Chiropractic Care: Chronic and Acute Injuries can be treated and prevented
With ongoing CHRONIC PAIN, Pain stays active in our Nervous system for Months and sometimes years. This can be draining both physically and mentally.
The most common sources of pain stem from:
- Lower Back Pain
- Headaches
- Neck Pain
- Back Pain
- Joint pain
- Sciatica
- Tennis Elbow
- Carpel Tunnel Syndrome
- TMJ Pain
- Knee Pain
- Ankle and Foot Pain
- Sports Injuries
- Rolled Ankle
- Wrist/ Hand Injureis
- Pre and Post Surgical Pain
Generalized muscle or nerve pain can also develop into a chronic condition.
Chronic pain may originate with an initial trauma/injury or infection, or there may be an ongoing cause of pain. Some people suffer chronic pain in the absence of any past injury or evidence of body damage.
CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT FOR SPORTS INJURIES
From Canada to Australia, chiropractic has a long and vibrant history of treating recreational and professional athletes. To further their expertise in treating sports injuries and enhancing athletic performance, Doctors of Chiropractic can complete a two-year post-graduate residency program or Master’s that will enable them to assist their patients further.
Chiropractors are trained to assess, diagnose and manage sports-related injuries as part of their core competencies. In fact, through a comprehensive history and physical examination, chiropractors can help determine the cause of pain and dysfunction as well as recommend an appropriate plan of management. Conservative care offered by chiropractors, dependent on the injury and mechanism, may include joint manipulation and mobilisation, soft tissue therapies, adjunct modalities, rehabilitation and individualized exercises and lifestyle advice to restore proper function, enhance healing of damaged tissue and reduce pain. Chiropractors can also help, in partnership, determine the best strategy to return to play.
PREVENTING SPORTS INJURIES
Injury prevention is key. Before starting a new exercise program or sport, visit your chiropractor to determine what measures can be taken to prevent injury or enhance performance.
