Upon graduating from LSU, he attended Texas Chiropractic College where he received advanced training in the treatment and diagnosis of Neuro-musculo-skeletal disorders. Dr. Ben was the first in a group of chiropractic interns who did rotations treating athletes at Rice University, and later completed another 110 hours of schooling to become a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician.
He has a passion for athletics and he loves to treat and rehabilitate sports injuries to get patients back to their 100% as quickly as possible.
Dr. Ben Dichiara is the leading Sports Chiropractor in Metairie and New Orleans.
“I am also certified in Integrative Dry Needling, Active Release Technique, Graston Technique, and Kinesio Taping. All of these are soft tissue therapies that address several structures including the joints, muscles and nerves, as well as the interaction between these structures in the body.
As a Certified Chiropractic Sports Practitioner, I see a lot of sports injuries - from athletes to weekend warriors - and what I've learned is that many injuries are due to repetitive motion injuries. Interestingly, people who sit at a desk or are on their feet all day are susceptible to many of the same injuries.”- Dr. Benjamin Dichiara
He currently resides in Mandeville with his wife Ashley, and their 3 children Drake, Elise, and Luke.
