About Dr. James Werner

As a former hockey player Dr. Werner took for granted that he would always be able to perform at his best. Sports related Injuries not only cost him his competitive edge, but they also cost him his dreams of becoming a professional athlete. Through the frustration that ended his career it became clear to Dr. Werner that athletes need a way to conquer their injuries. This is when Dr. Werner began to study and practice sports performance-oriented chiropractic therapy. It is Dr. Werner’s philosophy that the job of a good performance therapist is to minimize the time lost to sports related injuries and to maximize an athlete’s performance on game day. 

Over the course of the last decade Dr. Werner has traveled across North America to intern, learn, and work firsthand with world class sports medicine clinicians, clinical researchers, and performance coaches so that he can help athletes protect their competitive edge. These travels have allowed him to work with National Championship programs like the University of Denver Hockey, Iowa State University Wrestling, and with national champions, professional athletes, and olympians.

Individualized Chiropractic Assessment

All of our patient work begins with an individualized chiropractic assessment. This appointment lays the foundation of care that each individual athlete receives. Dr. James Werner addresses athletic optimization in two ways; how efficiently our bodies produce energy and how efficiently we transfer that energy through the kinetic chain. (our bodies use the energy they have produced.) The result is a unique combination of cutting edge chiropractic treatment techniques that create repeatable and predictable results with professional athletes as well as weekend warriors. All treatments, rehab, and training is functional, corrective and specific to your needs and sport. Meaning lasting results in fewer appointments.
