How Do We Treat Sports Injuries?

At our chiropractor, we treat the musculoskeletal system injuries using chiropractic care. This begins with a full evaluation to determine the exact cause of the pain and injury.Then chiropractic care can consist of specific spinal adjustments, stretches, manual therapies, as well as specific corrective exercises to complete healing and sustain recovery. We also specialize in Active Release Technique (ART) for soft tissue injuries.We also have a state of the art physical therapy suite for additional treatments.

How Does a Chiropractor Help Prevent Injuries?

By getting a regular chiropractic adjustment you can prevent injuries from occurring or reduce the amount of pain caused by injuries. This is thanks to the benefits of chiropractic care, which include increased nerve and blood flow and reduction in inflammation. Also, by visiting our chiropractor for the routine care we can monitor for signs of injury before these turn into painful situations.
