Sports Injury FAQs

Sports injuries are very common due to the repetitive movements, running, jumping and tackling often involved. Your body can often easily receive injuries in painful tears and sprains as well as strains. It is a well-known fact that Beverly Hills Comprehensive Medical Group can help you heal quickly from any sports injury and we can also help you prevent future injuries as well.

What Causes Sports Injuries?

Sports injuries can occur in any sport no matter if it's a contact sport or not. The over flexing of a joint beyond the normal range of motion causes muscle strains. In contact sports, the main reasons for injuries are forceful impacts, overtraining, failure to stretch and warm-up, and repetitive motions. Chiropractors can help relieve the pain and inflammation of sports injuries to provide a much quicker recovery.

How do Chiropractors Help Prevent Sports Injuries?

Regular visits for chiropractic care can promote a better recovery time for all of your muscles after a game or a strenuous training session. At the same time, regular appointments can improve your balance and your performance in your sport of choice. Regular adjustments of your spine will ensure that your bones are balanced and lined up to relieve tension in your body and make you less susceptible to future injures. These techniques are commonly used to prevent injuries to the neck, shoulder, back, knee, and ankle.

What Should I Expect from a Visit to a Chiropractor?

A chiropractor will ask you about any health issues as well as perform an examination of your posture and spine along with your back, tendons, joints, and ligaments. Then the chiropractor will provide a treatment plan that is hand-tailored to suit your specific needs. You may have spinal manipulation where you are in different positions and then a manual impulse is applied to an affected joint. It releases the pressure in the joint and aligns all the joints and muscles in your body, so they work properly. You may also receive ice, heat or electrical stimulation depending on the type of injury.
