Chiropractors manage sports people of all abilities. However, if you are specifically looking for a more specialised approach to sporting needs, our Association has a group of members with a particular interest in this area.
The SCNZ (Sports Chiropractic New Zealand) is a formal subcommittee of the New Zealand Chiropractors' Association Inc. (NZCA).
The SCNZ has many aims and objectives including:
- be the peak national body representing Sports Chiropractic in New Zealand responsible for promoting the value of chiropractic in sport by liaising with other national sport and political bodies
- facilitate equitable access to chiropractic care for athletes of all sports, ages and abilities
- promote participation in sport and healthy lifestyle choices for all New Zealanders on the understanding that these factors contribute to the overall health and well being of the Nation
