Throughout his football career Dr. Ledesma was able to remain remarkably healthy and uninjured. He contributed this to his weekly visits to a chiropractor. He says the weekly adjustments, combined with the soft tissue work, and rehabilitation were what kept him uninjured and on the field. His love for football combined with the help of chiropractors is what shaped his future.
