Sports Chiropractic

The performance of the body during athletics is more dependent on the correct functioning of the spine than any other part of the skeletal structure.

 

The majority of injuries sustained today in sport are due to repetitive strains that weaken the structural components, thereby predisposing the athlete to injury.

 

If there are mechanical weaknesses in which a vertebrae is out of position causing nerve irritation, the brain via the Nervous System, will not be able to successfully send the vital messages to the joints and muscles. The result is reduced strength and reflexes causing poor performance.

 

In the current athletic climate athletes are separated by tenths of a second, so that extra few percent will assist in their success. Chiropractic management provides the athlete with proven, natural methods of performance enhancement. Weight training injuries, winter sports, skiing or snowboarding, golf, tennis, rugby, football etc all can be treated.
