If you play sports, seeing a Tauranga chiropractor can help prevent sports injuries and also help to treat them. Here are some of the benefits that all sportspeople can enjoy from chiropractic clinic treatment.
Prevention
The main reasons athletes suffer sports injuries include forceful impacts, repetitive motions, over-training and failure to warm up properly. Be Balanced Chiropractic are skilled in ensuring that the spine is lined up and balanced which helps relieve tension elsewhere in the body and means you are less susceptible to injury.
Recovery
The physical impacts of any training and practice affect your spine and muscles. Our Tauranga based chiropractors can help athletes by relieving their pain and helping them heal faster after an injury. Spinal adjustments will reduce the irritation of the nerve roots between the vertebrae, shortening the recovery time from minor injuries.
Treats a Variety of Sports Injuries
Our chiropractors in Tauranga treat and can help prevent a range of injuries. This can include strains and sprains to muscles and joints as well as disc injuries. Conditions that chiropractors can help with include lower back pain, hip pain, neck pain, upper back pain, elbow/wrist pain, foot and ankle pain, and knee pain. Chiropractic adjustments can also provide immediate relief from headaches, another common ailment among athletes.
Chiropractic adjustments can help treat injuries from high impact sports, as well as relieving the strain placed on the body from low impact sports such as golf or tennis. Following chiropractic treatment athletes may notice improved range of motion, better flexibility and increased blood flow.
Non-Invasive and Drug Free
Chiropractic treatment helps sportspeople recover from injuries without the need for painkillers or invasive surgery. Our professional Tauranga chiropractor clinic takes a holistic view that good health and well-being are dependent on a functioning relationship between the nervous system and the spine, together with the body’s muscles, tissues, joints, organs, and bones.
