See How Chiropractic Helps Sports Injuries In Winnipeg

By April Madrid


Athletes, student athletes in particular, are at constant risk of injury. Those who participate in full contact sports are at a special risk for injuries like whiplash, which require chiropractic care.

Chiropractic care has been demonstrated to help with a lot of sports injuries. Football players are prone to whiplash. Ice hockey players often experience recurrent shoulder instability from the particular strains of their sport - which can be helped by a trusted and experienced chiropractor.

Chiropractic care has also been shown to help with sports hernia, tennis elbow and rotator cuff injuries (a problem for baseball players).

A chiropractor can help people improve their posture, which may in turn result in improed form, which can reduce the likelihood of additional harm in the future. This is definitely the case for those who run - the biomechanics of good posture are taught by reputable chiropractors.

In conjunction with your coach or personal trainer, they can help work on rehabilitative exercises - and they tend to have a philosophy of recovery that avoids extended rest. They also design personalized therapies that take into account lifestyle and the specific needs of the athlete, regardless of the sport that is being played.

Student athletes can be particularly difficult when it comes to complying with an order to rest, especially if it comes at a key part of the season. Many professional and college teams now have a chiropractor on staff full time.

Basically, a Winnipeg chiropractor can help players get back into the game, without their sustaining additional injuries and while reducing the risk of physical harm. There is actually evidence suggesting that routine care from a chiropractor can have a positive impact on sports performance. This is why it is so beneficial to consult with chiropractors after being injured or even prior to sustaining an injury. Irrespective of the sport you play, this care is great for injury prevention and for promoting a rapid and safe recovery.
