Dr. Jason Abshire is a chiropractor who specializes in sports injuries. You suspect things are a little different when you examine the framed and signed photographs that hang in his reception area - six time IronMan world champion triathlete Natascha Badmann, pro triathlete and soldier Terry Butts, Kevin Castille (fastest man in the state, although he would never say it) and boxer "Bad" Chad Broussard. All four of these athletes attest to his prowess in helping them to heal from injuries. His modus operandi is myofascial release - the same technique an advanced massage therapist uses.
In my case, he helped me through a nagging injury. I am convinced he got me back running, and running pain free, much faster than if I had not seen him. An informal poll of local runners and triathletes reveals that many have seen him, and all were pleased with the results. Dr. Abshire has a comprehensive knowledge of the human body's workings as well as a passion for helping athletes get back to their training, a powerful combination.
The phone number for Dr. Abshire is 261 0100, and the office is at 913 S. College (near Bacque Crescent, between W. Bayou Pkwy and Johnston St.). If you have any questions about Dr. Abshire and his approach, you can e-mail me, and if I can shed any light, I will.
