Chiropractic Care: The Runner's Saving Grace

By Genevieve Cunningham

Running is a great habit. Though it's not for everyone, those who love running really get into it. They make it a habit. They buy the gear -- and then actually use it! They use it as a way to keep their bodies healthy, and also use it to stay mentally well. But running is not without its faults. Those who keep this habit often find their bodies in pain, and this makes keeping the habit a lot more difficult. Luckily for all the runners out there, there's help available for the pain! If you need to rid your body of running pain, take a look at why you should consider keeping chiropractic care in your life for good. 

Saving Your Knees

Running is hard on your knees. When your feet pound the pavement, it places a great deal of pressure on the knee. For many, it's enough to make them stop the practice altogether. But chiropractors may be able to adjust the knee on a regular basis and keep the pain away. They may also be able to give you exercises or stretches that promote better health in the knee -- and in the joints altogether. If you experience pain in the knees after or during your run, it can't hurt to visit the chiropractor for treatment or advice.

Prolonging Spinal Health

We need the spine to be healthy for our entire lives. The spine is connected to everything else in the body -- the immune system, your focus, digestion, and the list goes on. When we run, it can create tension in the spine. For some, it creates pain. Luckily, the spine is something that the chiropractor can definitely help treat. They'll use gentle manipulation to remove joint restrictions form the spine, which keeps it healthier and in overall better condition. If your goal is to keep running for years, then seeing a chiropractor can keep you moving forward. 

Easing Pain

Running can cause pain, and chiropractors are great at minimizing pain. When they remove joint restrictions from the body, it reduces tension and often reduces pain as well. In some cases, it completely eliminates the pain and even prevents it from returning. Keeping the body pain-free is a huge step toward keeping your running routine intact. Visit the chiropractor regularly, and your running routine is more likely to be comfortable.
