Dr. Hawley has been involved with sports his entire life.  He began wrestling at age 12 and continued through high school and college.  It was an injury in this sport that led him down the path to becoming a Chiropractor.  Through his personal experiences he knows what a huge impact chiropractic care can have on the both on the amateur and elite athlete.

Throughout any given sporting activity there are going to be numerous “minor” injuries (ankle sprains, shin splints, lower back pain or shoulder injuries) that the athlete may just shake off and not worry about.  It is these injuries that manifest into a more complex injury that can lead to time off the field and decreased performance.  It is Dr. Hawley’s belief that athletes should get periodic chiropractic care throughout their sport's season to prevent these “minor” injuries from turning into a more complicated injury down the road.  Keeping the athlete's body healthy can lead to less time lost on the sidelines as well as increased performance in the game.
