If you're an athlete, you're always looking for the edge that will take your performance to the next level. No matter what sport you are playing, your competition is always getting faster, stronger, and bigger which means you have to constantly work towards improvement in order to keep up. While we sometimes hear of athletes using dishonest methods such as performance-enhancing drugs to get ahead, most focus on enhanced training concepts and nutrition to improve. One way athletes can improve is, perhaps surprisingly, through chiropractic care!

Improve Your Performance

When regular chiropractic care is part of the plan, athletes can expect to see an improved overall performance. Whether you are taking part in high-impact or low-impact sports, chiropractic can help. For high-impact athletes, chiropractic care can reduce the risk of injury and also reduce pain, whereas low-impact athletes can find relief from much of the strain placed on their body while playing their sport, like bowling, golf, or tennis.

Chiropractic care can help improve strength, stability, balance, range of motion, and flexibility. All of those factors combined can lead to a noticed improvement in athleticism. For those that play longer seasons or even year-round, that improvement will be noticed as the competition becomes fatigued or suffers from minor injuries. The ability to "stay fresh" all throughout the season provides an important advantage to most athletes.

Enhanced Injury Treatment

As an athlete, you've probably experienced an injury at one time or another, and you know that recovering both quickly and completely is incredibly important. Chiropractic care can help athletes recover from sports-related injuries just as it helps those suffering from auto accident related injuries. Spinal adjustments and corrections align the vertebrae so your muscles and tendons heal as they should. If you are experiencing any pain related to a past injury, chiropractic can help get to the root of the problem and correct the issue so the symptoms lessen or disappear.

How Does Chiropractic Help?

Whether you are seeking chiropractic care to help heal an injury or enhance your performance, chiropractic helps athletes by reducing the pressure put on the nerves in the spinal column. When the vertebrae of the spine are misaligned, the messages sent from your brain to various parts of your body may not be as clear as they should. When those impulses are restricted, your body is not operating optimally, causing your athletic performance to suffer. If you are looking to improve your athletic performance, give chiropractic treatment a try. Once the pathways between your brain, lungs, heart, and muscles are clear, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish!

"I was experiencing a lot of pain in my feet following the birth of my son. I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis in both feet. After seeing my PCP and being prescribed anti-inflammatory medication, I looked into the benefits of Chiropractic care. I was in so much pain from the plantar fasciitis that is because difficult for me to walk. I was unable to carry my newborn and walk because I was concerned for his safety. As part of my care plan, custom orthotics were recommended. Within days of receiving my orthotics I had a reduction in my pain. Regular Chiropractic visits and my orthotics have allowed me to be able to care for my son again!"

"I worked for Wal-Mart for 20 years walking on hard floors 10 hours a day. I felt a horrible pain in my right hip/buttocks area and could not bend or walk. My sister did a little research and recommended Healthy Life Chiropractic- They do EVERYTHING! After the first treatment, the pain was gone! After being educated on my problems, they worked on my whole body and it feels 100% better. I have never been a good sleeper, but I am sleeping much better and get up in the morning ready to go! I have never felt better!"

"My daughter came in to see Dr. Rob for possible curve in her spine. She was officially diagnosed with scoliosis after her evaluation. As parents, we were having a hard time wrapping out heads around what that meant for our beautiful 8 year old girl. Dr. Rob, Dr. Tina, and the whole staff at Healthy Life Chiropractic have been phenomenal! After 2 months of treatment- regular adjustments and exercises- we are seeing a huge improvement! Her hips are aligned now, her feet meet properly, and she is feeling better all around. We haven’t retaken her x-rays yet- not until we’ve done treatment for a whole year- but based off our experience, and results we’ve seen so far, I am confident that her curve has not gotten worse and has probably even improved!"

"I began my chiropractic care in October 2017 because of increased pain and decreased mobility in my left hip that had gotten increasingly worse over the previous 4-5 months. I love that I have been able benefit from whole body treatment that in turn has almost completely taken away the issues I was experiencing with my hip. I am so grateful for feeling good again and I highly recommend Healthy Life for your chiropractic care and total life wellness."

“The online store is wonderful. It is very convenient for those busy and always on the go. I love all the purchase options. From supplements to oils and even honey can be purchased from your computer or smart phone. I look forward to a search option becoming available as there are so many products offered.”

"I have been a patient at Healthy Life Chiropractic for over 3 years! After driving several hundred miles a week and spending time on the computer for work, I not only get regular adjustments, I utilize the massage therapists as well. I've recently begun using, with success, Standard Process supplements and Doterra Essential Oils. I appreciate the holistic approach to care by all of the staff at Healthy Life!"

-Debbie Fambro

"I have been coming to Healthy Life Chiropractic for over a year now. The treatments I receive give me such a relief of stress. The personnel is a big part of my relief. They are terrific and very professional. Dr. Tina is very educated in her field. Between treatments and supplements, I am feeling much better. I would, and have, recommend Dr. Tina to my friends."
