| More and more people today are committed sports and fitness programs in order to balance sedentary lifestyles and maintain health. Whether to prevent injury from occurring, or simply to enhance one’s athletic performance, Chiropractic combined with Applied Kinesiology is the perfect adjunct for both professional and amateur athletes alike. What types of injuries or sport-related conditions are treated successfully by Chiropractic?
What is meant by the ‘holistic approach’ to treating athletes?
Consider a case in which a Doctor of Chiropractic using A.K. is working with a runner suffering from chronic low back pain. The doctor’s aim is to discover the cause of the pain, not just treat the area of symptoms for temporary relief. Are there muscle imbalances due to an old ankle injury? Does the diet need to be modified? The back pain is often just the end result of a variety of imbalances that have developed over a long period of time. Only by analyzing the entire person can the problem be resolved at its roots. Is Chiropractic used by professional athletes?
Yes. Many professional and high-level amateur athletes depend on Chiropractic to protect them from costly, career-threatening injuries. Some of the more famous examples include Arnold Schwarzenegger, Billy Jean King, Joe Montana and Carl Lewis. What if I don’t have any sports-related injuries? What if I just want to enhance my performance?
Chiropractic is an excellent way to help one maximize their performance. Numerous studies have shown that Chiropractic therapy speeds up recovery time, improves balance and flexibility, and increases muscular strength. |
