Effective Treatment for Common Sports Injuries

Trust Dr. Cain to provide comprehensive chiropractic care for common sports injuries, including:

Neck Injuries:

Neck injuries, such as whiplash, occur when the neck is quickly and forcefully pushed forwards or backward in a whipping motion. Contact sports should be approached carefully simply because there is a higher risk for whiplash. Damage to the spine around the neck region can cause inflammation, which can result in pain and limited range of motion. Dr. Cain uses gentle Chiropractic adjustments to help restore the neck back to its proper form.

Pinched Nerves:

Pinched nerve due to spine injury sustained from sporting activities can be painful. Dr. Cain has decades of experience providing chiropractic adjustment of the spine to relieve pressure on the nerve, which alleviates pain and allows the body to function better. Sadly, many patients suffer from pain for a prolonged period of time, when chiropractic care could have helped with their pain sooner.

Muscle Strain:

A muscle strain, often referred to as a pulled muscle, occurs when a muscle is suddenly pulled or twisted, resulting in a tiny tear in the muscle. Pulled muscles happen more easily around dysfunctional joints. When joints are moving properly, there’s less strain on the muscle, especially during physical activity, and it’s less likely to strain or tear.

Chiropractic care can help athletes at all levels achieve optimal performance and recover from a sports-related injury.
