“I’ve looked after many elite sportspeople, and the only reason they’re able to maintain an elite function is by ensuring that their biomechanics and their neurology are working properly,” said Dr Hennessy (Chiropractor). His focus is not only addressing injuries but also about just making sure that the neurology and the mechanics are working as efficiently as possible.
