Sports Injuries

Dr. Hanson has been treating sports injures for decades.  He was the team doctor for the Toronto Argonaut Football team in Canada's CFL in 1971 and 1972, when Joe Theissman was their quarterback.  He also treated NFL players at that time, along with many NHL stars and Canadian Olympic team members.  In addition, he also treated weekend athlete's injuries from children to adults of all ages. 
 
Hanson moved to Denver in 1992, and one of his first patients was John Elway.  He treated Elway's throwing arm in just two visits, and since then has seen professional athletes from all of Denver's sports teams.  He is also one of the doctors for the Los Angeles Kings of the NHL.
 
Acupuncture is very powerful, and extremely effective in getting athlete's back into their activites.  Because it offers relief from pain and inflammation, it speeds the healing process, and gets the athlete back into full rehabilation quickly.

 
The ACHILLES TENDON STORY:
 
Wes Hart, of the Colorado Rapids of the MLS soccer league, started his opening game here in Denver.  He was running backward, and felt a sudden "snap" of his calf muscles.  He had a full rupture of his Achilles Tendon, which was subsequently sutured by the team orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Wayne Gersoff.  At this point, the standard medical course is to expect the full season off, and with a lot of luck and hard work, to expect the payer MAY be able to return to the field in 18 monts.  Wes Hart came in to Dr. Hanson twice weekly for medical acupunture treatments with electro-stimulation right through the ruptured part of the tendon.  With full supervision, including graduated exercises, full treatments by the team trainer, and follow-up MRI's, he was back on the playing field in a couple of months, and was able to start playing again just 16 WEEKS after his rupture.  He actually returned to the field in the SAME SEASON, which is unheard of with this devastating injury. 
 
So if you are a golfer, biker, hiker, or just an active person, consider medical acupuncture the next time you have an injury.  No side effects, quick results, and a fast return to full activities.
