How Chiropractic Helps Sport Injuries In Winnipeg

By April Madrid


There is a constant risk of injury for athletes, particularly student athletes. Those who engage in constant sports have an even higher risk for come injuries like whiplash, which generally warrants chiropractic care.

Chiropractic care has been demonstrated to help with a lot of sports injuries. Football players are prone to whiplash. Ice hockey players often experience recurrent shoulder instability from the particular strains of their sport - which can be helped by a trusted and experienced chiropractor.

Injuries such as rotator cuff damage (common among those who play baseball), tennis elbow and sports hernia can be alleviated through chiropractic therapies.

Chiropractors are also trained to work with patients on improving their posture and this can sometimes translate to improvements in form that reduce the risk of future injuries. This is particularly true for runners - a chiropractor can help with biomechanics and posture issues.

In conjunction with your coach or personal trainer, they can help work on rehabilitative exercises - and they tend to have a philosophy of recovery that avoids extended rest. They also design personalized therapies that take into account lifestyle and the specific needs of the athlete, regardless of the sport that is being played.

Student athletes can be particularly difficult when it comes to complying with an order to rest, especially if it comes at a key part of the season. Many professional and college teams now have a chiropractor on staff full time.

Basically, a Winnipeg chiropractor can help players get back into the game, without their sustaining additional injuries and while reducing the risk of physical harm. There is actually evidence suggesting that routine care from a chiropractor can have a positive impact on sports performance. This is why it is so beneficial to consult with chiropractors after being injured or even prior to sustaining an injury. Irrespective of the sport you play, this care is great for injury prevention and for promoting a rapid and safe recovery.
