Chiropractic in Sports

Posted on February 27, 2011 at 8:44 AM

The focus of chiropractic in sports is to provide care in the conservative management, rehabilitation, and performance optimization of the neuromusculoskeletal system for athletic populations and to participate in a multi-disciplinary sports injury care environment.

Even before they are "sidelined" by a sports injury, many athletes are not functioning to their fullest potential. This is because malfunctions in the neuromusculoskeletal system causes the body to change or adapt other systems to "compensate". This compensation means that the body has to expend more energy to achieve the result it had before the malfunction. Range of motion, muscle function, coordination, and balance can all be affected. With correction, the athlete could experience improvements in these areas and, as a result, in overall performance.

Before you begin serious conditioning for a new sport, or after you suffer a sports-related injury, seek a full evaluation in the office. A check-up will discover any problems that could limit your athletic performance. Regardless of your sport, age, conditioning, or health, Chiropractic care can improve your athletic potential.

At Solano Spine & Sport Chiropractic, we have experience working with athletes from all levels.
