If you play sports, you’re aware of the demands you place on your body, especially if you play a contact sport like football. Now that football season is here, it is important that you understand the benefits of chiropractic care for treating a variety of injuries that may occur during the course of the season, including strains, sprains, and muscle or ligament tears. Repetitive motions and forceful impacts may result in painful injury, which should be promptly treated to avoid lasting consequences.
Here’s how chiropractic care can help you heal from a sports injury:
- Relieving pain due to tension. Chiropractors specialize in the realignment of the spine. By stretching the spine, pressure is released from the joints, relieving pain caused by tension.
- Improving flexibility. Massage therapy, spinal realignment, and manual impulses on affected areas can improve flexibility to the injured area and promote healing.
- Preventing further injury. Injured athletes who turn to chiropractic care recover faster than those who do not. Regular chiropractic care also promotes better balance and overall performance.
Whether you are suffering from lower back pain or a shoulder dislocation, Atlanta Pain & Rehab offers a variety of services to not only treat the immediate symptoms of your injury, but also prevent further injury and promote whole-body wellness. If you have never seen a chiropractor before, now is a great time to schedule an appointment. Keep in mind that in order to reap the full benefits of treatment, you should see a chiropractor as soon as possible. Any delay could prolong the healing process or potentially lead to further complications.
