Orthopedic Sports Medicine
[ send me this paper ]
A 16 page paper discussing the state of evolution of orthopedic sports medicine. It often carries the remnant of the skepticism of years past, when those involved just seemed not to fit anywhere. The physicians involved in orthopedic sports medicine often were looked on as M.D.s that simply couldn't compete in the world of 'real' medicine, and the lay people involved as trainers and support personnel to the performing athletes were regarded as would-be athletes with the same disabilities. But times are changing. Orthopedic sports medical practitioners are being viewed as competent as any other M.D. in any other specialty, and sound research is contributing to the overall well of knowledge regarding injury, treatment options and patient outcomes. Bibliography lists 12 sources.

Physical Therapy: Health Trends
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Within the world of physical wellness, there are two very different approaches to the same goal: holistic and allopathic. The two vastly diverse programs offered around the world provide similar benefits; however, it is the road taken to achieve these benefits that greatly differ. Allopathic medicine is geared more toward the traditional, pharmaceutical therapy that has sustained throughout the centuries. Holistic medicine, on the other hand, utilizes a whole body, noninvasive approach to aid in the body's recuperation. Granted, both entities have their specific place within the innerworkings of overall wellness, yet their diversity maintains them as separate practices. The writer discusses that current trends, however, are showing a voluntary merging of the two applications to work toward a comprehensive approach to physical therapy. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Mandatory Drug Testing For High School Athletes
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page paper arguing that mandatory drug testing should be enforced and implemented. While it may seem as though this is an issue which consists of an invasion of personal issues, in light of today�s competitive world, there are many instances where drug use is a serious concern in high

inherent desire to achieve and succeed on their own resources. While the issue of drug testing may involve the use of mind-altering, illegal drugs, the main focus is on that of the use of drugs such as steroids used for enhancing performance in sports. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
