You don't have to be a professional athlete to suffer a sports injury. Many active adults experience recurring aches and pains that show up during activities such as:
• Running
• Golf
• Pickleball
• Hockey
• Gym training
• Cycling
• Hiking and trail running
Every visit includes an assessment of both the spine and extremities to identify movement restrictions that may be contributing to the problem.
Care is focused on helping you:
• Move more freely and efficiently
• Improve mobility and movement quality
• Recover more effectively
• Reduce recurring flare-ups
• Stay active without unnecessary setbacks
As a former professional lacrosse player, I understand the physical demands that sports and training place on the body. Years of competing, training, and managing my own injuries have given me an appreciation for how important movement quality, recovery, and durability are to long-term performance.
I have a particular interest in biomechanics and how the body moves during sport and exercise. Whether you're a runner, golfer, hockey player, pickleball player, cyclist, or recreational athlete, treatment is focused on identifying movement restrictions that may be affecting performance, recovery, or contributing to recurring injuries.
Questions About Sports Injuries
Yes! Chiropractors commonly assess and treat sports-related injuries involving the spine, joints, muscles, and nervous system. Chiropractic care may help improve mobility, reduce pain, restore movement, and support recovery so athletes and active adults can return to training, work, and recreational activities as safely as possible.
We commonly treat running injuries, throwing injuries, ankle sprains, sports-related concussions, shoulder pain, neck pain, low back pain, hip pain, knee pain, and rib injuries. We also work with active adults and athletes experiencing mobility restrictions or recurring injuries that continue to impact training, exercise, and performance.
The sooner an injury is properly assessed, the sooner an appropriate recovery plan can begin. If pain, stiffness, reduced mobility, or difficulty participating in your sport is not improving as expected, a chiropractic assessment can help determine what structures may be involved and what treatment options may be appropriate.
Not always. Complete rest is not appropriate for every injury. Depending on the condition, activity modification and gradual return to movement may be recommended. During your assessment, we will discuss what activities are safe to continue and which movements may need to be temporarily modified.
No! While athletes commonly seek chiropractic care, we work with people of all activity levels. Whether you enjoy running, golfing, pickleball, hockey, strength training, hiking, or simply want to stay active without setbacks, treatment is tailored to your goals and current abilities.
