Leading Sports Chiropractor in Walnut Creek with First-Hand Knowledge of What an Athlete Needs To Overcome Injury

Dr. Douglas Cancel leads a healthy lifestyle centered on strenuous exercise and strict nutrition. He eventually raised the bar further in his physical conditioning by incorporating strength training and cardiovascular exercise twice each day.

However, a mountain bike accident sidelined him. The unfortunate event caused him to sustain a fractured scapula and two broken ribs. Accelerated arthritic changes also occurred in both his shoulders. Despite this and the two failed shoulder surgeries he underwent, he remained unfazed.

These injuries opened Dr. Cancel to the various systems of manual therapy and physical rehabilitation techniques from around the world. With his body as a testing ground and laboratory for these treatment methods, he was able to experience first-hand the effectiveness and benefits of these treatments.

Rising from the injuries and setbacks, Dr. Cancel went on to become the 2001 NPC Masters Nationals Heavyweight Bodybuilding champion, making him the year’s top over-40-year-old amateur heavyweight bodybuilder in the United States. This also culminated in getting acquainted with elite athletes from various sports. The whole experience ultimately led him to become a leading Sports Chiropractor in Walnut Creek, CA.

Today, Dr. Cancel has incorporated all that he learned and experienced, providing the best possible treatments and quick results to his patients, including comprehensive chronic pain management and rehab and personal training.
