Sports Injury Care Cincinnati OH
From high school and collegiate athletes to weekend warriors and avid CrossFitters, athletes of all ages and levels will inevitably experience a sports injury at some point. At Cincinnati Rehabilitation Center, we can address all types of sports-related injuries. These include sprained ankles, knee pain, shoulder problems, plantar fasciitis and others.
Benefits of Chiropractic Care
Here are some of the primary benefits that athletes can experience by getting chiropractic care:
- Enhances performance
- Relieves pain
- Helps prevent injury
The Importance of Removing Dysfunction
“I like to talk to my patients about biomechanic chains—one from the fingertips to the neck and one from the toes to the low back. We’re looking for any dysfunction or kink in that chain that can be affecting the rest of the chain up or down,” said Dr. Bradford.
Removing dysfunction is a big part of how our chiropractor practices in general and that’s how he would approach any athlete. Why is that important? Because dysfunction is going to lead to whatever’s causing a patient’s pain or symptoms. Removing that dysfunction also can help to improve their performance.
If a pitcher’s shoulder is painful, there might be restricted range of motion. Chiropractic care can help get rid of the pain once we remove that dysfunction. The pitcher also can enjoy free shoulder motion for improved pitching mechanics.
Runners
A spinal misalignment not only can affect a runner’s back but their hips, knees and feet. Chiropractic can restore alignment, help prevent injuries and allow runners to perform optimally.
As CrossFit has exploded in popularity, more and more people are engaging in this rigorous sport. Because CrossFit workouts are intense and include weight lifting, aerobics and calisthenics the potential for injury is high.
Many CrossFitters choose to get regular chiropractic care because they know it’s effective in helping to minimize injury.
