Whether you’re a professional or amateur athlete, you know that even a minor sports injury can keep you away from practice and training and affect your ability to play sports. Our Tallahassee chiropractor can diagnose and treat your sports injury, as well as help with rehabilitative care and sports injury prevention.

Helping the Body Heal

By making sure that your sports injury is correctly diagnosed as quickly as possible, you’re ensuring that you have the best chance of fully healing and recovering from your injury and symptoms. Our chiropractor has access to diagnostic tools and imaging that can discover hidden injuries and determine the underlying cause of your symptoms, so he can design a comprehensive sports injury treatment plan that gets you back on your feet as soon as possible. 

Improving Stamina and Endurance

Our chiropractor will help you return to the game better and stronger than ever by making sure you fully heal from your sports injuries. Most rehabilitative exercises focus on strength training, which can improve your stamina and endurance. Chiropractic adjustments improve your balance, range of motion, and flexibility, which can make you stronger and faster when playing sports.

Reducing Risk of Future Injuries

Chiropractic care that focuses on building core strength, and improving training habits, diet and nutrition, exercise techniques, and overall lifestyle and habits will also guarantee you’re stronger and faster when you get back in the game, reducing your risk of accidents, sports injuries, and falls. 

Providing Drug Free, Non-Surgical Treatment Options

Most athletes who are recovering from a sports injury want to be sure they’re back in the game as soon as possible. Surgical intervention can increase your time out of the game by adding weeks or months on to your recovery time. Prescription drugs can have dangerous side effects that affect your ability to train and compete. Our chiropractor can offer safe, effective sports injury treatment that doesn’t rely on surgery or prescription medications.
