Our Charlotte Sports Chiropractic Clinic Works with Athletes of All Different Levels and Backgrounds to Recover from Repetitive Motion Sports Injuries and Improve Their Athletic Performance
Sports Chiropractor in Charlotte, NC: 
Athletes understand the numerous demands of participating in a sport. Putting your body through activities such as running, jumping or tackling can result in painful tears, sprains and strains. Visiting our state-of-the-art chiropractic and physical rehabilitation center in Ballantyne, Charlotte can help athletes heal faster after suffering a sports injury and build strength to prevent them.
Sports Injuries Can Limit Performance and Cause Pain:
The main reasons athletes suffer sports injuries include forceful impacts, repetitive motions, over-training and failure to warm up properly. This can happen in countless ways depending on what activity you are doing or what sport you are participating in. It is important to take precautionary measures, but injuries can sometimes happen to the most physically active and experienced people. These conditions are often a result of injuries that did not heal properly, whether they were suffered months, years or even decades ago.
Children and teens tend to ignore what seem to be small injuries when they are active. If an injury is left untreated, this can lead to chronic pain in other areas that may not even be directly related to the focal point of the injury. Some of these other areas include the knees, hips, back and neck. Many sports injuries are insufficiently treated or aren’t given the proper time to rest and heal, which increases the odds that they will cause chronic pain later in life. This can lead to pain, frustration and a decrease in athletic abilities.
Common Conditions as a Result of Repetitive Movement Sports Injuries:
- Swelling
- Burning, Dull Pain
- Headaches
- Muscle Pains
- Inflammation
- Muscle Spasms
Sports Injuries Can Lead to More Serious Conditions if Left Untreated
Although many people think that chiropractic is solely limited to the spine, Dr. Maul and the Charlotte Chiropractic and Rehab team treat and help prevent injuries of the neck, back, shoulders, knees and ankles. When the spine is perfectly aligned, this can alleviate tension in the body, decrease inflammation and allow the nervous system to function optimally.
Vital nutrients, water and blood can travel throughout the body easily when the spine is aligned. An aligned spine can also increase the immune system, which is ideal for anyone with a busy and active lifestyle. This allows the body to function better and become less susceptible to injury.
Our team can help athletes by relieving their pain and helping them heal faster after an injury. Many athletes try to mask pain with medication, but this can lead to further risk and damage to the body. At Charlotte Chiropractic and Rehab, we will perform a full evaluation. Our dedicated team will construct a customized treatment plan to get you feeling your best and back to doing what you love.
