Sports Injury Treatment Escanaba, Mi

 Chiropractic care is an important tool in the arsenal of any athlete. It has been shown to help reduce injuries, speed healing time and improve performance. 

A study published in  the Journal of Vertebral Subluxation Research found a marked increase in athletic performance, after 14 weeks of chiropractic adjustments. The study shows that the effect of chiropractic care on the athletes was improved. Their conclusion states "it is evident that the changes were measurable in regard to physical strength and tests of athletic ability..."

Athletes under chiropractic care have shown faster reaction times, better coordination and achieve more accurate and precise fine motor movements, all of which contributes to better overall athletic performance.

There are a large number of high impact sports that can stress the vertebral column and lead to a subluxation of the spine. It is quite easy for your spine to become misaligned during a football tackle, getting checked in a hockey game, Training for a Tough Mudder or even swinging a golf club. When these things happen it can cause a disruption in the communication between brain and body, by putting pressure on your nervous system. This nerve pressure results in decreased Range of motion, slower reaction times, muscle aches and inflammation which all play a part in slowing the injury recovery time. 

Regular chiropractic adjustments during athletic training and performance times can and will reduce nerve pressure. Which will increase Joint flexibility, joint stability, improve Range of Motion and allow blood circulation to increase, which supplies muscles and organs with vital oxygen. What does this lead to you might ask? Better overall performance in your given activity!

Chiropractic allows you to perform better, no matter what age your are!
