Dr. Hearon was recently honored as a special guest at the Professional Football Chiropractic Society, where he dedicated two full days to treating the aches and pains of NFL Team Doctors in conjunction with the NFL Combine in Indianapolis.  Many of these Team Doctors were trained under Dr. Hearon and use his muscle testing and treatment protocols on a daily basis with their athletes.

You can see Dr. Hearon and his team of Certified Chiropractic Extremity Practitioners in action at the 2014 Albertsons Boise Open from Tuesday, July 15 through Sunday, July 20.
