Common Sports That Cause Injury:


Cycling - Slouching while biking can up your chances of hurting your back. When you ride, your lower back moves a lot side to side and up and down. Your upper back can also get strained, especially your neck. Plus, all those bumps and jolts from the road can mess up your spine, maybe even squash it.


Golf - Lots of golfers end up with sore muscles or sprains in their lower back.

Running/Jogging - Running and jogging are tough on your back because you're constantly pounding it against a hard surface. This can shake up and squish things like your vertebrae, joints, and discs.


Skiing - Skiing involves a ton of twisting and turning, plus hard landings, which can strain muscles and maybe crack your spine a little.


Swimming - Swimmers often hurt their lower backs. Movements like the crawl or breaststroke can make the lower back bend too much. If swimmers aren't warmed up or in good shape, that extra bending might not go away.


Tennis - Tennis elbow is when the outside of your elbow hurts near the bone bump. It happens when the tendon from your elbow bone tears or snaps. Tennis players are prone to it because they put a ton of stress on their elbows during games.


They're always moving, and all that twisting and turning can lead to more injuries. They also risk hurting their shoulders, ankles, and knees. Serving the ball can even make their lower back bend too much and maybe squish their discs.


Weight Lifting/Bodybuilding - Bodybuilders have a high risk of getting seriously hurt in their back, shoulders, neck, and knees. Lifting weights can cause muscle strains, tendon and ligament injuries, and sometimes even stress fractures, especially in older folks because their bones and discs are more fragile.

Why Choose Chiropractic Care:


Choosing chiropractic care for sports injuries offers several benefits. Our non-invasive approach focuses on restoring function and mobility without relying on medication or surgery. With personalized treatment plans tailored to your specific injury, we address the root cause of your pain and help prevent future issues.


Chiropractic care also emphasizes holistic wellness, promoting overall health and performance.



Treatment From a Sports Injury Chiropractor:


Our treatment approach for sports injuries involves a combination of chiropractic techniques and modalities to promote healing and recovery. Spinal adjustments help realign the spine and improve joint function, while soft tissue therapy targets muscle tension and promotes circulation.


Additionally, rehabilitative exercises help strengthen muscles and improve flexibility to prevent re-injury. We also offer specialized treatments such as kinesiology taping and therapeutic ultrasound to enhance recovery and optimize performance.


Treatment Process:


During your initial assessment, our chiropractor will conduct a thorough examination to diagnose the extent of your injury and develop a customized treatment plan. Depending on the severity of your condition, you may require regular chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy sessions, and prescribed exercises to support your recovery.


Our goal is to help you return to your favorite activities as quickly and safely as possible, while also addressing any underlying issues to prevent future injuries.
