Chiropractic care offers a great treatment option for those with sports injuries.

Being that chiropractors treat the joints and the soft tissues (muscles, tendons, and ligaments), the treatment protocol is very complete.

Chiropractors are the most highly trained professionals in the manual treatment of joint dysfunction. This is a huge benefit when it comes to treating sports injuries.

Sports injuries include problems such as ankle sprains, plantar fascitis, knee sprains, knee tracking disorders, hip pain, gait abnormalities, pelvic and low back sprain/strain, rotator cuff tears, elbow wrist and hand trauma, various neck injuries, and many other injuries that occur on the field of play.

Sports injuries are best dealt with when care is administered immediately, or at least as quickly as possible.

Too many times people injure themselves during sports activities and ‘shrug’ off the pain. Although ‘toughing out’ pain may allow you to continue with the sport for a period of time, sooner or later the injury is going to catch up with you. In other words, joint dysfunction and/or soft tissue trauma is seldom going to get better on its own and in most cases, if left untreated, the injury will get worse.  A mechanical problem (injury) needs a mechanical resolution, and chiropractic care is many times the best way to obtain a mechanical resolution.

The objective of treatment for sports injuries is to reduce the pain, improve the function, and rehabilitate the region of injury. By doing so, the athlete can get back to the playing field as soon as possible.
