Chiropractic Care for a Sports Injury
Chiropractic treatment of sports injuries emphasizes enhancing the body's natural healing ability without reference to expensive and painful surgery or powerful chemical drugs and painkillers, some of which may be addictive. Chiropractors have different treatment options and techniques available, which have few or no side effects.
Treatment Options
We evaluate each of our patients individually, and work with them to develop a personal treatment plan for any sports injury. Some techniques available for the treatment of sports injuries include:
Chiropractic Massage and Adjustment
These are targeted to the specific areas of the body which have suffered trauma and designed to produce a specific result. Chiropractic massage can help relieve soft tissue injuries to muscles, ligaments or tendons. Since many sports injuries involve damage to soft tissue, massage can be used to help bring relief naturally to the patient.
Chiropractic adjustment focuses on joints which have been damaged or misaligned. A misaligned joint could be due to stress from an injury. Adjustment and mobilization techniques can help restore the range of motion and potentially reduce pain after an injury.
Corrective Exercises
These are designed to help restore natural motion to a patient after a sports injury. After an injury, a specific part of the body may feel pain or discomfort due to inflammation. The natural inclination of an injured person is to compensate, putting more weight or exertion into the part of the body which was not injured. Balance and body control exercises might help allow the patient to recover a more natural sense of movement through a regular regimen of activity.
