Why Chiropractic Care Works for Athletes
Athletes choose chiropractic care because of the many benefits it provides such as:
- Specific adjustments of the joint - restore proper movement patterns, improve the flow of nutrients to the joint, reduce inflammation, and promote healing.
- Faster healing - By restoring proper nervous system function, your body can communicate and heal more efficiently
- Improves performance - A properly aligned spine restores range of motion, and enhances coordination, focus, balance, and overall athletic performance
- Prevents future injuries - Regular adjustments maintain optimal biomechanics, reducing injury risk
- Requires no medications - Natural, drug-free approach to pain relief and recovery

Knee Pain
Whether you’re dealing with a runner’s knee, ligament sprains, or meniscus issues, our comprehensive treatment addresses both the knee joint and the support structures. In some cases, it’s even more important that we check the alignment of the spine, pelvis, and even ankles, which may affect knee function. Our thorough evaluation will identify any areas of concern.

Frequently asked questions
How soon after a sports injury should I see a chiropractor?
The sooner, the better. Ideally, get evaluated within 48-72 hours of injury. This early evaluation prevents compensatory patterns that can lead to chronic issues.
Will chiropractic treatment hurt if I'm already in pain?
Our techniques are gentle and specifically adapted to your injury and pain level. Many patients report immediate relief after treatment, though healing will likely take time and repetition.
How many treatments will I need?
Each injury and athlete is unique. After your comprehensive assessment, we will create a personalized treatment plan with estimated recovery timelines.
Can chiropractic care improve my athletic performance even if I'm not injured?
Absolutely! Many professional and Olympic athletes use regular chiropractic care to maintain peak performance and prevent injuries.
Is chiropractic care safe for young athletes?
Yes. We modify our techniques for athletes of all ages, and many youth sports programs now recognize the benefits of chiropractic care for developing athletes.
