Celebrities and Chiropractic
Richard Pryor, comedian
“Chiropractic work has helped me a bunch-in ways I didn't’t imagine. I walk better and I exit buildings better and I think I like myself more. My energy is a whole lot better, too.
Bob Hope, actor/comedian
“Chiropractic is a wonderful means of natural healing!”
Evander Holyfield, Heavyweight champion of the world
“I have to have an adjustment before I go into the ring. It came to the point where I wanted an adjustment everyday. I do believe in chiropractic. I found that going to a chiropractor three times a week helps my performance. The majority of boxers go the get that edge.”
Emmitt Smith, Football player, Superbowl Champion
“I go see Dr. Bill (chiropractor) when I get bent out of shape on Sundays. Playing in a football game is like being in 30-40 car accidents.”
Dan O’Brien, Olympic decathlon gold medalist
“You obviously can’t compete at your fullest if you’re not in alignment. And your body can’t heal if your back is not in alignment. It was the holistic idea that I liked about chiropractic and that is what track and field is about. Every track and field athlete that I have ever met has seen a chiropractor at one time or another. In track and field, it is absolutely essential. Chiropractic care is one of the things I think that no one has denied or refuted.”
“"If it were not for Chiropractic, I would not have won the gold medal."
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Governor of California/actor
“I am very fortunate to have, so-to-speak, my in-house chiropractor, Dr. Franco Colombu, as my own personal chiropractor. So, I visit Franco regularly, and he comes over to my house. He adjusts my wife, my kids, me, everybody gets an adjustment. And we feel always great when Franco leaves. Even when I have athletic injuries he's always there for me, and helps me. So it's really terrific, and I know that first hand. That's why I always will be traveling around, all over the world, talking highly about the profession of chiropractic.-“
Mel Gibson, actor/director
"You get hurt all the time. All you gotta do is just like eight takes of running down a hill and you twist an ankle," the action pic veteran tells TV Guide Online. "I got a chiropractor to come along to the [Patriot] shoot, because they can actually stick you back together within 15 minutes. He used to come every other week, from Los Angeles to South Carolina — spend a week and work on the entire crew. All the stunt guys were like, 'Oh, fix my disc.' He's putting their discs back in. The guy's amazing."
