Exercise Smarter: How Chiropractic Can Serve You

By Genevieve Smith 

Unsure how chiropractic may serve you? Whether you’re looking to upkeep your joints or step up to the next level in your athletics, chiropractic is a great solution. Manual adjustments help lubricate joints and encourage them back in place if they’re slipping. Professional sports teams, such as those in the NFL, have chiropractors on staff, and studies support chiropractic’s benefits when it comes to easing lower back pain.  

Chiropractic Care Fundamentals

Some chiropractors specialize in an area, whether it’s pregnancy, nutrition, or pediatric. Other practices are more about general care and maintenance, such as at The Joint. That said, general care helps keep the body limber and agile, and is a great place for athletics in particular.  

Let Us Help You Win that Marathon

Chiropractic care helps athletes by encouraging proper joint placement, reducing the risk of injury, and speeding up recovery time should they get injured, by encouraging blood flow. Helping joints stay in top shape encourages endurance and functionality, and can help you reach your goals.

You’ll Get Farther if You Follow Instructions

Healthy joints happen both inside and outside the chiropractic office. Avoid inflammatory foods, practice any home exercises recommended to you, and be sure to train smart. For runners, that means owning two pairs of running shoes and switching between them bi-weekly for varied wear and tear, running different paths throughout the week on varied surfaces, and ensuring you warm up pre-workout and stretch after, and not the other way around. In general, never push beyond your limits, and always rotate what area of the body you’re working on throughout the week to reduce micro-tears.    

Manual adjustments encourage slipping joints back into their rightful place, enabling more efficient movement for your body. If chronic pain is holding you back from athletics, be sure to give chiropractic a try. The doctors are known for dispelling trauma and injury through working with your joints. If you’re looking to up your athletic routine and keep your body in the best possible shape, step into The Joint. The chiropractic team can lend a hand in anything from general joint upkeep to healthy limbs and relaxed muscles, encouraging your best possible workout. You'll enjoy increased blood flow to areas of duress, and the benefits of a professional helping your nervous system be its best.
