Write up from CSIT – International Workers and Amateurs in Sports Confederation Newsletter 2023

FICS provides a delegation of 23 Sports Chiropractic doctors and 2 chiropractic students to work align the medical teams supporting 5,000 PARTICIPANTS SPREAD ACROSS 7 CITIES AND 47 COMPETITION VENUES.

The below is an abstract from the CSIT games newsletter. Golden fingers help many athletes – thank you FICS

23 Chiropractors have their hands full. Dr Rainer Wieser is one of them and is on duty as a partner organisation during the 7th CSIT World Sports Games. “Our hands can clean up minor injuries as well as provide relief for more serious deformities” explains the 58-year-old doctor from Munich.

Under the direction of the FICS Chef de Mission, Dr Tim Ray from the US, the FICS team were in most venues and were enthusiastic to assist the athletes.

Dr Rainer Wieser has worked for the star football club Bayern Munich and at the Olympic Games (London 2012). “My fingers have already helped some prominent sportsmen,” he says. He only wants to name a few names for reasons of data protection. “I really helped the star striker Robbie Fowler and the multiple Olympic luge champion Georg Hacki a lot with my skills” But Dr Rainer Wieser, has always continued his education and is enthusiastic about the chiropractic level of all his colleagues working for FICS. “Our services are being accepted by more and more athletes. We literally have our hands full. And the feedback is consistently positive.”
