When sports chiropractors first appeared at the Olympic Games in the 1980s, it was alongside individual athletes who had experienced the benefits of chiropractic care in their training and recovery processes at home. Fast forward to Paris 2024, where chiropractic care was available in the polyclinic for all athletes, and the attitude has now evolved to recognize that “every athlete deserves access to sports chiropractic."
An Appeal to the Profession
Stephen Johnson attends chiropractic college at The National College of Chiropractic. He has begun to suffer the physical changes of chronic diabetes, i.e., visual impairment, unhealed peripheral ulcers, and end-stage kidney degeneration.
He has finally been accepted into a program which has made him eligible to receive a pancreas transplant. This procedure is not covered by insurance or Medicare. His cost for the operation is $60,000. He has turned to the profession in a desperate attempt to raise the funds, since the help he is able to get from the National College family is not going to be enough. Your generosity will be met with Steve's immeasurable gratitude.
To help meet his goal, forward your contribution to:
