UsainBoltWhen it comes to looking after his body, you can be sure that the fastest man on earth is going to be making some pretty good decisions. So, it was no surprise to see Usain Bolt receiving chiropractic care at the 2012 Olympic Games.

World’s fastest man, Usain Bolt, says that he is fit and ready for London’s 2012 Olympics and is convinced his defence of the 100m title could trigger one of the fastest ever races in the blue ribbon sprint. Bolt is a Jamaican sprinter and a five-time World and three-time Olympic gold medallist. He is the world record and Olympic record holder in the 100 meters, the 200 meters and (along with his team-mates) the 4×100 meters relay and the reigning Olympic champion in these three events. He is one of only seven athletes to win world championships at the youth, junior, and senior level of an athletic event.

Usain Bolt regularly utilizes chiropractic care to improve his performance

South Florida’s Dr. Michael Douglas who is certified in Chiropractic Neurology has been the official Chiropractor of the Jamaican Olympic Team since 1996. He blends sports injury rehabilitation and traditional chiropractic care techniques and has performed these techniques on thousands of patients as well as on some of the world’s greatest Olympians such as Usain Bolt, Asafa Powell, Veronica Campbell, Shelly-Ann Fraser and more.
Many, unfortunately, turn to chiropractic care only AFTER they have been injured. But, in addition to improving performance, speed and agility, ongoing chiropractic care and therapy can offer several health and wellness benefits vital to everyone:

  • Improved Posture
  • Increased Range of Motion
  • Increased Flexibility
  • Reduced Risk of Injury
  • Reduced Migraines and Severe Headaches
  • Improved Recovery After Sports Injuries
  • Increased Blood Circulation and Oxygen Flow in Body
  • Pain Reduction in Major Joints
  • Better Focus and Concentration
  • Reduced Stress
  • Improved Immune System (for warding off common illnesses and diseases)

Chiropractic therapy offers several benefits for athletes who are constantly pushing their bodies to the max. In fact, other top athletes such as Tiger Woods and Lance Armstrong each have regular chiropractic care regimented into their routines.

Amateur or professional or even just starting out in sports or fitness, Usain Bolt’s approach is a great example of how to take care of your body.

Come on in and aim for gold!
