Common Sports Injuries

If you are a professional athlete, amateur athlete, avid fitness participant or weekend warrior, we applaud your commitment to an active lifestyle. While most of the time, activity keeps people going, an unexpected injury may slow your progress or curb your efforts altogether. We want to avoid delays and return you to your favorite activities quickly and safely. Some injuries take longer to recover than others and after our chiropractors evaluate your condition, we give you a better idea of the duration needed to fully recover. Common sports injuries that chiropractic care is beneficial for, include concerns such as:

  • muscle strains- if you have pulled a muscle through overuse or improper technique, chiropractic adjustments position your body for the best healing
  • joint injuries- we care for a variety of joint injuries including shoulder pain, sprained ankles, knee pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, golfer's elbow and hip pain
  • concussions- if you are experiencing headaches, blurred vision or difficulties concentrating after a blow to the head, please visit our doctors
  • herniated discs- the fluid-filled discs between the vertebrae may leak out if subjected to heavy loads or impact injuries

Chiropractic Care for Sports Injuries

We have four locations, Spring Hill, Hudson, Brooksville and Homosassa to care for your injuries. Our chiropractors manually adjust your spine and joints to position them in the best alignment. When your neck and back are aligned, blood flow increases to and from your injured areas to reduce inflammation and pain. A joint that is positioned naturally is also stronger and less susceptible to further injury. Our chiropractors also use cold laser therapy to promote healing. The laser is applied to your injured area. You do not experience any discomfort since the laser is penetrating to deeper muscle tissues. The laser creates heat which increases blood flow and nutrients to the cells in the area. This speeds healing and reduces recovery time. We also provide decompression therapy to increase the amount of space between the vertebrae. This reduces pressure on discs and helps your body recover from disc herniations. Our health team provides corrective exercises to restore muscle strains by keeping the area strong and flexible.
