Chiropractic Care for Sport-related Injuries
Chiropractic care offers a holistic, non-invasive approach to treating sports injuries. Our chiropractic treatments can alleviate pain, enhance mobility, and improve function, enabling a quicker return to your sport.
Through chiropractic adjustments, we can realign your body to restore optimal function to your musculoskeletal system.
Aside from chiropractic adjustments, we also offer:
- Spinal Decompression – this works by stretching the spine, altering its force and position, which can help relieve pressure on the spinal discs—gel-like cushions between the bones in your spine. This pressure relief can promote movement of water, oxygen, and nutrient-rich fluids into the discs to facilitate healing.
- Laser Therapy – utilizing specific wavelengths of light to interact with tissue, this therapy accelerates the healing process. It can eliminate pain and swelling, reduce spasms, and increase functionality.
- Shockwave Therapy – this treatment uses shock waves to injured tissues to stimulate healing. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing mechanisms by increasing blood flow to the area, which accelerates tissue repair and cell growth.
- PEMF Therapy – aides in muscle recovery, circulation enhancement, and cellular regeneration, all crucial elements in the treatment of sports injuries.
How Regenerative Medicine Can Help Treat More Severe Sports Injuries
For more severe or chronic sports injuries, regenerative medicine can offer a revolutionary solution.
Regenerative treatments, including human cellular tissue injections and PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy, work by stimulating the body’s inherent healing mechanisms and repairing damaged tissue.
Human cellular tissue injections introduce cellular tissue to the injured area, promoting tissue repair and rejuvenation. The cells contained in these injections are introduced into the body at the site of injury or damage, where they can assist in repairing the affected tissues.
This is done by reducing inflammation, modulating the immune system, and facilitating the growth of new, healthy cells. This process can enhance the body’s natural healing ability, leading to quicker recovery and reduction in pain.
PRP therapy uses a concentration of your own blood platelets. The process involves drawing a small sample of your blood, which is then centrifuged to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the rest of the blood components. This PRP, which is rich in growth factors that stimulate tissue repair, is then injected back into the area of injury or damage.
These treatments can offer a viable alternative to surgery and provide long-lasting relief from severe or persistent pain associated with sports injuries.
