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."

Three Health Professions, One Trade Show
This year, the American Chiropractic Conference, the American Massage Conference and the American Acupuncture Conference will take place concurrently. Hosting the historic event is the Town and Country Resort & Conference Center in San Diego. More than 100 hours of continuing education are available at the three-day event (April 20-22), featuring leading educators from all three professions – including Dr. Jeffrey Tucker, Dr. J. Todd Knudsen, Sam Collins, Whitney Lowe, David Kent and others.
ONE Concept is the brains behind the integrated conference. According to Scott Darnell, ONE Concept co-founder, "Each of these professions supports the health and wellness of their clients in very specific and distinct ways.We hope to take that support a step further by providing an environment which allows each profession an opportunity to understand each other and work together to support the physical health of their clients, and the financial health of their respective practices."
