Why You Should Visit a Chiropractor After a Sports Injury

Written By Atlanta Spine and Wellness on May 16, 2023

Sports Injury

Even minor sports injuries have the potential to keep you out of the game for long periods of time. If you don’t want to interrupt your workouts, training, practice, and game time by being sidelined by an injury, our chiropractors can help with sports injury treatment in Chamblee, GA

Uncover Hidden Injuries

Our chiropractors have access to state-of-the-art equipment, including diagnostic imaging and laboratory testing, that can uncover signs of hidden injuries. They can also diagnose the root cause of pain, stiffness, loss of mobility, and other symptoms. A diagnosis will allow you a better chance at a full recovery, rather than just throwing prescription painkillers at the symptoms to mask them. 

Avoid Further Injury

When you get a sports injury treated right away, you can avoid further injury. If you keep playing through an injury, you risk doing more damage and even causing a permanent or chronic injury that could keep you out of the game forever. Our chiropractors can create a customized sports injury treatment plan designed to get you back in the game as quickly as possible.

Promote Faster Healing

Our chiropractors can stimulate the body’s natural healing processes through safe, non-surgical chiropractic care. Electrical stimulation, or e-stim, uses small electrodes placed on targeted areas of the body to deliver safe, pain-free pulses of electric energy. These pulses promote healing and stimulate the release of pain killing endorphins. Kinesio taping stabilizes joints, muscles, ligaments, and tendons so that they can heal properly without causing reinjury or further pain.

Drug-Free Pain Relief 

Surgical intervention and prescription drugs have a negative impact on athletic performance and put you at risk of side effects that will take longer to overcome than the injury itself. Instead, our chiropractors will offer physiotherapy and physical therapy to safely restore function, ease pain, improve mobility, promote circulation, and get you back in the game faster. 

Enhance Athletic Performance

Rehabilitation from a sports injury uses strength training techniques that will improve your speed and agility in the game. Chiropractic adjustments will improve your balance, and massage therapy will restore flexibility and range of motion. Dietary and nutritional counseling will ensure you have the proper fuel and stamina for training and game day.
