Complementary Sports Medicine Professionals
Another factor in today’s health-care environment sometimes makes it difficult to find a practitioner who is an ideal match. Many use a wide variety of assessment methods, therapies, and lifestyle recommendations not typical of their particular profession, with many using tools that at one time were found only in other disciplines. In the general arena of sports medicine, I’ve known dentists who used nutrition, podiatrists who treated not just the feet but the whole body, and chiropractors who prescribed drugs. In my own holistic practice, among the activities I was trained for and performed were neurological examinations, sports training, diet and nutrition, manual muscle testing, and various forms of biofeedback.
Because of this, it’s now more difficult to find a health-care professional based on his or her title (medical doctor, chiropractor, etc.). And it emphasizes the need to find out what services and products a particular practitioner offers.
It should be noted, however, that while many complementary therapies are still not fully understood, scientific scrutiny of the actual outcomes—how these methods work—have shown significant success. This is one reason for the relatively recent acceptance of these methods by patients and insurance companies. In addition, mainstream medicine has embraced complementary therapies with about half of medical schools and family practice residency programs now including the teaching of some of them.
