Improving Your Game with Chiropractic Care

By Donna Stark

No matter what the age or level of performance, athletes are always looking for that little extra something to improve their game. That’s because the competition is always getting bigger, faster, and stronger, so if they want to keep up, they can’t just sit on the sidelines and hope for the better. If you are an athlete, you may want to keep up with the rest as well, so you will need to find that extra something that will make a difference. And chiropractic care is just that.

Chiropractic Care for the Athlete

The importance of training, good nutrition, and proper sleep can’t be stressed enough when you are a competitive athlete, but let’s also not forget the impact that chiropractic care can have on your athletic performance. Many athletes improve their game through chiropractic care, and here’s why.

  • Injury treatment - Injuries are an unfortunate and often inescapable aspect of all sports, and recovering from them quickly and completely is critical for the competitive athlete. Chiropractic care helps athletes through this recovery process in a safe and effective way, completely avoiding the use of medications and invasive treatments. Chiropractic adjustments align the spine, which helps the injured tendons and muscles to heal correctly. And if a past injury is still rearing its ugly head, chiropractic care can help with that by getting to the root of the injury and correcting the problem.
  • Improved Performance - Athletes can also expect better overall performance with regular chiropractic care because their strength, balance, stability, flexibility, and range of motion will be improved with regular adjustments. Their athletic “longevity” will be a factor with their level of play as other athletes are likely to fatigue and suffer from injuries by the end of the season.
  • Reduced sick time - Chiropractic care boosts the body’s immune system, which helps to fight off illness and disease. It’s the perfect choice for athletes because it keeps them significantly healthier and stronger. No athlete ever likes to play while feeling under the weather and especially doesn’t like to come down with a severe illness right before the “game of the year.”

How Chiropractic Helps

Chiropractic treatments help athletes by positioning the spine in proper alignment and by removing any restrictions that cause interferences with the body’s communication system. The information sent from the brain to other parts of the body through the spine may not be as clear as they should be if there are restrictions. When this happens, the body is not operating at full capacity, and athletic performance and overall health can suffer.

So if you are truly looking for something extra, something that will take your athletic performance to the next level, try chiropractic care and come on in to The Joint Chiropractic. With more than 400 locations nationwide, and no appointment necessary, it should be easy to find one close to you and fit in a visit between training sessions and games.
