Sports Injury Treatment From Our Chiropractor in Rockefeller

Sports Injury

At Rockefeller Health & Medical, we're proud to offer sports injury treatment as one of our many services. Our chiropractor in Rockefeller has been proudly serving the surrounding communities for more than 15 years and has established a reputation for compassionate, quality care. If you're an athlete who has been looking for an experienced sports chiropractor or if you've recently suffered a sports injury, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with us.

Common Types of Sports Injuries

Unfortunately, sports injuries can occur when you least expect them and can keep you sidelined for quite some time. Some athletes who suffer from sports injuries without prompt care and treatment may even suffer from long-term issues that affect their performance indefinitely. The specific injuries you're most prone to can vary greatly based on your physical health and the sport(s) you play, but there are a number of very common sports injuries that we see and treat in our office every day.

Generally, sports injuries will fall into one of two categories: acute or chronic. An acute injury is one that occurs suddenly and without warning, such as a sprain. A chronic injury, on the other hand, is one that develops steadily over time. These kinds of injuries are most often a result of over-use of a particular joint or part of the body.

Some of the common injuries our chiropractor 10036 sees regularly in athletes include:

• Strains and sprains

• ACL tears

• Tennis Elbow

• Runner's Knee

• Shoulder injuries

• Concussions

• Back and neck injuries

• Soft tissue injuries

How Our Sports Injury Doctor Can Help

If you're suffering from a recent athletic injury, our sports injury doctor may be able to help. We encourage you to begin with scheduling a consultation with our sports chiropractor, which will allow us to perform a comprehensive physical evaluation as well as get a better idea of your symptoms, pain levels, and medical history. From there, it may also be necessary to run diagnostic tests to confirm a suspected diagnosis, though this is not always the case.

Once we have a better idea of your injury as well as the extent of the injury, we can begin to develop a plan for treatment. All of the treatment plans we formulate in our office are completely customized to suit a patient's unique needs, starting with the need to find relief from symptoms such as pain, stiffness, headaches/migraines, and the like. Once we have your symptoms under control, we will work towards treating your injury at its source and taking additional measures to prevent future injuries. This is often done through the use of corrective exercises to strengthen areas of the body that may have fallen weak and lead to the injury in the first place. Our last step in treating a sports injury is to ensure long-term results and make sure you're ready to get back in the game safely.

There are a number of specific chiropractic treatments that our sports injury doctor may recommend, depending on your specific injury. Some of these include:

• Active Release Technique (ART) - a manual manipulation of the spine meant to improve mobility and treat issues related to poor spinal alignment and tissue damage

• Kinesio Taping - the use of special tape to improve joint and muscle stability without compromising range of motion in the process

Benefits of Chiropractic Care for Sports Injuries

There are so many reasons to consider chiropractic care for sports injuries, beginning with the fact that chiropractic treatment is holistic, drug-free, and non-invasive. As a result, athletes don't need to worry about the possible risks and side effects that can come along with treatments offered in conventional medicine, such as prescription medications/painkillers and invasive surgical procedures. Furthermore, because these treatments are non-invasive, there is no recovery time required and athletes are usually able to return to the game sooner. Treatment from our chiropractor 10036 also focuses on treating your pain and symptoms at their source, as well as preventing them from returning. Many other treatments only work to mask your symptoms and are not viable long-term solutions for your health.
