Sports Injuries


 

Midtown West NYC Sports Chiropractor Works to Restore Strength and Balance to the Muscles, Ligaments and Tendons Surrounding Injured Joints for Athletes

Sports Injury Rehabilitation in Midtown West NYC, NY: Athletes understand the demands of participating in their given sport. Putting their bodies through rigorous activities day after day can result in painful sprains, strains, tears and overuse injuries. The main reasons athletes suffer sports injuries include over-training, repetitive motions, failure to warm up properly, forceful impacts and not allowing old injuries to heal properly. These injuries can happen in countless ways depending on what activity or sport is being performed. It is important to take precautionary measures when it comes to physical therapy rehabilitation. Seeing our Midtown West NYC Chiropractors can help an athlete heal faster after suffering a sports injury and can prevent such future injuries.

Sports Injuries Can Cause Further Injuries if Left Untreated

Sports injuries can happen to the most physically active and experienced people. Oftentimes, these conditions are a result of injuries suffered weeks, months or years ago that never properly healed. Children and teens tend to ignore what they think are small injuries because they do not want to stop playing their sport. Ignoring these small injuries, however, can eventually lead to long term pain. Many sports injuries are treated insufficiently or aren’t given the proper time to rest and heal, increasing the odds that they will cause chronic pain later in life. This can lead to frustration and a decrease in athletic abilities.

 

Chiropractic Care is Beneficial for Anyone Who Has Experienced a Sports Injury

Once you start receiving chiropractic care on a regular basis, the effects of wear and tear on your body are slowed or are reversed in many cases.
