With Super Bowl XLIV coming up this Sunday in Miami, chiropractic has managed to make its way into discussion.
Arguably the biggest storyline this week is the health of the Indianapolis Colts star defensive end Dwight Freeney. Freeney tore ligaments in his right ankle in the AFC championship game against the Jets and made has been listed as “questionable” by his teams medical staff.
He made the trip down to Miami a little earlier and check out his quotes in the Kansas City Star:
“I have people out here, different chiropractic people,” Freeney said. “The main thing about coming down early was, if I took the flight on Monday, the swelling is still there. Coming down here on Friday, it gave me a couple extra days for the swelling to go down.
“I’ve had the chamber for two or three years. It helps me a lot with blood circulation. I’ve had injuries in the past, and it’s definitely helped. I’m doing everything imaginable. You name it, I’ve probably done it. Chiropractic, from oxygen chambers, to regular therapy, to ice, to everything.”

Freeney is generally regarded as the Colts best defensive player and you can be sure he’ll be discussed during the game regardless of his snap count. Keep an eye out!
So after all that talk about the Colts…Go Saints!
